It has 2 spots for electric vehicles to "fill up". The charging stations are FREE! The downside is that is takes forever to charge. So, if you're in a rush and don't have an hour to chill while charging, then keep moving. I always appreciate a clean restroom and snacks, bonus on free charging stations!

I went to this location on 08/31/2026. The staff was friendly and assisted me with getting into…read moreshower four because the code wasn't working. Initially, the "occupied" sign was showing on the lock. The employee apologized and said they had just remodeled the showers and that the PIN should have worked. He didn't know why the lock reflected "occupied." I always request a handicap-accessible shower because I am a fall risk and need the rails to hold onto. However, this shower only had one rail under the knob. I had nothing to hold onto on the side of the shower. When I turned the shower on, the water immediately started flowing onto the main floor instead of staying on the shower floor. My shoes and bag immediately got wet, and the shower rug provided was soaked. Given that this was such a small shower, it felt like the whole bathroom was flooded. While I had the shower running, I noticed that the water pressure would decrease whenever a toilet was flushed, whether it was my neighbor's toilet or one of the public toilets. This was extremely frustrating and delayed my shower. I hope Love's is able to fix these issues. Until then, I'll be avoiding this location for showers.

The employee, Jenny, was extremely rude to my wife when she was simply asking for an extra towel. We had to ask around five times before getting one. The shower was also in terrible condition. There was a dirty towel left inside, hair in the drain, mucus in the sink, and no toilet paper. For a place that charges people to use the showers, this is completely unacceptable. We asked to speak with a manager, but were told there was no manager available, leaving us with no real way to address the situation in person. On top of that, there was no one at the front counter for a while, and it took an unnecessarily long time just to get a ticket for the shower. Overall, the customer service was poor, the shower was dirty, and the whole experience was extremely frustrating. I hope management actually addresses these issues because customers should not have to repeatedly ask for basic necessities or pay to use an unclean shower. Honestly felt like we were being judge!! because of my wife and i being women. Never in my lifetime have i've expected customer service in such a judgement way. we 100% taking this too corporate. Very disappointed...

Enoch Christoffersen Rest Stop: 2026 July (5 of 5)…read more Safety First! Traveling alone can be exciting but weary. I find that I need to make frequent stops to rest my eyes. Enoch Christoffersen Rest Area is one of the safest stops that offers amenities: restrooms, water fountain, and picnic tables. This stop is also dog friendly. The patch of grass is perfect for your four-legged family members to stretch their paws. There's a stand with doggy-poop bags that makes it easy to clean up after them. There are plenty of parking spots but bear in mind that this is not an overnight stop. Located about 2.3 miles South of Turlock, CA, Enoch Christoffersen Rest Area is accessible from California State Highway Route 99. It is a state-managed facility and is well maintained. During the summer months, you will witness beautiful coloured flowers that pop up here and there. Stop to use the facilities, stretch your legs, and enjoy the flowers planted at Enoch Christoffersen Rest Area.
