“Cheapest gas at the stop.Was having minor car troubles and one of the employees took the time to help me even though they were busy. Will stop here every road trip!”
“It's one of two drugstores in town. This one has a drive-thru which is a plus. The limited pharmacy hours is a downer, but the town doesn't offer much & I think the city council planning dept like to keep it that way. Hey at least you know there's one in The area”
“Great service from the guy who helped me to try & save these dogs!! I needed a cup to put some water in, & he was kind/swift enough to help me w/ that. I hope the owner or someone calls to save these abandoned dogs. One of which was badly injured. I myself have been calling, and am still calling... but no one has returned my calls yet. PLEASE HELP!! Call the nearest animal shelter if you spot these dogs. PLEASE!!”

“We stopped here for diesel fuel for our RV tow vehicle. The pump stopped at exactly $ 100.00, which is extremely rare on its own, and something we never do normally. The station layout was very easy to enter and leave, something important to those of us driving a larger rig (dually pick up and 35' fifth wheel trailer), and a key reason for choosing this fuel stop. Now, the really key part is when a month later I reviewed my credit card statement, and noticed the $ 100.00 charge, the location which seemed off our route that we actually drove, and the transaction date was also odd.However, thanks to a lady named Sandra, we were provided with sufficient confirmation this was our actual transaction. Several aspects of this need to be recognized: the station operator was willing to entertain our suspicions about the charge, she spent time investigating the transaction details with her records and those of her product supplier, and she followed through with her commitment to investigate our situation and to get back to us with the results. I must also add that Sandra was very polite, professional, and thorough in her handling of my concern. Thank you Sandra, and to your product supplier for supporting the inquiries you made on our behalf ! A visitor to your lovely state, and fuel station.”
