| Mississippi - DeSoto County marks the spot: Riches, treasures, delightful discoveries.
In 1541, heading west in his search for gold and a passage to China, the explorer Hernando DeSoto camped in what would later become the northwest Mississippi county bearing his name. Today, more than four centuries later, DeSoto County offers another vital passage all its own. As the southern gateway to Memphis and the northern gateway to the Mississippi Delta, this scenic county has once again become a highly prized base camp for eager explorers lured by riches and treasures. And, as for DeSoto itself, it’s here that today’s explorers have found a truly delightful discovery—a fun-filled, value-packed destination that puts them in prime position to get the very best of the region. |
Explore. Dream. Discover.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
