Looks like we'll be coming out I-40 to KOH. We'll take 40 to Barstow, then drop down 247 to JV. We will be arriving this Sunday sometime but need to get freshwater for the trailer somewhere near the lakebed. Thinking Barstow. Anybody have any ideas where we can easily grab 40 gallons?:)

Find a fire station

There is a TA truck stop at the Lenwood exit off the 15. It has an island for RV to get gas, propane, dump, and water to fill up. I have not used the water myself, but it did not say "non-potable" or anything so I think it would be fine. It is not far from the 40/247 intersection.

I doubt its potable but you can try it. I know the loves truck stop at the lenwood exit has water too. Lenwood road is the second exit past Barstow road/247 heading south on 15.

BLM office, Cal Fire station, or local fire station is your best bet.
