Description

3 nights/ 4 days of Southern hospitality, a private fishin' lake, soul food, campfire jams, horseback riding, and juke joint Mississippi blues at Silver Ash Ranch in Potts Camp, Mississippi.

Silver Ash Ranch is a 187 acre artist's retreat abutting Mississippi's Holly Springs National Forest. This artist-owned rustic escape is less than an hour from downtown Memphis, TN or 30 minutes from the art/university town of Oxford, MS (both great day trips).

Silver Ash Ranch is great place to get away from it all, or jump into the local blues scene head first.

  • 3 nights of accommodation in the renovated "stable" rooms for 2 people. Room upgrades available depending on availability for additional cost.
  • 2 round trip coach tickets in the continental US to Memphis International Airport on airline TBD.
  • 2 meals/day for 2 people at Silver Ash Ranch + access to the stable room garden kitchen.
  • 2 hour horseback riding lesson for 2.
  • Lunch for 2 at the famous Southern style Annie's in Holly Springs, MS
  • Dinner for 2 at the one and only Southern eatery Flick's BP in Potts Camp, MS.
  • Boats and fishing pole usage
  • 2 tickets to the Marshall County Museum
  • 2 tickets to Jerry Bolden Rodeo (if going on during guests' stay)
  • Wireless Internet connection on ranch
  • Quite possibly fishing with Cedric Burnside, monster drummer and grandson of the late RL Burnside!

Some recommended times to visit include:
  • Kudzu Festival (First week of June), rodeo, carnival, crafts
  • Holly Springs Pilgrimage
  • According to our sponsor, a great time to come to Silver Ash Ranch would be during the North MS Hill Country Blues Picnic, June 29-30. Check it out!
