    I-77 Rocky Gap Rest Area, Bastian
    Bruce K.

    A morning of driving and such, it was time to take a break and this rest area fit the bill perfectly. Easy to access and find a parking space in a bit of shade for a quick nap. After that, a visit to the (clean) restrooms and we walked around a little bit before continuing on towards West Virginia. [Review 532 of 2025 - 1472 in Virginia - 24093 overall]

    The Rest stops are beautiful and maintained well. I wish the rest stops in the rest of the country, were just the same. The women's restroom was clean and orderly.

    Good little stop. Nice open area. Quite a few Covered picnic tables & clean bathrooms.

    Really nice rest area with great family restrooms (with toddler size toilets), lots of walking space and areas for pups. Plus plenty of vending and picnic tables.

    One of the nicest rest areas ever. So clean and big. The building sits far enough away from the parking lot, plenty of room for picnics and walls to get stretch on the road. There is plenty of parking available. This is one of those places where you feel safe to pull over and rest for a little while. The parking areas are well lit, with not only light on the parking areas but the paths to the building as well. The picnic areas are covered under shelters so you can avoid the sun/light rain as necessary. It has the normal vending machines that seem to be well stocked and taken care of. Enjoy a nice break on I-77.

    This is worth the trip

    Huge expanse on the way north with ample room for cars and trucks and acres of land for pets and children to run (please clean up after your charges.) Parking is generous with an abundance of accessible spots around the second sidewalk - the one without stairs. The structures are solid and well kept. Picnic tables fill the landscape so you can stretch your legs before supping. The actual facilities are pretty slick and updated; self watering everything and hot air drying when you need it (but you still have to do your own paperwork.)

    We stopped at this rest area on the way to Cleveland, Ohio. It was clean and a nice place to take a break. Inside was a lobby type area with seating and brochures to take with you. The lobby and bathrooms were well lit. The parking lot could have used more lights, but it was one of the nicest rest areas we stopped at.

    It was good !

    The plaza shop and restrooms are always perfect. My wife and I bought a house in SC and are in the…read moreprocess of moving from NY to SC. 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.

    They will rob you blind.

I've been in this business a long time and they tried to tell me I had a special tire. mind you I've been buying these 245/70/17.5 for low deck trailers for years. never paid $850 per tire. Stay away from these crooks. I was also told they gotta pay for all them expensive toys they keep buying. Crooks.
