A favorite rest area for many years. Its clean, security safe, well kept, in a beautiful setting and strategically located. I stop here with my daughter every time we're passing through.

Great place to stop and stretch your legs, and let the kids burn off some energy. Restrooms were clean and easy to change the boys, even the 10yr old. Got to keep seats dry incase they fall asleep 😴

Great rest area super clean. Do not break any traffic laws in this area though!

Lots of adorable chipmunks around the rest area! The signs say not to feed the wildlife because it makes them dependent on humans. I'm not sure if that's true.

One of the only stops on the way to Reno. Stop here for the bathroom and it has a pet area. Restroom is heated during the winter so its awesome! Great place to stretch, always clean.
