A warm welcome awaits visitors to the family-friendly Mississippi city of Hattiesburg.

Founded as a train depot in the late 1800s, today it’s famous as a university city with welcoming hospitality.

The streets of Hattiesburg’s Historic Downtown District are a good place to start your visit. They reflect an evolution from a railroad town to an energetic city. Spot historical landmarks such as the Old Federal Courthouse and Hattiesburg Train Depot. Watch live music and theatrical productions at the art deco-style Saenger Theater. Step inside the Library of Hattiesburg to see the The Spirit That Builds mural, which depicts scenes from the city’s history.

Walk or bike through the scenic landscapes of the Longleaf Trace. This 40-mile (64-kilometer) trail travels along a former railway between Hattiesburg and Prentiss. Spot myriad birdlife, deer and raccoons or relax at the designated picnic areas. Alternatively, get close to African and South American animal species at Hattiesburg Zoo.

"The property was very clean and inviting. Chris was very friendly. I don't like the new computers they didn't work. Happy hour wasn't so happy, why feed adults peanut butter and jelly, no one came down to socialize. Need something more appealing to draw people to come and socialize."
