Finding Rest Stops on Highways

Is there a good source for locating rest stops along the highway for planned stops? Of course the rest stops have to be open but any suggestions will help.

Tim,
I use 2 different apps, rest stops USA and rest stop finder. Although some times they are a bit slow updating closures, they are both useful. I use them both

Check out this site on your computer: http://restareas.appspot.com

I will consult it and sometimes make a note of where they are. My Rand RV GPS also shows me when they are coming up during my travels.

We use Allstays to plan and Rand McNally to alert when we are approaching.
