    vendoland

    Patsy Cline / Chet Akins rest area, by any other name you'd be just another wayside on the interstate highway system... but someone has seen fit to dub you and your eastbound counterpart (Loretta Lynn / Hank Williams) with the funliest of names!! clean lines, clean grounds, clean buildings; what's not to like? except that vendoland is a separate structure? but that's the custom of late. not sure why, maybe to keep crowding to a minimum? oh, and the picnic shelters look a little bit spooky late at night but still not as bad as that one in Chambers County Texas so just stay close to the brightly lit parking lot and keep on the watch.

    This is a great rest area to stop at. It is clean & very well maintained. I'm sure this is because of the kind man that I met here tonight around 7pm. I asked his name bc I was so impressed w how clean it was & I definitely wanted to recognize him for being awesome!

    Just an average small rest stop. A quick place to take care of business and stretch some legs.

    This is officially the Madison County I-40 West Rest area & has a Yelp page accordingly but I saw…read morethis one & liked it a lot better! It is on the official "Music Highway" which is the stretch of highway between Memphis AND is on the Rufus Thomas Walking the Dog Trail, gotta love it!! This I-40 West Rest Area is located just outside Jackson, TN. This rest area has alot to offer while traveling. It offers: restrooms, parking, picnic tables, telephones, and pet exercise areas. It's clean, neatly landscaped and has easy access with clear markings with lots of parking for cars and trucks alike Bottom line: Having been a life long music but, a radio guy and a 20+ year Me Memphis resident this i-40 rest area gets my vote for coolest named stop in the world because it's THE Isaac Hayes, Tina Turner, Booker T. and the Mg's Rest Stop! Yes way cooler!!

    I have been so impressed with the rest stops during my road trip. When I began the road trip I…read morethought the rest stop areas were going to be awful and they have been just the opposite. This is another beautiful rest stop dedicated to Isaac Hayes, Tina Turner, and The MG's which is now on Yelp. Clean restrooms, maps, pictures and covered and uncovered picnic areas. The landscaping is well maintained, no pets allowed in the picnic area, vending and snack machines. Next, time you are traveling the I-40W Jackson, TN stop off at the mile marker 73 and rest. Welcome to Yelp.
