Nice little post office. Parking lot is bit narrow and not much parking, but usually not so busy that it's an issue. Staff is courteous and friendly, small town service. Had issues with mail getting redirected or dropped off days late so go a PO Box, & it sorted it out. The hours of operation are unusual, so it can be hard to remember, they close daily from 12:30-2:30, and like the other comments, I agree that it is a inconvenient extensive mid-day period to be closed. I definitely gone there and been caught off guard or disappointed by them not being open...but, it prompted me to be more aware of their hours. Over all it's a decent place. A small town post office, everyone knows everyone and the service reflects that.

the women who work in this post office couldn't be nicer yet professional. The reason I gave only 2 stars is not their fault: I hate the big gap in hours of business. Many times I've shown up at 2pm, etc because I forget the big gap. I wouldn't mind an hour break, but two? Also my mailman stinks and has even shoved things (boxes) in my box so hard I can't get them out, he has broken the door off because he shut it so tight I guess the next day he couldn't open it (I couldn't!), I am sick of him and I hear others complain too. This better get fixed or I will complain higher.
