    If I’m passing here during a roadtrip I’m stopping. I will forever stand by the fact that this place is better than any Buc-ee’s. Yes, I said it. It’s clean, huge, and has everything you could possibly need (and a few things you didn’t know you needed until you saw them). It’s the perfect reset stop to stretch your legs, refuel, and grab snacks. My pup also loves it because there’s plenty of space to run laps around the building and burn off road-trip energy. That said, the dog relief area in the back is… pretty gross. It would be way nicer if it were bigger and better maintained. Overall, this place is a road-trip essential. I’ll stop every time.

    I’ve been by the truck stop a few times now while on long road trips (just a normie and not a truck driver, though); it’s a great stop for whatever travel comforts you need: restrooms, showers, fast-food cafe, sit-down restaurant, novelty and gift shopping, dog wash, and trucking/travel supplies. As of January 2026, it seems that a dog park has also been added! It is well-made and clean, with two separate sections for large and small dogs. There is a lot to see, so plan on a longer stop if you want to allow yourself time to explore. For truck drivers, there is a movie theater, showers, laundry, dentist, barber, chiropractor, and (I think?) massage.

    Probably the BEST truck stop I have ever visited! However, we made the mistake of eating at the buffet yesterday when we were there. The food was old! The only thing that was fresh was the salad bar. To which I watched the young girl changed it out. The waitress needs to learn her job better. Plain and simple she was rude! No, this will not stop me from going to the truck stop, but clearly it will be for fast food and never the buffet again! Over priced for crap food!

    My experience was okay to begin with. However when I was checking out in the chrome store there was a nice young girl who was very helpful and hust bright all around. The guy Bryan whos name i only remember purely for the purpose of writing this review was making really inappropriate and sensual comments on about the girl. You could very clearly tell she was uncomfortable in every way yet still tried to stay professional. As a costumer even I was uncomfortable the way he was talking to and about her and was looking at her was absoutually repulsive. This was about a week ago and I just so happened to pass through there again and to my surprise ehe was still working there. My best advise for people going in the future: dont bring your kids the men who work there are disgusting.

    Don't know why I had at least 5 different employees circling me while I tried to find a souvenir magnet... My bf overheard them say "watch what these people do". I worked retail for 10 years so I can read employees well - we did NOT appreciate the suspicion and honestly would have bought more souvenirs if it weren't for the employees hovering at midnight.
