I stopped into the Pennsylvania Welcome Center last summer, in June 2025, on my drive back to Ohio…read morefrom Virginia. I needed to use the toilet and I noticed the welcome center sign while driving so it was a perfect time for a rest stop. The Pennsylvania Welcome Center in Warfordsburg, PA is clean and spacious. The women's bathroom is a standard one that you'll find at other welcome centers. The welcome center has a room filled with visitor guides, magazines, and flyers of places to see and things to do in the area. Plus, there were two women at the front desk working who were available to answer questions. I took a Pennsylvania state travel guide book as I left since it is free. I can't remember if I saw vendor machines in the lobby of the building because I am writing this review a year and a few months later but I am sure there was a snack and drink machine. Infact, I just browsed the pics posted on Yelp and someone posted a photo of vending machines. Overall, the welcome center is nice and clean. Stop in for a bathroom break and to get a snack and a drink from the vending machines. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 188/250 total reviews in 2026 - 1029 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 12 September 2026

Sideling Hill rest stop, about 7 miles west of Hancock, provides clean facilities, nice views, and a welcome center. We always drop a few quarters into the tourist-binoculars just to see as far as we can :-) There's a few picnic tables and benches. You can stretch your legs on a variety of walkways, including a stairway partway up the mountain and a pedestrian bridge across the highway. We just walked around near the The Visitor's Center, and bought from the snack and soda machines inside.

The bathrooms are a bit old, but cleaner than you would think. It is mainly one way so its only for going West. If you need to go back Eastward, then you need to drive another 2.8 miles to the exit to go back. Nice to have, but could be better.

This is kind of that - the Center had the cutest Virginia Is For Lovers sign and me and my love wanted a pic in front of it lmao. **************** Growing up, we did a lot of road trips and my mom taught me to avoid rest areas. Make sense from a safety perspective as women. Welcome Centers are typically a class of their own though - and this one just across the state line off I-81 is no exception. Brightly lit, inviting, ample tractor trailer parking, and sparkling clean - I can't believe I've driven past it hundreds of times and never even noticed it. Too busy making a beeline for the Bojangles at the next exit lmao. On one side of the center are the restrooms - choose from men, women, and single room "family." Truly a spot for everyone - IYKYK. The bathrooms themselves were incredibly clean, and there were a couple of larger stalls for accessible access. As a fat, nothing worse than rubbing up against the door or the seat :shivers: going into a bathroom stall. There was even a stall with a mini commode perfect for smaller people and kids. On the other side was the actual welcome center - staffed with an actual employee and hundreds of brochures, booklets, and coupon books of state attractions. Lots of vending machines too. There are two entrances - the front for car drivers and the back for tractor trailer drivers. We had some Truck Business to attend to in nearby Winchester and parked the rig overnight to sleep, then left the truck here for a few hours and it was perfectly safe. We also had our dog with us (mind your business) and were able to give him a long sniff walk around the property and tucker him out. There were a lot of employees tending to the restrooms and the grounds and they were all very friendly. Just a very nice vibe and not at all the seedy trafficking spot drilled into my head since birth lol. Now, I can't speak for what happens when the sun goes down, but during the daylight hours this is worth a stop. Enjoy!

This is the first rest stop when you enter Virginia from the West Virginia border. We stopped here…read morefor a quick bathroom break. We travel constantly and o must say this is one of the best rest stops I have ever been to. It is clean both inside and outside. Very spacious with lots of vending machines and an area to sit and relax or have a meal. The men's and women's bathrooms are kept clean and tidy and are also big and can handle numerous patrons at a time. The outside is just the same, grounds are beautifully maintained and they even have a large "LOVE" sign for pictures of your trip to their state. Graph a magazine or brochure from the rack and see everything this state has to over. I wish all rest areas were like this one, your trip would be so much more enjoyable.

On my multiple trips back and forth on I-70 I usually bypass this rest stop, it's in a weird area…read more For more than one reason. Recently I had to stop because I needed to do some work related stuff. It also didn't hurt that I needed to use the facilities. Getting off at this rest stop can be a bit tricky. This sits at the top of a crest where three lanes of traffic (used to allow for slower moving big rigs to be on the right) goes down to two. So if you are scurrying along to pass those big rigs, you may miss it or have to cut it close to make the exit to the rest stop. Once on the lot, just follow the signs to where regular cars/trucks/suvs would go. The building on the grounds are what you would expect at a rest stop. They do have some things here that are to entertain or educate you, but they have been directly in the sunlight so much that they are bleached or just plain old destroyed. Facilities are well taken care of and usable. My main purpose here was to do a real quick work thing and then continue on my way. The cell service here is bad. I had LTE at most and did not matter what I was trying to do, just would not work. Totally not their fault, but if it is against the law to text or hold a handheld device while driving, they might want to invest in WiFi or something at these rest stops. Getting back onto the highway is a bit tricky as well. Leaving from the regular vehicle lot you go on what feels like a winding country road. Then you have to rush yourself in hopes that you can make it back on the highway without causing any delays.

Unfortunately, the new owner's behavior was unprofessional and, frankly, upsetting. When we called for help with the front door (which wouldn't open), he responded with hostility, telling us he wasn't our "servant" and proceeding to lecture us for nearly 20 minutes -- without letting us speak. The call was loud, one-sided, and extremely uncomfortable. It escalated further when we were briefly locked out remotely, seemingly as a way to assert control. Feeling threatened, we stayed inside the rest of the evening, watching the door. We also spoke with another group checking in the next day who had their own negative experience. One of them said, unprompted: "This man should not be running a B&B." We agree. I rarely write negative reviews, but in this case, there are much more welcoming, safe, and professional options in Hancock -- I highly recommend choosing one of those instead.
