Area 19 is one of the most enduring mysteries and sources of speculation in American history. Located inside the confines of Bibb County the hilly, red dirt, grassy knoll known as Rest Area 19 has been the home to some of the nation's most advanced toilets and hand washing technologies along our interstate system I'm sure the father of this massive highway project President Dwight D. Eisenhower couldn't have imagined the hair-raising takes of tales of late night brinksmanship, and possibly much worse so let's take a deeper look. In the course of the reviews preceding this one, it seems dozens of men and women haven't talked publicly about their experiences here. There are a few such as myself who have visited Area 19 that are only now talking to one another and the public about their time here. One source who suggested a deeply dark side of research may be required prior to dropping your pants here because of the common disappearance of toiletries here at Area 19. What do you think? Do you believe it's possible the U.S. government is engaged in secret operations here at Area 19 and other roadside rest areas to save money and reduce the impact on the environment by discouraging the use of the facilities by creating a shortage of toilet paper forcing those who really need to go to bring their own...

Dog restrooms are opposite the human restrooms towards the hwy.

900 th review! Oddly a rest area worthy of a review! Not too many places are as nice as Area 51 this is Area 19 and it was very clean and well lit. I felt safe and was able to stretch out and walk the dog. At this time every dog owner picked up and the trash cans were taken care of. Parking was easy in and out. Only one semi truck was on the wrong side. He idled his truck for the refrigeration. But it wasn't too loud. Snacks and drinks were available prices were very reasonable, credit cards accepted. 9/2019 Food 5 Amb 5 Service 4 Value 5 Location 5

At first, it didn't look like a rest area, it looked homey. The landscaping needed work, but other than that, it was beautiful and warm. People who stopped engaged in conversation. The bathrooms were clean and smelled nice. The vending machines had icy cold Coke Zero one machine had ice cream and the team could not wait to find money to indulge! There were snacks foods also. Sometimes rest areas look creepy and could host a scary movie scene, but this one was homey and looked safe

See all

We have consistently stopped here for a picnic on our regular sojourns to the Mouse House in…read moreOrlando. Today we chose a table in a different spot since it was the first one we saw available. Adjacent to that table was a handicap ramp for you to reach the restroom area. Due to settling (I assume) there was a significant inference in height of the end of the ramp and the sidewalk it was connected to. Resulting in my Mother-in-law tripping on the unexpected lip of the sidewalk causing her to fall and nearly hit her head on the nearby concrete bench of the picnic table. While the ramp is much newer than the rest of the sidewalk and concrete picnic tables, it is old enough that there is no excuse that this DANGEROUS HAZARD is not marked to prevent similar and potentially more serious accidents! It was also disappointing that the vending machines were mostly empty of drinks other than sodas and water. On our next trip I might consider bypassing this location and stopping at the next one instead.

It's 12/4/22 and we're back for the ample parking and clean bathrooms. We didn't need to use…read moreanything else. There are vending machines and places to walk pets and eat at picnic tables. If you have a big rig, there's ample parking for you! But this was a plain and simple pit stop. I'm always amazed at the cleanliness of these rest stops - 95% of the time they are clean. They have toilet paper, soap, and paper towels and/or hot air hand dryers. I've rarely seen the attendants who maintain these areas, but I am grateful for them!
