Places to stay in Chowchilla, California
Chowchilla is a city in Madera County, California. Chowchilla is located 15 miles northwest of Madera, at an elevation of 240 feet. It is a principal city of the Madera–Chowchilla Metropolitan Statistical Area. The city is the location of two California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation women's facilities, the Central California Women's Facility and Valley State Prison for Women. The name "Chowchilla" is derived from the Native American tribe of Chauchila Yokut Indians which once lived in the area. The name itself evidently translates as "Murderers" and is apparently a reference to the warlike nature of the Chauchila tribe. The Chauchila Indians were inadvertently responsible for the first white men "discovering" Yosemite Valley, which occurred when the Chauchila Indians were being pursued by a band of whites. References to the Indian tribe still abound in Chowchilla, and the town's high school still retains the moniker of "Redskins" as their local mascot. Places to eat in the region include Tea Garden Restaurant, Canton Chinese Restaurant, Panaderia Conchita, and Wah Sing.
If you are travelling in the area, Chowchilla is located close to Chowchilla District Memorial Hospital, Chowchilla Cemetery, Koff Lateral, Chapman Farms Airport and Appling School (historical).
