Small on Town, Big on Charm

We are proud of our community, our schools, churches and local businesses. We believe in the principals that make up our Core Values: God & Country, Family & Friends, Our Children, Our School, The Bill of Rights, The Ten Commandments, Hunting & Fishing, Nature & Wildlife, and Our History.

Our heritage runs deep within the community and surrounding country-side, with families living here for generations. Our neighbors who have moved away for whatever reason, almost always return home.

Goreville is full of great activities for families of all ages and old fashioned southern hospitality. We invite you to come experience our scenic beauty and enjoy the peace and tranquility of our small town.
