I just got gas here. I did not go in. The reason for stopping here was, pulling a 16' trailer with a pickup is kinda hard when they don't give enough space to swing the trailer to the pumps. This was spacious and easily enter and leave the lot. Plenty of room for my situation.

Fabulous stop with a tour bus! I’m a Tour Guide and I called a few minutes before we were stopping just to give them a heads up and they were so super friendly and got us through. Lots of self checkouts and great bathrooms for our guests! Thanks!
