“This is one of the nicest Rural King Stores in the area. It's large and has a lot of different kinds of items. I especially like their dog and cat stuff, foods, snacks,cages, etc. They also have a lot of thing for cars, trucks and clothes for country people like me. They have stuff for most kinds of farm animals and pets. It's the big variety of items, that I like about Rural King Stores. Especially this one it's got a lot of items that I don't find at all of the other smaller Rural King Stores.”
