The Cozy Cabin Where You Can View the Best Fall Foliage in Mississippi

Kick back and relax while surrounded by Mississippi's beautiful fall foliage.

Catching the fall foliage in Mississippi is a tricky task. Our friends in the north will start seeing the colors turn in the next few weeks, but Mississippi tends to arrive fashionably late to the festivities. Mid-October to mid-November is the general ballpark, but one poorly-timed cold snap could change that! I always feel like we see the peak fall foliage in Mississippi closer to the beginning of November. 

Even though we still have a few weeks to go before we start seeing those beautiful fall colors in Mississippi, we can use that time to start planning our fall adventures! Hopefully, you'll carve out some time this year to see the fall foliage in Mississippi.

I enjoy northern Mississippi for leaf-peeping—especially the northeast area. If you’re thinking about checking out the fall foliage in Mississippi this season, this scenic Airbnb is the perfect place to call home while you explore. 

This cabin in Iuka, Mississippi has three bedrooms, and two bathrooms, and can accommodate up to eight guests comfortably. There's plenty of space to sprawl out and yet you're still secluded enough to enjoy your natural surroundings.

While the kitchen is fully stocked and ready for you to cook whatever you'd like, there’s also a charcoal grill for BBQ and a fireplace for cozy campfires and roasted marshmallows. We all know the best parts of fall (besides the fall colors) are the campfires and crisp air.

The back porch is where you’d find me 24/7. I love the tree-top views and the glimpse of the lake just beyond the trees. 

Both JP Coleman State Park and Tishomingo State Park are nearby. These are great natural areas to enjoy the fall foliage. If you have a boat, I highly recommend visiting JP Coleman State Park and seeing Copper Falls. It’s only accessible via boat, but it’s just a short boat ride from the park. It’s a beauty when surrounded by various shades of yellow, orange, and red!

Woodall Mountain is also nearby, and this lovely little spot just so happens to be the highest natural point in Mississippi! Take a drive over and catch a tree-top view from your windshield--no hiking necessary!

Even though we’ve still got a few weeks before the colors change, you can start planning your leaf-peeping adventures now.
