“Channing and Taylor deserve a raise! These guys are truly amazing. The rest the staff is wonderful to work with as well. Theresa Mike and Kyle prices are going to be higher than some grocery stores but it's really a convenient store what I like about them in particular if you have something special you want ordered they will order it for you and that's what makes them different than any other stores.”

“I never entered nor purchased anything on Friday evening, Aug 4, 2023, but rather had an incredibly scary incident at the gas pump. To Richard, Ofr Allison, the guy who bought me a coke, and everyone else whose goodwill and kindness saved the day, as if you all dropped down from heaven just for me. I got home to my little community safely. I went straight to Swain's ER and met even more strangers. I am home without any extreme damage, other than looking the way I do and an NFL sized football on my lower back. Thank you so so much for all of your time and care. I've been an overly patient caretaker for years now, but this was not necessarily the vacation I was looking for. May you all have beautiful days ahead of you and no pain in your hearts.Love with all of my heart,Rebecca Hedrick-HolcombeOf Bryson City.PS - Due to my full-time caretaking situation, finances barely exist; therefore, I am seeking a driver's side door for a gold 2016 Chrysler town and country. You never know!”

“After Hurricane Helene, this gas station was remarkably well-organized! They made the rounds through the long line of cars to let everyone know it was cash only. The staff was exceptionally friendly while handling our cash. We were truly impressed by their efficiency. The ladies used walkie-talkies to coordinate with the person inside, ensuring the correct pumps were turned on. Thank you for your excellent organization and patience!”
