Beautiful side of the highway rest area with bathrooms. No running water. Lots of parking spots for RVs and trailers as well as grass for pitching a tent. A couple of picnic tables and fire pits as well. Not the quietest with the nearby cows, highway and the train that passes every once in a while.

Highly recommend for a nights stay!

Belle place. Nous étions 3 cette nuit. Par contre, nous sommes à une intersection et le train tire les flûtes. Il a passé 3 fois cette nuit.

Lovely site just off the Trans Canada highway, stayed overnight. Clean, large garbage bins. Looked in the pit toilets but didn’t use, no toilet paper, but did have hand sanitizer.
Not busy this time of year.
Highway noise as it is next-door, manageable with earplugs.
Heard the trains a few times, it is close to a level crossing so it was accompanied by the horns.
Cows in the back field but they didn’t bother us, we heard some Moo’s.
Would definitely stay here again.
The dog loved it.

One of our favorite overnite spots crossing Canada. Clean, peaceful spots. My girlfriend heard moose in the morning. had a few trains in the night this time but its OK.

Large enough lot for RVs, but a bit unkempt. The dumpster was overflowing, did not use the restroom so cannot comment on those. Area was a bit smelly and lots of flies.

Fermé, mais aucun panneau ne prévient. Des barrières empêchent d'y entrer. Nous avons du continuer notre route.

Good and free place to sleep here. But it is noisy beacause of highway.

Bonne place gratuit pour dormir. Mais c’est bruyant à cause de l’autoroute

Super belle place, pas loin de la route avec pleins de tables à pic-nique. Il y a plusieurs zones, certaines sont loins de la route d’autre proche.
Aucune pancarte qui interdit de se stationner la nuit.

Super nice place, not far from the road with lots of picnic tables. There are several areas, some are far from the road of others nearby.
No sign prohibiting parking at night.

Road side rest stop. Huge grassy area for tents, some isolated paved spots for RVs, noisy but that comes with the convenience of being close to the highway

Gate is closed for some unknown reason. When does Saskatchewan open their parks???

There is more space more behind, not only for two big rigs. The place is nice, but the toiletts were quit small and dirty, when I was here.
