Cracker Barrel

We asked if we could stay in the front lot as we are too big (45 & toad) for the back lot RV spaces. They warmly welcomed us right after closing. Quiet night. There were panhandlers mostly in neighboring store lots. They did approach some of the RVs parked in back but were not rude or disrespectful. The mgr even gave us the direct phone # to the police in case we had a problem or noticed loitering on the outside rocking chairs during the night. We enjoyed a delicious to-go breakfast from CB and were out of the lot soon after they opened.

We didn’t fit in their RV parking so we pulled parallel to the curb on the side of the building towards the back across several parking spots. No one bothered us nor asked us to move. Walmart was close but saw a man just laying on the ground outside there. CB at least seemed like more lights were on, there were a couple hotels adjacent to it and it was a little busier at that intersection so it seemed safer. There were two other rigs there overnight. We didn’t have any issues. It was not very busy that night. Purchased breakfast in the morning before leaving.

Traveling from Wisconsin to Arizona. Stayed at this CB. It was behind the building next to a hotel. No other camper. Weather got below freezing. (5 degrees) Had to turn on the generator around 0100 to keep warm. No issues with this. Ate breakfast (super good and our server Tamara was super good. Definitely would stay here again, but hopefully it will be warmer. (BTW, Wisconsin's temp that night was 28)

Seemed like a much quieter/safer area than the walmart down the road so we called for permission, staff said it was no problem just park in the RV spots in the back or on the west side of the store. Had 2 other RV’s.Trains ran all night and some noise from the highway.

I called ahead and they were very welcoming. Had dinner then breakfast. Can hear train horn which I don’t mind. Otherwise a very quiet night.

Our first time staying at Crackerbarrel. Nice location- great food.
