A couple vending machines are out under a covered shelter. I saw one pavilion with picnic tables if you brought lunch. The special feature at the rest stop was a nice story walk for the kids.

I never thought I would be this excited about a rest area…read more The Fayette County Rest Area on I-71 northbound has been rebuilt in recent years, and the entire front landscape is dedicated to Ohio native plants. It's almost like walking through a small arboretum. Educational displays identify native trees, flowers, grasses, and shrubs, making it far more interesting than your typical interstate stop. Inside, the theme continues. The walls are filled with displays highlighting communities, attractions, parks, and destinations around Central Ohio and across the state. As you're heading north toward Columbus, it's almost like Ohio is introducing itself before you arrive. Most rest areas are places to make a quick stop and get back on the road. This one is worth taking a few extra minutes to explore. Nicely done, Ohio.
