Don’t follow your GPS to the Visitor Center, because it has moved into downtown.

Don’t follow your GPS to the Visitor Center, because it has moved into downtown. Apparently Apple Annie’s still allows parking, but I wouldn’t want to be in the way when business opened in the morning. There is parking behind, in what apparently was the old Visitor Center, but we opted for the big field next to the Holiday Inn. It was peaceful and private until the big rigs started pulling in around 8pm, and filling the place up. Fortunately, most were courteous, and as quiet as could be, so we had a good night’s sleep. The open field directly in front of the Inn gets fewer big rigs, and is also an option.

Apple Annie’s parking lot. Close to the highway so some noise from the trucks but not bad. Two other people overnight and very safe, next to police station.

We arrived late at night and drove to the location, but it didn’t look like a good place to stay. There was no one around and I was worried about safety. Close by there was a big truck area with dirt lots and we stayed overnight there instead. Maybe if we had arrived while it was still light outside it might have looked different.

Apple Annie’s could easily be a Harvest Host spot but when I mentioned it, I felt I spoke amongst deaf ears, oh well their loss, they do have variety of items to buy and seemed very popular with the locals.
If you decide to get a bite to eat at the roadrunner cafe in the KOA, the food is ok but a little overrated

The visitor center is permanently closed but parking is still available in the lot the center shares with the pie shop. There is a new highway patrol station right across the parking lot from the visitors center. We saw several patrol cars pulling into the station at various times, so we felt very safe, and obviously overnight parking is ok or they would have come over and said something. The pie shop/ cafe is open with modified hours. They close at 5, so we got there right after so we wouldn’t take parking away from employees or patrons. We planned to get pie in the morning but didn’t realize the hours were modified, so the shop was closed. We would definitely stay again and would make sure they’re open so we can buy pie.

Visitor center is closed. Nice level parking lot for an overnight stop. Enough space to put slide out. Store is closed at five so very little traffic. Had the place to ourselves.

Quiet night and the best thing is both the VC and restaurant close at 5pm so you are there by yourself all night.

Right off 10; we were only ones here which was good as there are just a few parking spaces next to visitor center. Nothing posted about overnight parking so was ok for a quick boondocks spot. Not much space for bigger rig so we were lucky no one else.

So I guess after staying in Gillespie Rest Area in Texas, I have come to realize what a true 5 star is...Not to take away from others opinions, but if you look at it for what it is, this is an OK rest stop for free. As I write this review, the road noise is a 6 on a 1-10. I have stayed at louder rest areas but I wouldn't consider this quiet. For some reason gas prices are about .50 higher than Tuscom bout 60 miles further west. In the end I am going through my reviews to re-rate...Gillespie rest area made that much of an impression. The Verizon here was about 4 bars on my jetpack and was able to stream.
