    Not sure why this rest stop is poorly rated, I was very impressed, it was very clean.

    Oh wow, where do I start! Back in December I was on my way home with a man whom (now my boyfriend…read morewow) and we stopped at this gas station. I was astonished by the animals and the level of customer service. The entire herd was welcoming, eager and excited for pets. Fun fact: you can grab treats inside for the herd, 50 cents and a nice dropping of pellets will dispense. Months later, here I am in bed thinking about the Sublett Fuel Stop. Godspeed.

    I absolutely love these reviews and comments. I am thankful we stopped because it allowed me to…read morestumble upon the entertainment associated with this Yelp page. It's a good way to pass some of the long road trip. I didn't look the business up prior to stopping, though my husband pointed out the poor rating. Sometimes the mom and pop stores are the best experiences, compared to chain stores, not so here. We stopped simply for gas (overpriced, as previously mentioned by others). Like many travelers, we figured why not get a snack and go to the bathroom. There is no public restroom, and as mentioned by everyone the person (man, in this case) behind the counter was not the friendliest. The customer area of the store is probably 8x10, and the snack selection was very limited. As others noted, I'd try to stop at the gas station before or hold off until after, if possible. Unless you are looking for the entertainment of interacting with the staff and animals. 1 star because that's the minimum you can give and their gas price sign made me laugh. Though not nearly as much as this Yelp page and the comments.

    The smallest foot print for a truck stop I've ever experienced. But amazing what this franchise…read moreholder has done with what must be an old gas station. Very clean, including the very heavily used restrooms. Staff constantly keeping everything stocked and registers manned. That staff is great too, welcoming and helpful. Since it is so small I felt I needed to ask if it was ok to park overnight . A lovely member of the team walked me outside and showed me a space my van would fit and I'd feel comfortable. It was a hot day and I was feeling especially sticky after visiting and walking the spiral jetty. So I inquired about showers and went into sticker shock at the cost. I headed out to get my van parked for the night. Sipping a cold drink I reevaluated spending $17. Collecting my shower kit I headed back inside for my first ever truck stop shower. Totally worth the price! And I realized I was getting a very good value. Spotlessly clean room. Plenty of hooks and little shelves for my products. I thought I'd get a towel but did not expect a bathmat and washcloth as well! A lifetime of campground showers at a quarter a minute and cleaned once a day did not prepare me for the comfort of a truck stop shower! The truck stop is as clean as possible with so much use but the shower was spotless. Thank you to all the staff at this flying J and to the owner who obviously is a caring manager of his staff.

    Truck and Autos welcome!…read more Great stop for a snack and bathroom break! This is a busy location. There is an allocated spot for big rigs to park and gas up. The smaller rigs have a big area to use. Thank you for a clean and roomy location to stop and frequent as needed!
