Restaurant inspections: 3 spots closed due to cockroach, rodent infestations; no hot water

Three Coachella Valley restaurants were closed by Riverside County health inspectors due to cockroach or rodent infestations or lack of hot water, while another three were downgraded for a number of violations, according to inspection reports.

Desert Hot Springs Spa Hotel and Sam's Family Spa & RV Resort in Desert Hot Springs were closed after inspectors found evidence of cockroach and rodent, respectively, infestations in both facilities. Tiffany's Sweet Spot in La Quinta was also shut down because the facility did not have hot water that reached 120 degrees. All three facilities will be revisited by health inspectors and will be reopened if they fix the major violations that led to their closures.

Additionally, Aldo's Mexican Food in Coachella and Palm Valley Country Club and Swiss Donut in Palm Desert scored "B" grades during their recent inspections due to a number of violations, including the observance of rodent droppings, improper hot and cold food holding temperatures, improper food separation and more. These three locations will also be reinspected.

This article does not include the usual roundup of all restaurants that received "A" grades when they were visited by inspectors this week. The Riverside County Department of Environmental Health is in the process of  transferring previous restaurant inspection reports from its old database to a new one . As a result, new reports have not been uploaded to the website since June 11.

Instead, the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health is sending weekly inspection reports to The Desert Sun until the restaurant grading site is working properly. These reports will pertain only to restaurants that were downgraded or closed by health inspectors.

Under the department's standards, major violations pose an imminent risk to public health and warrant the immediate closure of a food facility or immediate correction, while minor violations do not pose an imminent public health risk, but do warrant correction.

The department hasn't given an estimate for when its website will be functioning again.

Just 30 Minutes From Oxford, Water Valley Is The Perfect Mississippi Day Trip Destination

Water Valley, a charming small town in Mississippi, is an ideal day trip destination with its historic downtown and community events.

Written by  

There are many charming small towns in Mississippi , and Water Valley is one of them. One of our best kept secrets is often overlooked, and that’s likely because it’s just a short drive from Oxford. However, this is one secret you’ll want to be in on – and that’s because Water Valley is the perfect Mississippi day trip destination. So, if you’re taking day trips from Oxford, MS, you’ll want to add Water Valley to your itinerary.

Water Valley is in the hills of northwest Mississippi, about 20 miles south of Oxford.

A small town of some 3,700 residents, it’s one of the most unique places in Mississippi and a great choice for a day trip.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Water Valley was the hub of the Illinois Central Railroad – something visitors today can learn about at the Casey Jones Railroad Museum.

Eventually, the railroad left and Water Valley’s prosperity went with it. In the early 2000s, it seemed like Water Valley was on the brink of collapse; however, it underwent a renaissance of sorts.

The town’s “progressive, diversified population” is credited with kick-starting its comeback.

Whatever the reason, there’s no denying that the Water Valley of today is absolutely charming, particularly its downtown, which is filled with buildings from yesteryear.

The perfect mix of old and new, the historic buildings house gift shops, boutiques, specialty stores, and restaurants.

Among the storefronts in downtown Water Valley is Turnage Drug Store.

Like taking a step back in time, Turnage Drug Store is an old-fashioned pharmacy – complete with a soda fountain and gift shop.

Despite its growth, Water Valley has retained its hometown vibes, thanks, in part, to community-wide events, like the Watermelon Carnival.

Always held the first weekend of August, it’s been named one of the top 20 fests in the Southeastern U.S., attracting tens of thousands of people each year!

A small town that’s anything but typical, Water Valley offers one of the most unique getaways in Mississippi. Do you agree? Is Water Valley the perfect day trip destination? Know of any other unique places to visit in Mississippi ? Tell us!

Water Valley isn’t the only small town that makes for a great getaway. There are so many others, including these charming small towns in Mississippi , a few of which are also great for day trips from Oxford, MS.

Your Ultimate Guide To Summer Fun In Mississippi

Ready or not, summer is here! We’ve compiled a comprehensive list of some of our favorite things to do in Mississippi in summer, covering everything from epic sunset sails to activities that won’t cost you a dime. Of course, summer in Mississippi can be a little hot, so we’ve included plenty of ways to beat the heat on those hot summer days.

Best Summer Vacation Destinations In Mississippi

Are you ready to pack your bags and enjoy a summer vacation? Here are our top picks for summer vacation destinations in Mississippi:

Popularity: Popular

Need To Know: There will be fewer crowds since Ole Miss students typically head home for the summer.

Oxford has a college-town reputation, but it won’t feel like it in the summer. The town settles into much quieter vibes when the college kids head home for the summer. With its rich history and exceptional restaurants, you’ll never be bored. Spend some time exploring Oxford’s historic Downtown Square. Be sure to swing by Square Books and then grab a bite to eat at AJax Diner while you’re there. Afterward, head over to Rowan Oak —William Faulkner’s home. The residence has been carefully preserved and you can tour the home.

2. Gulfport

Popularity: Very popular

Need To Know: Gulfport is the second-largest city in Mississippi

Thanks to its beautiful beaches, Gulfport is a fabulous summer destination. Families with kids of all ages will love visiting the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies. Not only will you learn all about marine life, but you can even swim with dolphins! Other Gulfport attractions include the Gulf Islands Waterpark, Fishbone Alley, and many others.

Need To Know: Parking for the public beaches can fill up quickly!

Gulfport and Biloxi are less than 15 miles away from each other, and it’s a very scenic drive! Biloxi’s casinos are popular year-round and they are a great option when you need to escape the heat for a while. You can’t miss the Biloxi Lighthouse (Literally. It’s in the middle of the road). The views from the top are extraordinary!

Best Beaches, Lakes & Rivers To Visit In Mississippi This Summer

Summer was meant for splashing around. Grab your swimsuits and sunscreen and head over to one of these spots. Whether you want to pull up a patch of sand or float carelessly down a river, these are some of the best beaches, lakes, and rivers to visit in Mississippi this summer:

4. Ship Island

Location: Barrier Island on the Gulf Coast

Need To Know: There is very little shade on Ship Island. Bring hats, umbrellas, etc.

If Caribbean blue water and white sandy beaches are what you seek, make your way to Ship Island. Ship Island Excursions offers a ferry service that takes about an hour. Keep your eyes peeled for dolphins along the way! Once you arrive on the island, you’ll be met with a tropical paradise. There are beach chairs and umbrellas you can rent, but you can also bring your own, too. History lovers will also enjoy getting the opportunity to explore Fort Massachusetts. It’s not in use anymore, but it was used during the Civil War as a base for Union troops and a prison for Confederate soldiers.

5. Ross R Barnett Reservoir

Location: Madison and Rankin counties

Need To Know: The 33,000-acre lake is the largest drinking water resource in Mississippi

Often called “the Rez” by locals, you can’t go wrong with a summer day here. There are several public parks dotted along the water, so if you find one too crowded, you can just find another! Pelahatchie Shore Park is a good first pick. The park overlooks Pelahatchie Bay and offers a disc golf course, a boat launch, and plenty of spots to pull up a beach chair and relax. You can also take a scenic drive along the Reservoir which coincidentally takes you along the historic Natchez Trace.

Once you’ve worked up an appetite, head over to Cock of the Walk for some of the best catfish in Mississippi!

6. Sardis Lake

Location: Lafayette, Panola, and Marshall counties

Need To Know: Perfect for families

If you can’t make it down to the Gulf Coast, Sardis Lake is a great option. This 98,520-acre reservoir is not far from Oxford and can easily be done as a day trip from Oxford, Tupelo, or even Memphis. As one of the clearest lakes in Mississippi, it’s a popular swimming area. Sardis Lake is also perfect for fishing, too. There are plenty of day-use areas, several boat launches, beaches, playgrounds, and more.

Parks To Visit In Mississippi This Summer

There are 24 state parks in Mississippi , and each one of them is worthy of a visit. If you had to narrow it down to just a few, we’ve got you covered. If you plan on hiking around these parks, we'd recommend picking up some trail maps ahead of time. Here are some of the best parks in Mississippi to visit this summer:

7. Buccaneer State Park

Location: Waveland, Mississippi

Popularity: Very popular in the summer

Need To Know: Entrance to the state park is $4. Entrance to Buccaneer Bay is $19 for individuals 48” + and $13 for under 48”

Splash the day away at Buccaneer State Park. The park is home to Buccaneer Bay, a 4.5-acre waterpark that overlooks the Gulf with waterslides and wave pools galore. Nature lovers will also enjoy the park’s nature trail, or challenging the family to a game of disc golf.

8. Roosevelt State Park

Location: Morton, Mississippi

Popularity: Fairly popular

Need To Know: Come back in the fall to see the leaves changing color.

Conveniently located between Meridian and Jackson, Roosevelt State Park is a great park to visit in the summer. Explore the hiking trails, enjoy the 150-acre lake, or have some fun on the water slide! There are plenty of activities to keep you entertained all day long.

9. Tombigbee Lake State Park

Location: Tupelo, Mississippi

Need To Know: Cabin rentals book quickly, so make reservations as early as you can if you want to spend a few days here.

Sitting pretty in Tupelo, Tombigbee Lake State Park is a favorite hangout for locals during the summer months. Fishing the lake is one of the most popular things to do. On land, visitors can enjoy epic mountain biking trails, scenic hiking trails, a legendary disc golf course, and more.

Best Free Summer Activities

I’m a firm believer that a good time doesn’t have to cost a fortune. You can have a fabulous day with a little planning and only pay for the gas. These summer activities won’t cost you a dime:

10. Natchez Trace Parkway

Location: Mississippi/Tennessee/Alabama

Popularity: Some sections are more popular than others

Need To Know: You don’t have to tackle the entire 444 miles. Start wherever you’d like and drive until you see something you’re interested in!

Summer is the perfect season for road trips, and the Natchez Trace Parkway is one of the most epic road trips in Mississippi you can take. Beginning in Natchez and ending in Nashville, the Natchez Trace Park clocks in at 444 miles but you don’t need to drive the entire route. There are plenty of historic landmarks, hiking trails, and scenic views along the route. You can make the drive as long or as short as you’d like!

11. Red Bluff

Location: Marion County, just outside of Morgantown

Popularity: Not very popular

Need To Know: Wear good sneakers and have a towel/water back in the car. Your shoes will get muddy!

If you want to experience one of the most unique landscapes in Mississippi, pay a visit to Red Bluff. Red Bluff looks like a mini Grand Canyon! These “canyons” are the result of erosion, and the erosion actually took out part of a road nearby. Don’t worry, you won’t be driving along that part. Grab a trail map before you go, and be sure you’re wearing some sneakers you won’t mind getting dirty. That red clay can (and will) stick to everything!

12. Public Beaches

Location: All along the Mississippi Gulf Coast

Popularity: Very Popular

Need To Know: Parking can fill up quickly!

Mississippi has countless public beaches peppered along the coast. We mentioned Ship Island earlier, but these beaches don’t require a boat to get to. Most of Mississippi’s public beaches have free parking, so the only thing you’ll pay for is the gas.

Best Summer Events And Festivals In Mississippi

Grab your favorite festival shirt and head out to one of the summer festivals in Mississippi this year:

13. Ridgeland Celebrate America Balloon Glow

Location: Ridgeland, Mississippi

Need To Know: Festival date: June 28, 2024

The Ridgeland Baloon Glow is one of the best ways to celebrate the Fourth of July weekend. Enjoy plenty of food vendors, a kid’s corner, and live music while watching all of the colorful hot air balloons in the sky. There’s also an incredible fireworks display in the evenings. The festival takes place at the Northpark Mall.

14. Crystal Springs Tomato Festival

Location: Crystal Springs, Mississippi

Need To Know: Festival date: June 29, 2024

Head over to Crystal Springs at the end of June to experience the Tomato Festival. The one-day festival takes place on June 29, 2024, from 9 a.m. until 8 p.m. and features a 5K run, arts and crafts, and plenty of food vendors. Don’t forget to swing by the Farmers’ Market in Railroad Park to pick up fresh produce and tomatoes!

15. Slugburger Festival

Location: Corinth, Mississippi

Need To Know: The festival takes place July 11-13, 2024

The Slugburger is one of Mississippi’s most iconic culinary creations. As the story goes, a Corinth resident by the name of John Weeks started making these special burgers in 1917. To stretch the ground beef and drive costs down, he mixed potato flakes into the ground beef. Today these burgers are usually mixed with soybean grit, and they’re just as popular as they were over a century ago. Every year, the town of Corinth hosts the Slugburger Festival that’s filled with music, a talent show, carnival rides, and plenty of slugburgers to go around.

The Breathtaking Scenic Drive Through Mississippi That Runs Along The Gulf Coast

When most people drive through southern Mississippi, they take I-10, but there’s a coastal route that’s simply breathtaking. This scenic drive in Mississippi hugs the Gulf Coast for the entire journey, with plenty of opportunities to stop off and take a beach stroll along the way.

Grab your road trip essentials and get those playlists ready!

The drive along US-90 from Bay St. Louis to Ocean Springs is full of picturesque views and it’s only 33 miles.

With no traffic (hah!) it would take you less than an hour, but of course you’ll want to stop off along the way and stretch your legs and take in the views. This road trip will give you an idea of what to expect, plus some of our favorite stops.

Beginning from Bay St. Louis, our first landmark is the iconic Bay St. Louis Bridge.

There is a pedestrian walkway if you’d like to take a bridge stroll and snap some photos.

Once you make your way across the bridge, you’ll pass through Henderson Point on your way to Pass Christian.

There are plenty of things to do in Pass Christian, and waterfront dining is just the beginning.

Shaggy’s Pass Harbor is a great waterfront restaurant in Pass Christian, and we’d recommend it!

There are actually a few Shaggy’s Restaurants on this drive, so if you’re not hungry yet just wait until you get to the Gulfport or Biloxi Beach locations.

Long Beach is the next big town you’ll drive through.

Take a stroll down Long Beach Harbor! Get that salty air in your hair and enjoy the sand between your toes. It’s easy to see why this charming coastal town was voted one of the best places to live in Mississippi.

Next stop: Gulfport.

You could easily spend the entire day exploring Gulfport. If we had to choose just one attraction, we’d pick Ship Island Excursions. Here, you can take a boat out to Ship Island where you can lounge around on one of Mississippi’s best beaches. They also offer dolphin tours, too!

Onward we go! The Biloxi Lighthouse is one of the most iconic sights in Biloxi, and it's worth pulling over for.

The Biloxi lighthouse was operated by civilians from 1848 until 1939. Fun fact: out of the 91 years that the lighthouse was civilian-operated, 75 of those years were women-run. That’s more female keepers than any other lighthouse in American history! You can go inside the lighthouse and grab some terrific tree-top views from the top.

Once you reach the Biloxi Bay Bridge, you're in the home stretch.

We've saved one of the best attractions until the very end.

Once you reach Ocean Springs on the other side of the bridge, head over to Ocean Springs Beach.

It’s a beautiful beach to watch the sunset from, and you’ve got a glorious view of the bridge, too.

Ready for more? Check out some of our favorite beaches in Mississippi and add them to the trip!

Voyagers Orange Beach

Published: Sep 6, 2024 · This post may contain affiliate links

Voyagers Orange Beach is the perfect fine dining date night restaurant with gorgeous views of the Gulf of Mexico. They serve award-winning Gulf seafood and dry-aged prime steaks along with an award-winning wine list.

Voyagers offers a combination of spectacular views of the Gulf of Mexico with fresh Coastal Cuisine served in an intimate setting perfect for date nights and celebratory dinners.

Diners can enjoy authentic Gulf seafood and dry-aged USDA Prime steaks paired with the perfect wine.

This is an Orange Beach dining experience you will leave already thinking about when you can go again.

It is hard to describe the level of service you will receive at Voyageurs. Our server, Christina, was absolutely amazing.

She had us laughing, offered impeccable suggestions on making our meal even more impressive, and created an experience we can't wait to have again.

Christina handled my vegetarian requests without blinking an eye. She offered the perfect suggestions that enabled me to have a truly amazing meal without meat.

My husband knew he wanted an epic steak. Christina guided him through the options for taking the steak to the next level.

She was able to take what we love and turn it into a dining experience that was next level.

Every single bite of food was impeccable. The flavors the culinary team is able to create are the best we have found on the island.

The purple sweet potato gnocchi is a must-try! Its subtle flavor, with hints of garlic and spice, blends with parmesan cheese to create a side dish that became my entire meal.

Fair warning: the salt-crusted baked potato will ruin all future baked potatoes. My husband made an audible noise of delight when he tried the Bayside Bleu Mac with Bill "E' Bacon and roasted tomatoes.

When my husband tried the Gulf Shrimp crown on his dry-aged porterhouse, he closed his eyes in bliss. His reaction was next level when he tried the porterhouse he said it was one of the best steaks he has had anywhere in the world.

The menu highlights ingredients from local farms and suppliers, including Admiral Shellfish, Sweet Grass Dairy, Local Lettuce Heads, Bill "E" Bacon , Bayou Cora, Two Brooks Farm, and more.

Chef Brody Olive was born in Birmingham, Alabama, and raised in Newnan, Georgia. He studied at Johnson and Wales University in Charleston, South Carolina, before professional training with Chef George Reis at Ocean Restaurant in Birmingham.

The tranquil ambiance of Voyagers paired with the award-winning food creates a one of a kind dining experience in Orange Beach.
