    I wish that there were more than one or two destinations per town. I’d love to help support by adding locations, with information and pictures if I can in some way.
  • Don’t download

    We use this site all the time while traveling, and the app adds so many tools. Well worth purchasing! Of course, we are old retired folks who have time to stop at interesting things!

    I am not exaggerating when I say that we use this app constantly. It’s the first thing I open when researching a trip to a new area and I check it often to see if we have anything new around us. When we have a day or a weekend and want a little adventure we start here. We have seen so many things that we never would have known about.
  • Huge fan, great app

    I consult this app for every road trip I take, even if it’s 45 minutes from home, and I always find the coolest stuff! Seriously, everyone tells me how fun it is to road trip with me, and I explain it is all thanks to Roadside America. And omg the laugh out loud descriptions of these American treasures. Roadside America has given me some of the most magical experiences of my life. I am so grateful. The “on route” feature is a godsend also.
  • Worked for a while

    The on-route stopped working and no one will answer my emails to get it working again.
  • Literally Can’t Create an Account

    Tried to create an account. Says a “fatal error” occurs when attempting to send an email (I’m using GMAIL. Come on). Tried to contact via the website form and got a very similar error. Something is screwed up on your end and I’d guess there’s not enough money to keep all this stuff updated as technology changes
  • Route no linger works.

    The route screen no longer works. Now I just get a blank screen after entering the destination.
  • Love the premise, but has been neglected

    By Morelosquel
    This is a great app, but wow, has it been forgotten by the devs. It’s slow, ungainly, the maps I’ve purchased don’t sync between my iPhone and iPad, and location services are so incredibly slow.
  • Great app
