Seminary, MS

Seminary is a small Covington County town known for its quiet, rural pace and friendly community. The town originally grew around a 19th-century boarding school, and local life is still closely tied to the area schools and youth sports. It is also famous across south Mississippi for Okatoma Creek, where locals and visitors spend weekends canoeing, kayaking, and floating past the falls. Sitting right along Highway 49, Seminary offers a peaceful country setting with an easy 20-minute drive south to Hattiesburg for work, dining, and healthcare.
