Silver Run is an unincorporated community situated approximately 18 miles (29 km) southwest of Wiggins, Mississippi.
The name, Silver Run, was derived from a natural stream that flows through the southwestern portion of Stone County, Mississippi.
Silver Run is located in the far reaches of eastern Pearl River County and western Stone County and has a thriving general store, volunteer fire department and public library.
The concept for Silver Run Lakes began as a camp for children, but without the finances to support it.
To finance construction, land lots were surveyed around the lake and sold as retreats for camping and recreation.
