Clean rest area with a dog run.. vending machines.. picnic areas and truck parking. There's about 20 truck parking spots here give or take but the problem is that there's not enough room between the rows to pull in the space when it starts to fill up.. so it gets pretty difficult to pull in the spaces the more trucks there are.. other than that it's not a bad rest area..

Very nice rest area right off the highway. Good place to walk around only drink vending machines available. Only 4 stars since the family restroom wasn’t that clean. Gas station nearby as well.

Very clean looks brand new - plenty of of stalls and sinks - heated - one of best rest areas I’ve traveled too

Nice newer looking Rest Area with clean bathrooms but the grass is posted "no dogs" and the area marked dog run is full of small prickly thistle balls that I had to pick out of my dogs paws!!! I even had 20 of them in the bottom of my tennis shoes that even after I picked them off, left little spikes in the sole of my shoes!

DON'T STOP HERE WITH DOGS!!!

It's a good spot with reliable rest rooms

There's a sign indicating RULES OF THE REST AREA

*NO OVERNIGHT CAMPING

What's the point of the rest area then? I arrive at 6pm and sleep until daybreak with 24/7 facilities

HENCE THE REASON FOR THUS REST AREA

Safe

Secure

Keep travelers alert and refreshed

I'M NOT LOITERING; I'm RESTING and PLOTTING for "future endeavors"

It's a good rest area!

I stayed there for 3 days, nobody bothered me even though the sign here says “no camping” (”Google” CDOT rules, cause basically, you can stay overnight in any rest area in Colorado). Very nice and clean inside/outside, also you can find the outlet inside in the lobby (on the wall by the lady's room). 2 little rabbits live here. Gass station and liquor shop next to the rest area. The only issue here is the smell outside, but it is almost not noticeable.

Cons: Like other areas of the "high plains" it usually smells. Amarillo, west Kansas, and parts of Nebraska, South Dakota. This is not the rest area that smells. That's just how the land smells with so many cattle living around.

Another downside is that the train rolls through every 3-4 hours. If you're not a heavy sleeper or very tired, you're likely to have bad sleep with those trains.

Watch out for snakes!

Pros: There's usually always a place to park no matter what. If the rest area fills up (which I've never seen happen), there's a truck stop next door. On top of that, things are lax around here where you could make a couple parks on side streets and it would not be a big deal.

The restrooms are always clean and stocked.

Next door has a barebones restaurant, it's nothing special but it will fill you up and you won't have to eat chips and cold sandwiches.

If it weren't for the train I'd give it 5 stars

I've been here a few times but today I was creeped out. While in the men's stall a man kept trying to open my door and slide his foot under the door several times. When I left he stared at me the whole time. I went to my car to rest and saw the guy go into the bathroom every time someone new went to the bathroom. He did this several times. Too young girls went into the bathroom while thier parent stayed in the car and I immediately started walking to thier parent to warn them but the guy came out and went back to his truck. When he saw me he got out of his truck and went back into the bathroom. He finally left but as I was writing this review he came back and past close to my car 2 times. and left again. Anyone who reads this please be safe and don't let your children go in unattended. He's now stalking me. He has a white truck and he's a heavy set man with a beard. He looks like a serial killer.
