A nice spacious relaxing welcome center. Mississippi does a good job taking care of their Welcome Centers and making them presentable. A pretty spread out rest area.

This is a nice rest area and welcome center with a friendly pair of women working inside. It was a nicely laid out rest area and was enjoyable to walk both outside and inside the rest area's building. It had some interesting wood sculptures of animals. This rest area is a nice introduction to the state of Mississippi and if you are traveling down Interstate 10 and are coming into Mississippi from Alabama, I would recommend that you stop in this Mississippi Welcome Center.

down and to the right...

okay? okay... for a change I'm in during daylight hours but maybe mid-morning isn't daylighty enough for anyone to be here greeting me, or maybe it's too close to the day before christmas-eve day? whatever the reason I didn't see anyone inside and the doors didn't open so just a quick trip around back for well, you know...

Mississippi Welcome Center, there's a picnic area with shady spots

Five stars for the staff here. I had only intended to poke my head inside and see what was about but the staff was extremely welcoming. The very nice lady (Barbara?) asked me where I was headed and what interested me when I got there. She fetched brochures and maps and all sorts of great information about Biloxi and what I need to do. I had a handful! The staff here is wearing masks but guests are not required to do so. I was wearing mine. There was also a hand sanitizer station available. I did not visit the restroom today. If you're visiting Mississippi, stop here and let them help you!

Clean and pretty. Representing your state well. Good job, Mississippi! I will stop here again for sure!

Great rest stop. Have stopped here twice. First time we had to park near wildlife refuge trail head. Haven't actually used the dump but the whole place is pretty. The trail is about a mile long and a perfect quick place to walk your dog. Spots fill up quick if you are in an RV.

This is a short review because I just pulled over just to walk my (Millie) It's Memorial day weekend and this is a very nice rest area so I was glad it was open. The outside was very well manicured and clean; it was a hot day so I didn't check it out too much. It's a pretty popular spot the parking lot was packed but not overcrowded. On the road again. Nap time for Millie.

Wait what, Neil Young wasn't born here was he?

Mr. Hippe got married. To Mrs. Hippie. Get it. Mississippi. I have fond memories of this particular rest stop, because when I was driving down south and I stopped here - after a night of non-stop driving with the Cars full of cats - and I had to keep driving and try to get to Houston before the temperature got really hot - because I had no air conditioning. I didn't want my little fur babies to overheat. So I stopped here in the middle of the night and took a short break, tried not to fall asleep, and then hit the road again as fast as possible. I think it's a nice rest area, but no food options here except awful vending machines.

This welcome center has a variety of pamphlets and information about activities in the state including the resorts, rentals, and hotels near the coast. The restrooms are clean and there are vending machines with beverages and snack items. The entrance is easy to access from the Interstate

A beautiful tribute to the friendly folk of Mississippi, the flower gardens, the beautiful architecture, immaculate restrooms, renditions of historic art from years gone by awaits you here at the Mississippi Welcome Center and you'll also be greeted by some wonderful volunteers serving up fresh hot coffee, so be sure and plan your travel well and stop in between 9 AM and 5 PM or just keep on driving to the next exit and choose your freshening station well cause it ain't gonna look nothin like this place...

Let's be honest. We don't stop at Welcome Centers just across the state line to feel welcomed. We stop to pee or poop. Since that is why we really stopped, I'm not going to tell you about the beautiful flowers that were landscaped around the front of the building. I'm not going to tell you about the dead trees that were killed during Hurricane Katrina and instead of cutting them down, they were turned into art. I'm not going to tell you about the contemporary artist Marlin Miller and his son who sculpted the art into the trees. I'm also not going to tell you that there is a free sculpture map located inside the welcome center for a sculpture tour along Hwy 90. In addition, I'm not going to tell you that the MWC has free coffee during operating hours (8-5) and free wifi if you need to get online. Nope. I'm not going to tell you about any of those amenities and attractions. I will, however, tell you that the bathrooms were clean and had an attendant on duty to clean the place after you take care of your duty. Bottom Line: It's clean and a great place to take care of your business.

Beautiful inside this welcome center!

Really nice welcome center. If you are just driving through Mississippi, come in here to get a quick history lesson!

Great place to clean spilled snacks
