Stone County, Mississippi

Stone Location Map Mississippi

On the southern edge of Mississippi, you’ll find Stone County. It’s a place where pine forests stretch in the De Soto National Forest. The county seat is a small town named Wiggins.

People here know their neighbors so they often wave from their porches. Stone County’s not huge with just over 19,000 folks calling it home. But what it lacks in size, it makes up for in character.

The Red Creek winds through the county with prime spots for fishing and kayaking. Local farms are across the landscape, growing everything from blueberries to Christmas trees.
