As August draws to a close, football takes center stage, especially in college towns, and ESPN recently named Oxford, Mississippi, as the number one college town in the country.
In a recent video segment, ESPN tweeted, “The Grove is an unbelievable Game Day atmosphere. What is your favorite college town?” with a video and graphics proclaiming Oxford as its top college town. Oxford edged out Athens, Georgia, another Southeastern Conference university town, as the nation’s best college town.
The Big 10 rounded out the rankings with Madison, Wisconsin, in third, and Ann Arbor, Michigan, fourth and State College, Pennsylvania, placing fifth.
With Splinter Creek located just 8 miles from Oxford, it's the perfect way to enjoy the best college town in the country, as well as a place to retreat from the crowds. We look forward to welcoming you to experience Splinter Creek this fall. Email info@splintercreekms.com for more information or to schedule a tour of our 650 acres and 3 private lakes.
