Cracker Barrel

Great place to stop and rest when on I81. It’s right off I81, you might hear some of the noise from the cars on I81 but not to bad, we had well deserved rest.

Very comfortable and convenient place to stay overnight. When we called ahead, the staff told us the next-door temporarily closed Texas Steakhouse parking lot is an acceptable alternative if all the CB spaces are taken. I would give it five stars for the location, availability and friendly staff but took off one star for the foul smelling water draining from the building through the parking lot. If that is chronic, it should be addressed. Overall a great stay.

Arrived at 9 pm Saturday evening as a train was going by. It was dark, so I couldn’t see it, but it sounds like it’s less than 100 yards away.

Restaurant was still open and staff was great but bathroom was dirty and stinky.

There were 6 other RV’s here by 9:30. Feels safe but the road noise is significant.

We would have preferred spending the night here. We found the spaces were not long enough for our truck and 30’ trailer. And there was a loud train that went through as we checked it out.

Typical overnight stop at Cracker Barrel, I parked in the very back row of spaces leaving the RV spots for later arrivals especially since it was a Saturday night. Wow, I've never seen so many RVs and vans, it was like an RV park but tighter. Rigs parked all over the entire back parking lot but it was all friendly and relatively quiet.

The road noise was very loud until late at night but a decent sound machine would drown it out. I'd advise parking as far from the dumpsters as possible, they stink and are oozing trash juice that also is smelly.
