A fun site not to be missed traveling on I 95
South Of The Border
This place is crazy, the attractions are on both sides of the road. I your in South Carolina you have to this.
Location	Dillon, South Carolina, US
Opened	1950
South of the Border is an attraction on Interstate 95 (I-95), US Highway 301 (US 301) and US 501 in Dillon, South Carolina, just south of Rowland, North Carolina. It is so named because it is just south of the border between North Carolina and South Carolina, and was the half way point to Florida from New York in the early days of motor travel. The area is themed in tongue-in-cheek, faux-Mexican style. The rest area contains restaurants, gas stations, a video arcade, and a motel, and truck stop as well as a small amusement park, a mini golf course, shopping and fireworks stores. Its mascot is Pedro, a caricature of a Mexican bandido.

Ummm no
The only nice things I have to say; the front desk mans wife beater didn’t have stains on it and the roach in the tub was mostly dead... unbelievable how filthy the room was and the sink was broken being held up by a pole.
