I live in Slidell and often take cruises eastbound to the Gulfport in my car. Even though it is a rest area, this welcome center is one of my favorite places to stop and stretch my feet and maybe get a soft drink. They have well kept bathrooms that are well lit and comfortable. There are lots of places to get out with benches, pavillions and trash cans. There are really pretty live oaks and pines all over the grounds. The interior is very Southern. The people who work here are very friendly and helpful. There are lots of places to sit inside and get off your feet. It is very comfortable and«cozy» in the building itself.

24 hour restrooms with security. Big, shady rest area with vending machines. Nicely maintained, but restrooms kind of worn.

I always stop at welcome centers when crossing the border into the next state. Basically they are all wonderful advertisements for the state you are entering. THik about it, if the welcome center is not welcoming why would you want to spend a day or a night in the state you are entering. Sooo… the Mississippi welcome center is quite welcoming. with small displays of things going on in Mississippi and freee maps, and lots of flyers about things to do in various areas of the state and clean nice restrooms and very friendly people and … and that is what a welcome center is all about. And a bid parking area and park like setting for that lovely southern afternoon nap!
