Find out if the rest area facilities have restrooms, water, picnic tables, phone, handicapped access, an RV dump station (for liquid waste disposal), food vending, a pet area, and even if you can park your RV, semi truck, or bus.

California rest areas are maintained and funded by Caltrans. Just keep in mind that some may be closed due to the winter season or for maintenance needs, it is best to have an alternate rest stop just in case.
