Enoch Christoffersen Rest Stop: Oct 15, 2025…read more This is one of the safest rest stops along CA-99. It's a truck stop offering amenities like: restrooms, water fountain, picnic tables, and dog friendly spots. The toilets are not always clean but this rest area is very convenient. Accessible from California State Highway Route 99, you can enter the rest stop, use the rest room, rest your eyes, grab some water, have some snacks, and be on your way, going either Northbound or Southbound. Location: About 2.3 miles South of Turlock, CA

Clean restrooms (a surprise), level parking and even a few spots with some shade. It is named for the former mayor of Turlock who served for 22 years and lobbied hard to ensure that Highway 99 was a help to the city. [Review 21021 overall - 537 in California - 2006 of 2023.]

Shop had plenty of what you need, neatly laid out, like someone actually pays attention around here. Lot size feels tight compared to bigger rest spots nearby. Folks still camped at fuel pumps during their half-hour break - same old story What really caught my attention? The crew here - they're super kind, totally down-to-earth. They said hello right away, offered help without waiting to be asked, yet never seemed irritated or in a hurry, which is rare at roadside spots. All things considered, this spot felt relaxed, simple to pull into and leave, somewhere I'd happily visit once more. Without doubt, among the top-tier Love's I've seen

While I've passed this point several times, I didn't think this would be interesting, after stopping on the other side. There is much to see, as you can tell from the photos.

Vista: a ​view, ​especially a ​beautiful ​view from a high ​position…read more I have a soft spot for public access places like parks, beaches, and rest areas... 'Vista points like this one, the California Aqueduct, qualify as well. It's called Vista Point - California Aqueduct because it sits adjacent to the aqueduct. "You are here!" - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/vista-point-california-aqueduct-newman?select=WhzgFy-UFMQjD3GQSa3-hw My thoughts on this are as follows: 1. Places like this are a privilege, NOT a right. 2. The state/government doesn't have to provide a roadside rest area, public park, beach, or a "place with a great view." (i.e. - Vista point) 3. I'm thankful and appreciative for these amenities. If you've ever played @ a city/state park, beach, used a public restroom, stopped @ a rest area to stretch your legs on a long @ss road trip, then you too have enjoyed the benefits of just what I'm talking about. The next time you come upon a vista point, you may want to take a moment and check it out... It'll only take a mere 15 - 30 minutes out of your very, long & exciting drive. Sometimes you just have to stop and enjoy the view... 'And if you time it just right, catch an awesome sunset. I've stopped at a few vista points on my many road trips to and from Southern California. I've been to this particular I-5 south, vista point three or four times. Think of a vista point as a barebones rest stop... 'With a view. There's no restrooms, no water, just a paved lot... 'And a view. The view - http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/vista-point-california-aqueduct-newman?select=QcqMRqbTfnjlh-HicROE0A Often, when I do drive by this location, I usually see a big rig sitting up here and on this particular day it was no different. There was a big rig, plus a small RV, and a couple who like me simply stopped to catch the sun as it set and disappeared into the horizon. For me, it wasn't just "another road trip sunset." Metaphorically, it was much more... The sun was setting on a yet another chapter of this adventure we call life. (Hey, I'm no Walt Whitman but I try.) Make it Great! Laugh well, laugh often...

I'm not a fan of all that switching of freeways and all that traffic. I've driven it before, but if he's with me he takes over. In my mind I drive halfway. As I said this is our stop. It has everything we need. Plenty of parking. It's always a busy stop but never jammed packed. The truck park on the straight away while the cars park in the lot. The rest stop has two sets of bathrooms. Two for men and two for women and a unisex bathroom . There is always a free stall. This time I walked into the bathroom on the right and a pigeon greeted me so I exited as I didn't want an audience as I did my business. The bathroom on the left was a mess. Either 5 stalls didn't flush or the toilets were backed up. I choose the 6th stall and went in piece. They had 4 rolls of toilet paper. Two were brand new but hard to unravel. One roll was empty and the last had just enough toilet paper for my needs. The rest stop also has picnic benches and a grassy area for kids to run around on, or as a public toilet for your furry friends. If you need a stop I highly suggest this stop.

After a few hours I figured his shift was over and maybe I can speak with a different manager on duty which there was a lady named Heather who claimed to be the manager and her herself actually did call the help desk but because the help desk said that the weight would be longer than usual due to high call volumes she said she could not wait around for them to pick up so then I asked if it did not matter to her that I was a customer and needed his transaction to be completed she pretty much told me there was nothing she could do because she was not going to wait around that she had a whole store that she had to manage so I told her okay I guess I have no other option then to call corporate her reply was do you have their number because I don't and I responded with I'm pretty sure it won't take me too long to find it online and she said okay do what you have to do in the meantime I stepped outside and went about to make that phone call while she was inside she spent the whole time on the phone looking out the window as to what I was doing probably calling Ruben to inform him that I again had returned to ask her to help me out and probably that I threatened to call corporate the time that she spent looking at what I was doing she could have really been on hold with the pilot help desk to make the transaction go through but she was more worried about taking care of her store which she did not leave the desk after I left the desk to do what she said she had to do ultimately corporate told me they cannot force them to do anything but they were just put it down in the books and make sure that they received proper training for those transactions in the future. I believe they need more training in overall customer service and learning how to keep learning and not believe that they already know everything and there is nothing a customer can show them that they don't already know very disappointed in both managers because they are just passing that on to their employees who will probably follow their procedures on handling situations like this.
