Located in Madison County, this picture perfect postcard town is booming. Situated next to the
Forked Deer River, Jackson is the home to the annual Casey Jones Train Festival, Rockabilly
Festival, Shannon Street Blues Festival, the Miss TN Beauty Pageant, and the West TN State
Fair. Area attractions include the Casey Jones Train Station, Rockabilly Hall of Fame Museum,
Old Medina Winery, and the Downtown Train Depot. Just outside of Jackson we have the Safari
Zoo, Birdsong Pearl Farm and Museum, Pinson Mounds, and the Bird Dog Museum. This southwestern
Tennessee town is named after Andrew Jackson, who trekked down the western side of what is now
Natchez State Resort Park with his troops in 1814.
