The thing for the potable water is gone now, they removed it. And for the dump, it was closed today at 6pm… don’t know if it’s open at some hours or just closed.

Nice place, quick, easy to use! Clean toilet. Garbage, on my way to Mexicali.

Sanitation dump station, well designed with steep sides. Non-potable water hose, but a spigot about 15 feet west is available by trash cans but you’ll need your own hose.

This is east bound, southern. Dump was at the end of the rest area so if you pull up to dump, you can’t reverse back to enjoy the rest area behind you.
Basically you’ll want to use the restrooms etc before dumping because once you are done with dump, you’ll be thrown back on the highway.
We don’t l think the spigot by the dump is potable because it is downstream of the backflow preventer valve.
There’s a spigot further before the dump which is not labeled but likely that’s potable. Too bad we didn’t see this as we can’t back up.

Awesome! Free and easy and convenient to use. I was able to flush my tanks and take my time as no one else was waiting. Also has drinking water

Very nice dumping oasis in a sea of costly dump stations. Water pressure is stronger on the eastbound/northern one.

Both east and west bound dumps are open and have drinking water taps that work.

Coordinates are wrong. They are actually: (32.7743609, -115.6681886). Dump is now open, all the way at the end before reentering the highway.

Both East and West bound dumping areas are closed. Not sure if it’s temporary or not.
