Make the Most of Your Oxford Stay

Literary heritage meets Southern sophistication

Oxford earned its nickname "The Velvet Ditch" because visitors arrive and never quite manage to leave. This university town centers on a historic square anchored by the 1872 Lafayette County Courthouse, where independent bookstores and James Beard Award-winning restaurants occupy Victorian storefronts. William Faulkner's Greek Revival home, Rowan Oak, sits just south of town, its rooms preserved exactly as the Nobel laureate left them, with his novel outline still visible on the study walls.

Elevated Southern dining and collegiate traditions

The culinary scene rivals cities many times Oxford's size, led by chef John Currence's City Grocery and the wood-fired Italian fare at Saint Leo. The University of Mississippi defines much of the town's rhythm, particularly during fall when The Grove transforms into perhaps the nation's most sophisticated tailgating venue, where formal attire and fine china are standard practice. Beyond football Saturdays, the arts community maintains a literary culture that continues to attract writers and artists.

Practical considerations for your visit

Memphis International Airport sits 75 minutes north, making Oxford an easy addition to Tennessee travel plans. The compact downtown allows you to walk between restaurants and shops, though you'll want a car for visiting Rowan Oak. Members can use miles to book accommodations at properties like The Graduate Oxford, positioning you steps from the square's dining and cultural offerings.
