    Clean restrooms, adequate supplies & fixtures that work. Nice landscaping. Pleasant picnic areas. Much highway noise. Sidewalks & parking lot areas well maintained. Roomy parking for commercial vehicles.

    It's a little noisy being so close to the interstate! But super cute stop, but make sure you wash your hands twice. The bathrooms can get a little nasty. Giant parking spots, and a good little walk for a dog. Or just to walk around and work your legs out after sitting so long.

    Beautiful place for a picnic or just rest. Large Canopies over several 4 table sites that would be perfect for groups. You can roll a wheel chair right in to the picnic tables on a level approach.

    All the restrooms in Missouri are on point. They may not be new but they're very clean, well maintained and safe. There's always a place to walk your dogs.

    Yes this is the ladies room and no, those aren't what you think!  Newfangled handwashers.

    really nice rest area with unusual handwashing fixtures in the bathroom. Nice covered picnic tables. Tons of parking, clean, pleasant, a historical marker out front - everything a rest area should be!

    Flower beds in this well-cared for rest stop ..,

    See all

    Wow, what a rest stop. Super high tech. I really liked it. It adds interest to a monotonous road trip. Very nice.

    Lots of space to have a picnic or spread out a blanket and take a nap in the grass.

I made the business page on Friday but before I had time to write a review someone or something had changed the place name and address and the location on the map (kept the check in pictures though!) so far my several requests to fix the information have been ignored. guessing that even if there's (pronoun) doing this (pronoun) isn't necessarily qualified... Right? ample parking for vehicles large and small (big swoopy curve for pedestrian safety because it's important for some folks) plus an extra little section after the regular parking that was cordoned off. standard vendo-land and pet areas if you need 'em plus the usual stuff on a sprawling lawn with tables and parking and shelter and all that sort of stuff. enjoy!! anyway... it's an odd little structure that doesn't look quite finished - especially the men's room - even though I'm fairly certain that it is, functionally at least. trust me on this, the whole place looks like it was put together as a proof of concept exercise rather than a actual thing. the corners are rough, there walls don't seem to fit right, and the windows don't look secure either but here it stands in all it's post modern / pre-collapse of society re-fitment serving the touring community. I wonder what's up with that extra bit though - were extended stays permitted with permit when motoring across the country was considered an extravagance? an adventure? a right of passage?

Quaint little casino with lots of parking stalls in front and an overflow off to the side. I'm not much of a gambler but my mom loves the game, especially the slots. She did not come up this time, but she had a great time. For me, being a non-gambler, I brought my laptop and settled in the tables near the casino's entrance. Hooked up to the wall outlet and did my thing. Watched as people queued up to receive their free gift for playing. They were handing out air fryers. Do get yourself to the service desk and sign up for your players card. Always ask of theres any free play with your sign up. You never know what their latest promo will provide.

The new Brew Brothers is just another average restaurant. Prices are in line with other like eateries. The casino is 95% worthless slot machines and/or other worthless electronic games. They have eliminated almost all table games and the few that remain are never open most of the time. Only thing good is that it's not too far of a drive from anywhere in central Missouri and with Vegas now a place only for rich people it's about as good as it gets these days. Don't expect to win any money here though! They have the machines locked down tight as they seldom ever payout anything worth talking about. Oh , sure $20-$30 here and there on occasion, but who goes to a casino to win that small amount of money considering 90% leave poorer!
