Overall facilities needs a little TLC. Parking lot could use some attention. Maybe put a little of that toll money to use freshening up the place. Restrooms were clean. Food at the Panda Express was good, service was great.

Nice rest stop and really cool to watch the traffic below. There's a toll tag office here, several fast food restaurants as well as a gas station on each side.

I heard that the chicken shawarma you can get here is pretty good, and it is. Try some with hot sauce (not too hot). Definitely better than another over- priced slice of pizza or a burger. Other than that, it's clean and a good place to stretch your legs.

I don't work for the oasis. Just giving a review about the place. Sorry. I would Google the phone number there. P.S. there's a McDonald's, and a Panda Express Restaurant there. Maybe you could call and speak to a manager there that would know if they're going to be open.

We bought our iPass in 2018 and at that time the O'Hara Oasis was the only Oasis that we found one. In October 2021 they had torn down the O'Hara and a few of the other Oasis'. There may have been a booth at the Lake Forest Plaza, it was late and most everything thing was closed. Purchasing through the internet is the easiest way, be sure to order at least a month before your trip.

Robert Gorczyca | Feb 5, 2021

There is a sit-down area for eating but I imagine that it will be closed off and the restaurants, all of which are operated as take-out operations, will still be in operation and you can eat in your vehicle.

I have a big OLD device. How do I update my device, add vehicles and get devices for additional devices?

A Google User | Feb 5, 2019
Theodore Mall | Feb 6, 2019

Are you talking about toll transponders? If so, either set up or log into existing account for all changes and transactions. Alternately, take your transponder to the toll facility at this Oasis or at other offices. They can help you update all the information and exchange your devices.

My truck broke down at the Lake Forest Oasis. Canโ€™t get to it till tomorrow. What are the chances Iโ€™ll get towed or a ticket? Canโ€™t reach any office to report. I have slept overnight there, but Iโ€™m paranoid since Iโ€™m not there

Mr. &. Mrs. McIntyre | Feb 5, 2019
Elsy Rodriguez | Feb 6, 2019

I lived in Highland Park for 5 years and stopped at this travel plaza many times during the day and night. I've never heard of, or seen, anyone get towed for being there overnight, but I would read the posted signs carefully to see what they allow. Also, you can call 311 and ask... they are available 24/7/365.
