A Winter Break

A February 2004 trip to Philadelphia by tigges

Quote: We needed a break from the Iowa winter and didn't want to go too far, but wanted someplace warmer than Iowa. So we decided to take a break to the Pearl River Resort just outside Philadelphia, MS. What a great place!

The rooms are very nice, spacious, and include a coffee maker, refrigerator, and blow dryer in each room. It is very modern and we had a beautiful view out of our window.

Chef''s Pavilion

Restaurant

Quote:

While we were there, they had a special at the Chef's Pavilion, which is one of the buffets at the resort. They had what they called the "Belly Buster Buffet" for $2.99 every day for two weeks. The buffet was great and the deep-fried catfish was really good. They know how to make catfish in the South!!

Gambling in Mississippi

Story/Tip

Quote:

Pearl River Resort is a great place to go for a few days, especially if you enjoy gambling. There are two very large (Las Vegas-like) casinos, each with its own hotel. They are connected by a walkway over the highway. These casinos are very modern and have a large variety of slot machines and table games. Everyone was so friendly and personable. It was a great winter getaway for us.
