Ok, so we made our yearly journey to Manistee to indulge in The Painted Lady and its succulent and…read moreheavenly broasted chicken. Full is an understatement. So on our way back, in this pandemic, I needed an out of the way gas station and found it at M55 on the West end of Cadillac: Thirsty's! I rushed in the door doing the pee per dance but I was overwhelmed by the smell of ice cream and waffle cones. I asked where the commode was and what ice cream they carried (Ashby's, Hudsonville?) and the man answered "Homemade!" I'm like homemade? After relieving myself in the clean bathroom, I sauntered toward the parlor area and WOW! So many flavors.....basics like chocolate and vanilla bean, butter pecan, but some interesting ones like Kat Nip, which is a malt flavored ice cream with bits of Kit Kat bars in it, Creme Brûlée which is my absolute favorite, and much more! The waffle cones are their own recipe and they curl up the ends so the cone won't dribble too early. The service was EPIC, the social distancing and mask wearing was spot on and I truly feel like this experience is what has been missing from my life for the past 56 years. I'm sold and will make the effort to drive the extra couple of miles here from downtown Cadillac when I go shopping. Can't recommend this enough! Oh, and they sell quarts of the ice cream to take home too!

We needed gas. When we pulled in I thought this was your regular small town no frills standard gas…read morestation. I had to use the restroom so I went inside. WOW I was impressed. The place facility was clean. Well lit smelled great. The layout of the displays were aesthetically pleasing to the eye. I was greeted with a smile and welcomed right as I entered. The bathroom was clean tidy. The soap, toilet paper and hand paper towels filled. I really enjoyed the alcohol selection of both beer and wine. What I was most shocked about was judging them from the parking lot. So happy I went in and am writing this review. If you get a chance to stop for gas, snack and alcohol please do.

It's always dirty but you would never know they always keep the drink coolers filled. They always had the fountain and the slushy machine going once in a great while when they have to redo the slushy coffee machines are always clean. Everything is perfect dinner and they got the greatest donuts in town. they got the greatest cookies in town. Greatest brownies in town. Oh yeah popcorn too. Every Wesco to this one is the best with the popcorn. Don't know the secret don't wanna know the secret but it's perfect so give them some love and go buy some donuts, the apple cider donuts, one of the managers in the face.

It's actually Boon Country Store. GPS doesn't like the address of Haskins Rd. When we called, the lady told us to look for 34 Rd. Easy to follow the signs to Boon from 115 just outside of Cadillac. Other than your typical camping and hunting convenience items, food and drinks this place also sells cheese. Lots and lots of cheese. Be sure to sample from more than 20 cheeses especially their sharp and extra sharp Colby! Chocolate cheese? They have it. Spicy cheese? They have it. Smokey cheese, herb cheese, mushroom cheeses? They have those, too.

I'm not giving it any lower then 2 stars because it's close by where I live and for others to. But the cooler don't feel cold where all the drinks sit. Bathrooms need to be clean a little better. When you walk in there you can smell the oil and gas. I get it's a gas station but any other ones you can't smell that. I have been going to this Speedway for years. But they need to fix or keep the slushy and fountain machine working all the time instead of broken a lot. And have the hot rollers go longer pass 5pm other then that great place. Also keep it a little cleaner please.

They are a great reason to stop to fill up on gas... even if you don't really need to do so.
