- LMLaura MurdockNov 14, 20255.0Stopped here for fuel. There was plenty of room during the day to take a 30. Store was clean and staff was nice.
- DBDenise BuchananNov 12, 20251.0Me and my husband went to subway and got food and cookies and the bread was old and the cookies was so hard u can literally put somebody eyes out smh never again
- DSDaniel SuttonOct 25, 20251.0Don’t waste your time trying to use the air here. If you’ve got another option for fuel, take it! I tried to pump my steers up to 110 PSI, and their air system couldn’t even get the job done. I was sitting at 103, and after several attempts — with air still coming out of the hose — my tires actually lost pressure because there was more air in my tires than what their system was putting out.
- HXHeather XOct 12, 20255.0Eddy was very friendly and allowed us to stay overnight in our RV. Some truck noise but still got a good night's sleep. Store was well stocked, has a Subway and Taco Bell but they were closed by the time we got there.
