“I love this gas station because it's got such a small town feel. The woman that runs the place or was working was so friendly it was amazing. Well I did still have to prepay for my gas she told me it's only because it's my first time there and she doesn't know me. And that's true it was my first time and I completely understand because people passing it through could just easily hop back on the road they'd be gone within 2 minutes. So for her to say that tells me that the rest of the locals are able to fill up their gas first and then come in to pay because it's that kind of small town gas station. And I love that. The way was super friendly she gave me directions to the park and directions to a place to eat. She was like my mother in the level of her wanting to help me. And the gas price wasn't even a total ripoff given that there's no gas stations in the immediate area and instead the gas price was reasonable. Lol.”

“Never disappointed with the very friendly staff and the skill set with the food is always on point, I stop here several times a week with my tractor trailer, but today they went above and beyond most as my bank card was declined because a electricity bill came out late and over drew my account, so I was bumming out and about to leave without my lunch and a staff member walked my lunch out to me and just gave it to me, I can't say enough good about this place and the friendly employees, God bless everyone that works there, thank you very much”
