Mississippi in full bloom 🌷🌸💐

From concerts to festivals, your perfect May getaway is waiting for you

Did you know the Teddy Bear was inspired by a real bear in Mississippi? 🧸 In 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt refused to shoot a captured black bear during a hunting trip, calling it unsportsmanlike. The story made national headlines and inspired the creation of “Teddy’s Bear”—now one of the world’s most beloved toys. Read the full story at the link in our bio!

The Elvis Presley Birthplace is one of my favorite spots in Mississippi—not even because I’m a huge Elvis fan, but because the grounds are so peaceful, beautifully maintained and reflective.

You can visit the Birthplace grounds, just 1.5 miles from downtown, for free or pay admission to tour the modest two-room house where Elvis and his stillborn twin were born, the church that helped shape his love of gospel music and the museum. The Presley family lived in Tupelo for the first 13 years of Elvis’ life before moving to Memphis. If it’s your first visit, I definitely recommend the tour.

But even if you’re just passing through on a quick stop—or making your way to Graceland an hour and a half north—it’s worth pulling over to see the grounds where the original home of the King, Elvis Aaron Presley, stands.

🇺🇸 So many reasons to visit Clarksdale, Mississippi. This town is a feeling that’s hard to describe. They say, “there are more characters than Sesame Street. When you arrive, you become part of the cast.”

🎸 Clarksdale is all about the blues and a close-knit community. Hear live music every night, find murals on brick walls, stand at the Crossroads, and dive into the Delta Blues Museum.

Eat BBQ and hot tamales, sip a Red Panther pint, grab coffee with purpose at Meraki, and wander the Sunflower River Walk. Visit the Hopson Plantation, historic ‘green book’ roverside hotel, and time it for Juke Joint Festival.

💙 Come for the music, return for the people. That’s Clarksdale.

POV: You’re eating your way through the Deep South 👀

From the barbecues and smokehouses of Mississippi, to the Cajun spice and Creole flavours of Louisiana…

We chomped, we chewed, we learned to peel crawfish and scranned shrimp & grits out of the back of a truck.

Because eating in the USA is a whole other world - so warn your waistband and brace your blood sugar 😍🇺🇸😮

📍 Clarksdale, Jackson and Natchez in Mississippi
📍 Lafayette & New Orleans in Louisiana

Previous press trip with @visitnatchez @visitms @ttmworld @deepsouthusa @visitusauk

Mississippi far exceeded all expectations - this is one of the most underrated golf destinations in America.

From the marshland views along the Gulf Coast to the pine-covered corridors of @dancingrabbitgolfclub, @grandbeargc and @windance_country_club, this trip last month quickly became one of the most memorable golf experiences I’ve had in years.

What stood out most to me wasn’t just the golf itself, though there’s tremendous variety, value and architectural character throughout the state, but how complete the experience felt: great people, INCREDIBLE food, fun casino resorts, historic towns, beautiful landscapes... And golf that deserves far more attention than it gets.

I published a new feature on #wiscogolfaddict that dives deeper into the trip, the courses and why I believe #mississippi #golf deserves a closer look.

Which course would you want to play first, and what did we miss out on during our visit?
