Hotels in Holly Springs

Behind the grand columns of antebellum mansions lies a town where history feels remarkably present rather than preserved. The Southwest Holly Springs Historic District showcases architectural treasures that survived Sherman's march, while the Ida B. Wells-Barnett Museum honors the fearless journalist in her former home. Wander through Hillcrest Cemetery, the 'Little Arlington of the South,' where Confederate generals rest beneath ancient oaks. The Marshall County Historical Museum displays artifacts from more genteel times in rooms that creak with stories. For a breath of fresh air, visit Wall Doxey State Park with its cypress-rimmed lake. After golf at Kirkwood National, settle onto the courthouse square where locals still gather to exchange news as they have for generations.
