well, rest stops are more common in Michigan, which is where I'm from than Texas, but I have to say…read morewe had to stop here and I'm glad we did. It's very clean and plenty of parking and a nice place to relax. There's also the local cat down in the bushes so if you have some cat food or something, you can feed him just look for him, I would say his name could be Oscar. I also saw a local raccoon where some of the passer buyers had left food. But it's pretty straightforward here, good place to throw away garbage and to use the bathroom, which was clean. It wasn't too crowded and kind of a nice peaceful oasis away from the busy or noisy traffic.

This rest area was incredibly easy to visit as it was right off the interstate. My mom was…read moresurprised at how much there was to offer at a rest area in comparison to the rest stops of yester-year.

Not a car to be seen, but ours. Walked on the elevated boardwalk to a cute building that looked closed. Completely unattended. Just a whiteboard filled with information. What a nice surprise. The glass doors were unlocked, the bathrooms were clean and there was even a little Texas history display filled with historic facts. A nice little local rest stop. Just make sure to check your stall for toilet paper first.

You can literally find just about anything you need here, from snacks and souvenirs to fresh food and desserts. The moment you walk in, the smell of fresh brisket and barbecue hits you right away. The brisket sandwiches are fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. The bakery section is dangerous in the best way possible, filled with so many delicious goodies and sweet treats that it's hard to choose just one. The hot food section had so many tasty options available that I honestly couldn't decide what to get. Everything looked fresh, hot, and delicious. No matter what you're craving, they probably have it. The store itself was super clean, well organized, and surprisingly efficient considering how busy it gets. The staff kept everything moving smoothly, and the atmosphere was fun and energetic. If you've never been to Buc-ee's, you need to stop at least once. And once you do, you'll probably find yourself wanting to stop every time you see one on the road.

Plus benches to sit and admire the lake. The lake also has turtles and ducks swimming around in it. There are signs prohibiting swimming-- understandable if disappointing. The trails will lead you to several excellent picnic areas each with a table, trash can, and shaded cover if you'd like to stop and eat or snack. The grounds are well-kept, featuring some lovely rose bushes and other shrubs. We particularly appreciated that the rest stop was tucked away in the woods aways from the highway so you could escape some of the road noise. The building is very nice too, with some educational exhibits inside! Like a mini museum on the side of the highway. Bathrooms are both indoor and outdoor. They were clean and stoked. Looks like there may have been a children's playground at one time but has since been removed? Really the only downside I could see about the place!

Room was fine but some appliances were shoddy. Breakfast is typical, not bad but adequate. Staff was just fine. My chief complaint is the lighting. The large sign is currently unlit at night, and as the hotel sits way back off the roadway, it doesn't have the visibility of the neighboring Hampton Inn. There is a lit sign near the driveway, but someone ran into it rendering it useless. So I drove back and forth a couple of times before I spied the building in the dark. Fix it!

All of the staff I interacted with were pleasant & positive every time I conversed with them. The room was very clean and well taken care of. Everything was well maintained, except the below. The bed was comfortable and I slept very well. The negatives kind of grated on me at times. But considering how cheap the place was, it wasn't like I was staying at a Five Star joint, so you have to give the place a bit of slack. First, the AC was definitely "played with". No matter how cold you set it, it would run for 15 minutes and then stop for 15. It would NEVER achieve any temperature for long if it were blow 70 degrees. I'm convinced that it was set to just say F' U to any customer. The door between rooms to adjoin them was secure but it didn't keep out noise for ANYTHING. If you get one of those rooms, hope you don't get a noisy neighbor. The toilet seat was replaced and whoever was the maintenance moron picked up a local version that was plenty of sizes too small and then didn't secure it very well. Using it feels like sliding on a small skateboard across a bowl.
