Review: 2025

Just needed to get off the road and happened upon this rest area at the right time. Rest Area is clean. Bathrooms well maintained. Bonus is the 3 Lots — which means there is enough room for everyone. Cars, Semi-Trucks, and RVs.

Oregon allows up to 12 hours at a rest area which was way more than we needed.
