Most rest stops allow RVers to stay overnight to “relieve the fatigue of travel.” They’re not intended as camping destinations. If a rest area allows for overnight RV parking but not “overnight camping,” the expectation is that RVers will park their camper, sleep, and then move on after resting. This means keeping in your slides, staying hitched up, not putting down your jacks, and staying contained within your RV (no awnings, BBQs, camp chairs, or mats).
