Rest stop

This location is a rest stop off of interstate 20–59. There’s a rest stop on both sides of the interstate. While the bathrooms are dated, they are very clean. They are vending machines available, picnic tables, and places to walk your dog. There is lots of parking here and it would be a good location for overnight parking if needed. There’s a back lot for 18 wheelers to park in. As I exited, I noticed that there was a dump station, but I don’t know if it is still in working order. There is no camping at this site which is why I gave it four stars.
