Stayed one night. Will only do it again if we bring war plugs. It is what you can expect. You’ll hear the highway and truckers pulling in/out. This was a first staying at a rest stop and we learned somethings like put some ear plugs in the camper just in case.

It was a nice stop as the bathrooms are clean. There’s a couple lights so you feel save walking to use the rest room at night.

We camped here for one night. Bathrooms are clean and it has a nice setup in comparison to most rest stops. Smaller rest stop but no biggy. You’ll hear trucks idling and cars on the highway as you’re right there. All what you’d expect at a rest stop.

Nicest thing for us was the bathroom as our camper was winterized because it was below freezing and it was our last night. Thus the bathroom right there made it easy.
