Great place. Clean bathrooms, water fountains. Separate location for Vans/Rvs. No hassles. We slept great.

This worked out great for an overnight stay! Restrooms are 24 hours.
Lots of trucks (but it is only a week before Christmas).
Our first spot had a street light directly above us but we had no trouble finding another one.
The back parking area that others have mentioned was blocked off, maybe for the winter.
And Lions Den Coffee shop is 5 minutes away; fantastic coffee and great breakfast sammies!

Place was full of trucks so I was a bit confused about where the RV parking was. Go through the first truck parking area, round the bend at the end of the area, then it is clearly marked on the right with signs saying no trucks. Plenty of space, massive open parking for RVs, and some cars stayed overnight as well.

We stayed here for 2 nights and it’s a highly recommended place to stay. They have separate spaces for cars, campers, and trucks. The trucks can be a little loud at night but only for a short period of time. Plenty of grass and walking areas for the pups. Also, very clean bathrooms with workers stationed there to assist.

Stayed one night here and was so much better than the Walmart in Wallingford. The rest area is actually a good ways off the interstate and I stayed in the 2nd car parking area. Was pretty quiet and slept great.

Wonderful rest area with a very large area reserved for campers. The rest area is clean, well-lighted, and has well stocked vending machines and clean restrooms. There’s an RV dump that opens April 39 and closes end of October. It’s not that noisy for a rest area since the trucks all have their own area to park in.

I stayed here several days no problems. I park where the “campers/trailers” are supposed to be. There was another RV and other cars. I have stayed here many times!

Separate area for RVs is great. Dump station is immediately on your left. Well done, CT.

(I didn’t stay overnight. Passing through.)

This place is pretty awesome. It has everything the usual the rest stop has, plus a separate parking area for campers. The restrooms are clean. Not having to worry about the knock is priceless! Keep it nice.

Parking pour camping car. Pas d'interdiction pour la nuit. Bâtiment offrant toilettes et distributeurs de boissons et fontaines à eau. Ouvert de 8h 30 à 15h 30. Aire de vidage en suivant les panneaux campers. L'eau est claire et sans odeur. Pour se servir c'est une pompe à main. Après avoir amorcé, laisser le levier en hauteur et l'eau coule toute seule.
