Around & About Ripley
A charming small town located in Tippah County, Mississippi, Ripley is the heart of the county seat. With a modest population of just under 6,000 residents, Ripley is a quintessential small southern town located in the northern part of the state, just north of Tupelo.
Once the site where Confederate soldiers battled during the Civil War, history buffs will enjoy spending time with locals who are willing to share stories of their Confederate ancestors over an ice cold glass of sweet tea on warm summer days.

Tupelo, Ms - Elvis Presley's Birthplace
The most significant landmark of Tupelo's modern history is a modest, two-room house where the King of Rock & Roll was born on January 8, 1935. From this humble beginning, Elvis Presley began his swift rise to become the world's most popular entertainer. The house where Elvis was born, built by his father with $180, draws over 50,000 visitors each year from across the world.
Tupelo bought the house and land with money provided from a 1957 Tupelo concert by Elvis himself, who wanted a park for neighborhood children. As an official Mississippi landmark, the birthplace of Elvis is part of the 15-acre Elvis Presley Park. It includes expansion of the main parking lot to accommodate motor coaches, a garden walkway system, new entrance signs, an expanded gift shop and beautiful landscaping.
