Surry County Rest Area

One of the cleanest and nicest rest Areas I have ever stopped at

Super nice rest area. The day we were there we saw a dog that appeared to have been abandoned or lost. Could not see any tags. Blue Heeler / Australian Cattle Dog. Typical grey whitish with black patches. Larger than most I’ve seen. Hoping someone can help them.

Very nice and larger than most rest areas. Many covered picnic tables with BBQ grilles, paved walking trails. Clean

Absolute a must stop. Beautiful park like setting. If you with a truck and trailer do not pull into semi truck parking, it is a long ways to bathroom. If you are in a single car, truck, or van and handicap the best place is at the front (flat surfaces), not first spots you pull into (all stairs from parking). Saved it as a love on my maps.

A nice, small, warm and welcoming, folksy, functional, clean rest area. Has a lovely rose garden mixed in with azaleas. There are plenty of tall shady trees scattered in a hilly terrain with winding driveway. It’s perfect to park in a quiet shady spot to have a quick snooze (which is exactly what I did) . The hilly terrain offered good sound barrier from the highway or truck parking area. This is a great if you are traveling with a nervous or skittish dog not used to loud noises or just want to catch a few quick zzz’s. It’s exactly just what I was looking for.
