Because of the cloudy drinking water, I had to purchase bottle water which I wasn't happy about. There is plenty of parking though including parking for cars, busses, trucks, and cars with trailers.

Clean restroom and with the car parking area a little further away from the highway, quiet enough for a quick snooze before continuing onwards. My favorite part of the rest area?

On my last trip down, towing a very fully loaded trailer behind my RAM Rebel 1500 pickup, At about 12 midnight, I had a trailer tire blow out just after gettin on I-77 from I-81. I called the I-81 travel plaza for roadside assistance. The mechanic on duty was Don. He arrived at my location a couple hours later as he was out on another service call when I called. He brought a new trailer tire, made sure my damaged rim was good after getting the blown tire off. It took him a while, but he got me back on the road and I arrived at my destination in SC safely. The service was GREAT, Don was ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. If I had to find a negative something to comment on, it would be charging me $125 for a $76 tire, and $293 for the service. It is what it is and they know they have you by the short curly hairs in your nether region, so they really over charge you. Also, they do not take credit cards or checks, so they will follow you to the next exit and wait for you at the ATM. It can really be expected. I'm sure they've been screwed out of payment by so E people so they make sure you're not gonna beat them out of their due, even if it is exorbitant. Lesson learned: don't hit the road without a good spare and the proper tools. Would I recommend them? In a pinch, ABSOLUTELY. Don was awesome and very diligent about all his work. Thank you I-81 travel plaza and THANK YOU Don M.

Often we come across state or county rest stops that are frankly horrible, seem dangerous, underlit, and trashy. I'm embarrassed for the US thinking a foreign traveler might stop at some of these and judge us as a whole by how bad, dirty, and run down some are. On the other hand, there are rest stops like these that are frankly beautiful places that feel more like a relaxing park and an actual place to rest from the stresses of the road. The restroom and lobby were clean, well kept, well stocked, and did not stink. There was a separate building for snacks and drinks away from the restrooms. I see this more in the Southeast than in Western states. I don't know why. Maybe that keeps the sugary distractions away from kids. Or maybe someone thought we needed to earn our treat after a few extra steps. I don't know, but for some reason I like it. Thank you to the staff who keep this place looking great, clean, and feeling safe.
