Don't but the pre packaged Harris ranch beef jerky. It tastes just as bad as every other factory made jerky loaded with preservatives. Far cry from the delicious fresh jerky the used to sell here.

For a rest area it’s decently nice and active. The convenience store was very crowded and way too small for the amount of people there. The price for anything in there (and anywhere) reminds me of “the fleecing of America”.

Thankful for free air pump - my car threw a low tire pressure warning at me (was a temp glitch) and I stopped here to check for any tire issues and stretch - good bathroom and big pump site adjacent to Harris Ranch
