The staff was really…read morefriendly, then again it could've been me being a sucker for the southern accent from the Asian girl that staffed the front desk. I expected a basic room, and that's what I got. It wasn't sexy, but I was comfortable and the room was clean. The decor seemed a bit dated. Definitely, you get what you pay for, and I would go back. Since it's 2008, I hope they've done some remodeling.

It was a little run down but definitely a decent place to stay for a night or two. All of the staff…read morewere really friendly and you can't beat the price! The first room we got was clean but just really run down. The showerhead was busted and leaking so I called the front desk. Within 5 minutes, they had us moved to another room which was much nicer and a lot bigger. The sheets were a little rough but I actually slept really well. I would stay here again. The place needed to be updated but it was overall a great experience.

A decent rest stop near Lynchburg There are 6 rest areas on…read morethe northbound side of I-95 in South Carolina. This rest area is located on northbound I-95 at mile marker 139 near Lynchburg in Sumter County, South Carolina. It is a right-hand exit off the interstate, making it easy to access while traveling north. There are separate parking sections for large trucks and cars. The car parking closest to the road and the truck parking farther off. The main building is a single-story brick building with a shingle roof that looks wheelchair accessible. It houses clean and functional restrooms. There is a vending building to the north that is also a single-story affair. It offers snacks and drinks behind locked bars that did not give me a very safe feel for the stop. Shaded areas are available all around the site, along with some picnic tables scattered throughout for resting or eating. The entire area was free of trash during our visit, contributing to a pleasant stop. While it's not the fanciest rest area, it does provide the essentials for a quick break during long drives. Overall, I would recommend this as a decent place to stop on your travels through South Carolina. Enjoy.

This rest area is located on I-95 at mile marker 139 in Sumter County, South Carolina. There are…read moreboth northbound and southbound locations for this rest area. (At the time of writing this review, the Yelp listing is named "Rest Area I-95 North." To clarify, I'll submit a name change to "Rest Area I-95 Mile Marker 139" because this listing captures reviews, photos, etc. from both sides. Hopefully, the Yelp moderators approve.) If traveling south on I-95 into SC, this is the first rest area after the Dillon Welcome Center near the North Carolina border (mile marker 195). In other words, after the welcome center, it's about 56 miles until this rest area. After this rest area, the next rest area south is at mile marker 99, about 40 miles away. It's another welcome center, the Santee Welcome Center. If traveling north on I-95 in SC, mile marker 99 has a rest area. It's not a welcome center like the southbound side. According to Google Maps and Yelp, this rest area has an address in the town of Lynchburg, SC. However, Lynchburg is actually 16.5 miles up 95 and highway 58 in Lee County. For navigation, on Google Maps, the southbound listing for this rest area is named "Sumter County, SC Rest Area" and the northbound rest area is named "Rest Area I95 North." The southbound side of this rest area has a small log cabin. Above the entrance, a sign reads, "Sumter County Welcome Center. 'The Gamecock County.'" Sumter County was named after Revolutionary War general Thomas Sumter (1734-1832). He was nicknamed the "Fighting Gamecock." That's where the University of South Carolina Gamecocks' nickname and mascot came from. We stopped at the northbound side on a recent trip from Georgia to North Carolina. It was fine. The rest area was definitely showing its age. The grounds and facilities appeared clean and well maintained. We visited around 2:15pm on a Saturday and I saw staff working on-site. This is a small rest area with basic amenities -- vending machines and picnic tables (mostly uncovered). Along with using the restrooms, my wife and I had a bite to eat in the car. We parked in front of the refreshments structure. It was peaceful. According to the SCDOT, South Carolina has nine welcome centers and 19 rest areas. You can view a Google Map of them here: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?msa=0&hl=en&ie=UTF8&t=m&ll=33.728438112159736%2C-80.81117&spn=2.899412%2C4.423489&source=embed&mid=12xkZRPbpJmK-c-xRLr6cAWn_780&z=7

From the first time I tried their food on…read moremy own to having them cater our 20th Class Reunion this month, every single experience has been amazing. Mrs. Donna and her team are the true definition of Southern hospitality. I've tried several items from their menu, and they have yet to disappoint. Everything is always flavorful, fresh, and made with care. What I really appreciate about this establishment is their communication. You never have to wonder what's happening next -- they keep you informed every step of the way. It's rare these days to find a business that follows up consistently, but Jackson's does. They'll tell you exactly what they can and can't do, what to expect, and make sure every detail is handled with care so your experience is smooth from start to finish. They were instrumental in helping us prepare for our class reunion. The pricing was reasonable, the food was exceptional, and when I say people were asking us "Who did the catering?" -- they truly were! Everyone enjoyed the food. I've ordered from them multiple times now, and they've become a go-to -- and especially for catering. I continue to recommend Jackson's to others because they've been such a pleasure to work with. If you're looking for great food, friendly service, and people who genuinely care about your experience -- Jackson's is it.

Most are family owned, and along with those that have been there for a while, this could be a great area for family meals on this side of Clayton soon. That would certainly be a welcome occurrence, I believe.
