- MBMargaret BeaulacSep 24, 20255.0We are so lucky to have this post office and those who work there. In the 35 years that we have used this post office it has always been a pleasant fun experience.
- PEPenny EvansMar 11, 20255.0Always helpful and kind.
- DLDarcy LockeJul 20, 20241.0Everybody working there is very nice but the hours are ridiculous. The whole building locks down so you can't even check your mailbox. Just ridiculous.
- DDDebbieMay 22, 20221.0I mailed and re-mailed, an envelope to MDI - twice it was returned as "undeliverable as addressed". Seriously, was it really that difficult to read the popular road name, written in cursive? I have re-mailed the envelope again with street name printed above cursive writing. Third times the charm!?
