Horn Lake

In the American state of Mississippi's DeSoto County sits the city of Horn Lake. The location is 1.9 kilometers (1.2 miles) south of Memphis, Tennessee.

Southaven, a city, abuts Horn Lake to the north, east, and southeast. The majority of Horn Lake's eastern boundary is formed by U.S. Route 51, which travels 9 miles (14 km) south to Hernando, the DeSoto County seat, and 15 miles (24 km) north to downtown Memphis. Exits 287, 289, and 901 provide access to Interstate 55, which runs just east of Horn Lake.

Horn Lake and the surrounding area are regarded as a suburb of Memphis and provide quick access to the city's lodging, restaurants, and tourist attractions. When a little portion of the Mississippi River was cut off naturally, creating a dammed lake region, the lake was created in the middle of the 19th century. The 1,200-acre Ox Bow Lake is located in Shelby County, Tennessee and DeSoto County, Mississippi. It offers boating, canoeing, and kayaking as well as fishing for pumpkinseed sunfish, flathead catfish, and largemouth bass. Although there are no camping facilities on-site, Horn Lake, a nearby community, offers a wide range of entertainment and lodging options, including restaurants and bed and breakfast establishments.
