“Love this place! They’ve done a lot of updates over the past year and it’s looking great plus they have pay at the pump now! The restrooms are available to the public they just close the store at 11. They always have candy I don’t see at other gas stations & the owner is so friendly! Best prices around I always stop when I get the chance”

“They have a nice little dog park right beside the parking spaces reserved for charging electric vehicles. They also have an actual working air machine! as well as a spigot to fill up with potable water and a dump station for those with RV's / portable restroom trailers needing to empty their black water waste tanks. $10 dump fee You must supply your own hose. Store was clean and well stocked inside as were the restrooms. Even though it was bustling with customer's, the line for the cashier proceeded quickly. Overall, I can happily recommend this Love's location as a very nice place to stop.”
