If you’re planning a road trip of any distance, look to California’s Rest Areas when you need to take a break. These rest areas are designed to provide highway travelers, including their pooches, a safe and convenient place to refresh before continuing with their journey.
California rest areas are roadside facilities that provide, at a minimum, parking, restrooms and a pet area for the four-legged members of the family. In addition, some may have information kiosks, vending machines, picnic areas and a number even have RV Dump Stations facilities.
These rest areas are maintained and funded by Caltrans. Some are closed due to maintenance issues, its always best to have a alternate rest stop just in case.
