We stopped here for a place to walk around and stretch our legs. We got detoured here due to a major highway being closed. Did not use the facilities. There were a handful of other people parked here - just seemed like a typical rest area. read more

No bathrooms. What's the point? Minimal at best. Waste of money if u ask me. The place doesn't look well maintained.

This is a place to stop and catch a few zzzzzzs, but that's about it. :) There are no restrooms, there's only a picnic bench or two and a little shelter. The place could be better maintained; otherwise, it's adequate for catching up in some sleep, but that's about it. read more

This is a picnic area (no facilities - but I'm sure there's ways around that ;) if you REALLy have to...) that you can park and eat your take-out or whatever or just sit and rest your legs for a moment. Three separate picnic areas and I assume two picnic tables per area based on the one I hung out in. I went to the one north of the I8 just west of where the 84 meets I8 if you're going west to Gila Bend and points beyond. There is a sister/mirror location just west of this on the south side of the I8 just the way they do with every rest stop on the I8. It's pretty relaxing - you're far enough in from the highway that you can chill, meditate or have a meal in peace while you rest. Probably much less an inviting option during the hot summer months even though there is shade. Still I always appreciate any type of rest stop after a long drive. read more

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport - Terminal 3

Our departure from Terminal 3 at Sky Harbor was refreshingly smooth from start to finish. At the…read moreDelta self-serve kiosk, a kind and patient staff member helped us navigate the process with ease. Even when one of our bag tags didn't print correctly, a gentleman quickly stepped in to assist with reprinting friendly, efficient, and exactly what you'd hope for during travel. Security was a breeze, with TSA agents who genuinely made the experience feel welcoming. One agent went out of their way to talk with my daughter, who is learning the ropes of travel and getting familiar with passport procedures. That small interaction meant a lot it turned what can feel like a tense moment into something empowering and positive for her. Overall, Sky Harbor's Terminal 3 gave us a departure experience that was thoughtful, helpful, and human. Delta's team and TSA created a travel moment worth praising.

Wow, the parking situation was difficult today. We parked about a mile away from the Sky Train…read more The shuttle does not run anymore so that's no longer an option. Be prepared to walk. The lines for check in and security went quickly. TSA were efficient and friendly. Plenty of businesses and restaurants to keep one occupied. Parking on site or off site as well.

Picnic area is fenced off. There's trash everywhere. No place for dog to use it. Don't stop.
