With some awesome road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore everything that Tupelo, 50 miles away, has to offer. Elvis Presley Center, Tupelo Buffalo Park and Tupelo Automobile Museum alone make the drive out here worthwhile. Locals will also probably point you toward Florence, 50 miles away. If you only have time for one attraction here, make sure it’s Renaissance Tower. (But we’d also highly recommend Frank Lloyd Wright Rosenbaum House and Regency Square Mall.)
