I parked less than 1/2 a mile from the rest area. The road isn't too bad, I went slow to take it easy on the trailer. Yes, there is some road noise.

I parked less than 1/2 a mile from the rest area. The road isn't too bad, I went slow to take it easy on the trailer. Yes, there is some road noise. I could have gone further but not far enough to get total away from the road noise. It's not a busy highway. There are no designated sites and it is all fairly level so just pick a spot. I would avoid if there is rain or snow in the forecast but 4WD would probably be ok if you want to chance it. I'm not sure if my pone was on ATT or VZ but 2 bars LTE, usable.

About half of the reviews here cover the BLM land dispersed camping and the other half cover the rest stop. There's separate campendium pages for both.

I’ve stayed here before. It’s a great stopover, but be careful out on the BLM land because you can get stuck in the sand fairly easily. This time I want to just stay in the rest area parking lot. Not too noisy since after 10 o’clock there’s not much traffic on the road.

This is an "oasis" of beauty in an otherwise boring drive. Lots of room on the pavement, especially if you get there early and can pull up parallel to the fence.

This is an "oasis" of beauty in an otherwise boring drive. Lots of room on the pavement, especially if you get there early and can pull up parallel to the fence. If you want to do boondocking, you can cross the cattle-guard but check the road conditions before you go - there can be some bad spots. It snowed overnight around Memorial Day which was surprising but beautiful. See photos.

Only two big rigs. Side of highway. We backed our camper on. Beautiful view of meadows and mountains. Abuts to BLM land. Going for a walk after dinner. We parked about 15 ft from out toilet to leave room for big rigs.

Previous reviews have been mostly Nov-Apr off-season. As we are here in July, I can report that the dirt road beyond the cattle gate is rutted, but firm. There are plenty of suitably level places to pull off and set up camp. Just look for tire tracks in the well grazed grassland. We used 4WD on our truck camper, but it wasn’t really necessary. We are here all alone tonight except for a herd of cattle 1/4 mile away, and an abundance of grasshoppers. Road noise is minimal. This is a really nice option for a self-contained overnight stay when you’re headed this way. You can walk near the dirt road in sandals, but if you get much away from it you’ll probably want boots. AT&T coverage is a solid four bars, but it’s 3G, which is not one of the options in the menu.

We spent a night here in mid November 2021 and were somewhat apprehensive when we saw the ruts and water in the road after the cattle guard. But we motored ahead ( in 4 wheel low) with no problems and found a reasonably level area upt the road about 1/2 mile. I would be more nervous in wet weather if it ever occurs there.

Traveling solo with a minnie winnie, i was little hesitant about getting theough and over the cattle gate but scouted it out and ther are a few big flat spots just 20-30 feet afterwards. Dirt road was definitely beat up but just pulled off quickly upon entering to the first level clearing. Rest stop filled up with lits of truckers and generators running while i was alone in the field. Also saw some tow campers parked off the tarmac but still inside the rest area. Great spot if you need a break, mountain range views are spectacular with moonrise and sunrise happening. If you have a 4x4 or lifted sprinter, definitely head in further, very private and secluded closer to the mountains you go

Had one other camper in the area that stayed for a night, but that’s the only company we got. It’s exposed, so we were hit by snow and wind, but the view of the mountains were spectacular. Will have to come back to hike here when there’s not a blizzard. Absolutely no problem with Verizon/ATT, strong signal with both!
