They have a laundry room equipped with six washing machines and twelve dryers, and the showers are immaculate and well-kept. The water pressure is fantastic! The restaurant is outstanding, featuring excellent service and delicious food at reasonable prices. There’s also a spacious parking lot for truck drivers. Everyone here is so friendly and welcoming. I would love to spend a 34-hour reset here!

When you arrive, you can grab your own drink, choose a table, look over the menu, and then head to the checkout or to the fantastic server, Jessica! Your order will come out just right. The restaurant also boasts a large dining room, a bar, and an outdoor seating area with a bar, weather permitting. Plus, you’ll find a McDonald's, Taco Bell, and a Pizza Hut Express nearby. The restrooms are clean and well-maintained, with plenty of stalls. The entire place has a great selection of gift ideas and is proudly decorated with a Vikings theme! Rhonda was incredibly helpful with my questions and mentioned that even though the place looks new, it's been around for over 20 years! This will definitely be a spot we return to whenever we’re traveling through the area!

The food was fantastic, and the service was truly exceptional. As a partially disabled driver, I often find it challenging to receive good treatment at truck stops, as many aren’t accommodating for drivers with disabilities. However, this place was easily accessible and the staff were incredibly helpful. I’ll definitely stop by anytime I’m passing through.

Just a little different since Covid. But they are open and the food is amazing! I have the 16-oz Steak and Skal Saga Spuds! Steak was boiled to perfection and a potato was buttery as I like her amazing food.

Awesome truck stop. Large store with the regular and a bunch of other items. Several food options to chose from. The sit down restaurant was pretty good. Shower rooms were great. Clean and very modern. This stop is up on par with Iowa80 minus the size.
