Lee Hi Travel Plaza Campground

We stayed here again for a single night...had the whole pull-thru overnight area to ourselves. Site 46 was sloping a bit front to back and the gravel base has eroded. We really like this stopover due to it's proximity to fuel and the interstate...however we noticed there is some very very deep washouts along the gravel road in the pull-thru/campground sites numbered in the 40's... And if you tried driving in the dark and missed those huge ruts you could be in a pickle. Site 45 or 44 exhibited deep washouts all along the gravel pad...so be careful if you stay here. Hopefully the staff will fix it up soon.

This is right above the truck stop. I probably would have boondocked here, but we stayed in August and wanted to make sure we had plenty of AC. FHU, PT and a good place to refuel with diesel. The gas station looked cramped. Longer rigs who use gas might have a hard time maneuvering here. There are several old full time RV’s, but they were reasonably well maintained and quite. There were also several people there just for the night. The mountains were pretty and I caught a good sunset.

This review is for the Travel Plaza itself. The campground is behind the Travel Plaza. If you have the capability to boondock, this is an awesome stop. Several different parking lots, all paved. We opted for the parking lot in the rear and we got an end spot, put out our slides and ran our generator. Very quiet, clean and easy access from the highway.

Very very busy travel plaza. We did not visit any of the stores or restaurants.

Would suggest if you plan on boondocking to arrive mid afternoon to get the quietest spots. The campground has 40 sites and it looked fairly busy when we arrived.

We would definitely stay here again for free overnight!

This is a very convenient overnight stop - and some campers appear to be staying here longer as well. Heading South on I-81 got off Exit 195. Google maps indicated we would have to do a U-turn, but that was inaccurate. Large driveway on the left to enter Travel America truckstop...drove around the side to park and to walk to the rear entrance - fuel desk. Checked in quickly and drove back and to the right and up the hill into the campsites. TIP: The road in the back of the travel plaza that heads into campsites is one-lane and curved. Make sure no one else is using it when towing! Had pull-through site 46 and it was almost level - good enough - hooked up to W & E for the night. The place was jammed up with semi's at night and almost empty when we pulled out at 10am next morning. We camped at Lee Hi Campground in a Fifth Wheel.

I have stayed here at least 4 nights, each stay one night.

Campground is on a hill well above the truck stop. I have been in several sites,all small. I have never reserved in advance, but even when "full", they have had sites that work for me (I have a van) .

If one can ignore the white noise of the trucks idling below, the campground is quiet and clean. Not fancy. Not pretty. But it feels safe.
