The Pearl River winds through the heart of this landscape, forming the boundary between Marion and Walthall Counties as it flows toward the Louisiana state line. This river system dominates the local geography, creating oxbows and swampy depressions such as Black Lake, Yellow Lake, and Spains Lake. The settlement of Sandy Hook serves as a local hub near the southern border, while smaller communities like Saxon, Spring Cottage, and Twin anchor the surrounding rural areas.
