There are vending machines and restrooms and an area for dog walking. Vermont isn't like New York - there are no signs here prohibiting overnight parking though overnight *camping* is not allowed.

Excellent rest stop in Sharon, VT. Highway signs let us know it's 74 miles to the next restroom,…read moreand as it was lunch time we pulled in for a picnic and walk about. The road in is newly paved and takes you around the back of the building. Big rig parking is by the highway with a pedestrian walkway up to the building. The parking lot is a fair size with no EV charging station (yet) and two handicap spaces. A small pavillion directly across from parking covers three picnic tables. Another 3 are nestled under the trees to the left. Several Adirondack style seats across the lawn overlook the road and view beyond. The grounds are beautifully landscaped. The building is small but contains a lot of tourist information on the walls, brochures to take and a volunteer to help. Hot coffee is available, two drink vending machines and one snack vending machine as well as water fountains. Clean mens/ladies rooms and two family bathrooms are located behind a display wall to the left as you enter the building. An information desk is straight ahead. This facility reclaims it's waste water and the process is open to the public in their Living Machine greenhouse area. It's very tropical with a bounty of lush, warm weather plants. Thankfully, it didn't smell like waste water in there. :) Also on site is a large Veterans Memorial, originally opened in 1982. There are several informational displays around the property regarding VT's military history. The memorial is a lovely, quiet space for reflection. A dog walking area is located on the opposite side of the parking lot with waste bags available for your convenience. Furry family members are not allowed inside the building. A volunteer was monitoring the parking area, keeping it tidy. This is a beautiful rest stop with space for kids to run, picnic areas, seats with a view, a memorial and some waste water science. If all you need is a quick pit stop they got you covered. If you have time to roam, they've got you covered there too.

You can see the Bennington Battle Monument https://www.yelp.com/biz/bennington-battle-monument-bennington?hrid=2mYSueSCcpnX9G-6ZwZAuA from here - you should definitely check it out! The welcome center is only open from 7am to 7pm and when it's closed, there are no restrooms available. Fortunately, I have a potty on board the van. I arrived after closing, took a spot against some of the trees and remained undisturbed overnight. While they have signs that indicate "No camping," that doesn't mean no overnight parking. Just don't "recreate" or set out a tent or a grill, and you should be okay. The welcome center has a free wifi but it doesn't reach far. I tried to sit nearby with the laptop but the mosquitoes were vicious so I headed back to safety. [Review 18457 overall - 57 in Vermont - 1979 of 2022.]
