Something not right?

Description

I needed a place to park for the night and most of the reststops on the way to Dallas were right on the highway. I stumbled upon this one on accident and found it to be secluded from the highway with trees, and completely safe. They have an on duty janitor 24/7 and cameras and security lights. The facilities (restrooms, picnic tables/grill, tiny museum, and vending machines) are open 24/7 as well and there’s a playground for kids. It’s also pet friendly and welcomes all types of overlanders (they have a separate side for cars and a separate side for larger vehicles like trucks and RV’s).

Report Check-In

Great spot. Large parking lot. Clean bathrooms. Friendly staff here.

Note to hat this is an Eastbound location (I didn’t see that) but it’s got an overpass only a mile down the road so it’s easy to get to.

There is a Westbound test stop location that we did pass to get here. I had the GPS programmed to this spot , so we will stay here tonight

Brand new rest stop. Can access westbound from exit 352 and then work back to it by getting on east bound from Blondell. Takes very little time. Not a lot of parking for new rest stop on the car side. Very bright and cars are near freeway, so a bit loud. Wish they would reverse that and put trucks closer to freeway. Texas allows 24 hours in rest stops. Texas Transportation Code 545.411. 3-4 bars 5G AT&T
Edit. So getting back on I20 west is about a 3+ mile loop and it is easy to miss the left on Blondell.

Definitely one of the nicest rest areas with clean bathrooms. Road noise and arrest off is always A thing. Lots of security cameras in and outside as well.

Nice overnighting spot. Super clean restrooms. We slept on the car side away from the 18 wheelers. Recommended...

Nice spot to park overnight. Probably the most clean rest stop we've ever been to! Good Verizon reception.
