So when we had to do an emergency potty break both my husband and I where worried. But my fears where instantly calm when my one year old daughter and I walked in. The man behind the counter greeted us warmly the isles where wide enough for my little girl could toddle through. But the best part was the bathroom. They were spotless and I mean spotless. No pee pee stains here people, no vomit smell, and not even a hit of stank. As a parent of two kids, little things like that can make your day. If your traveling to Reno make your way this to this rest stop. You won't be disappointed.

The Mexican place has limited hours. I haven't tried it yet, but when I do, I will write a review. The convenience store and the gas is open 24 hours. There is a post office here, but there is no counter service. It's primarily. P.O. Box and mail pick up by local residents. They do have a 24 hour mail drop, with pick up in the early morning. The convenience store is nice. It's clean, and the people are friendly. I like the decorations in the store. It has your usual. Beer, wine, food, snack, snacks, sundries, and it also has a small hardware section, which a good amount is winter gear. It has a small but nice souvenir section as well. Prices are pretty typical on some items, and then on others, they are a bit higher. I got an amazing beef jerky, and the price was reasonable for what I got They do sell chains in the winter time, but believe me, you are going to pay for them. There's plenty of parking, including truck and RV parking. There's also a popular snow park in the winter time. The elephant in the room, is, of course, the gas prices. You are pretty much in the middle of nowhere, with only a few gas stations in the immediate area, so you are definitely going to pay for gas. The best thing to do is fill up in Sacramento, Auburn, or Reno. The gas in Colfax and Truckee is a bit higher, but still well below what they charge here. I like this store. I will be back. Thank you.

Well when buying gas at regular stations most pumps ask for a zip code which I obviously don't have, so I have to go into the shop, get my card preauthorised for say $100 fill up then return to the shop for the difference to be refunded. Hassle. Much easier to give a friendly chap cash and have a chat as he fills the tank.

Great little gas station and mini mart…read more We were on our way to Hell Hole Reservoir. Stopped here to use the bathroom because I'm particular about where I pee. I'm not one to just pull over to the side of the road and pee in the bushes. I don't like to pee outside. I don't even pee in the ocean. I'm particular where I pee. This place is way up in the mountains, and as it turned out, exactly where you need a bathroom to be if you had multiple cups of coffee before you left Sacramento, as I had done. So happy to discover this gas station does have a public restroom. It's in a small building separate from the mini mart. It was clean and tidy, qualities we all appreciate in a public restroom. After taking care of business and washing my hands I popped into the Mini Mart to spend some money. I didn't actually need anything, I had snacks in the car. But when I stop at a little mom and pop operation like this I always try to spend some cash. I want this place to still be in business next time I'm passing through. The Mini Mart has mad snacks! Including many of my favorites, like Chili Cheese Fritos, Chicharrones, Trail Mix, Chex Mix and Pretzels. They had about ten or fifteen different kinds of Sunflower Seeds. Some weird ass flavored ones too. For example: Taco Supreme flavor, Zesty Ranch flavor, Dill Pickle favor, Jacked Pepper flavor, Takis Fuego Flavor, and BBQ flavor. For a hot minute I considered trying one of those bizarro flavors. I eventually decided to just get a bag of regular old David Original Jumbo seeds. My same old, same old. Maybe someday I'll try one of those exotic flavors. But probably not. Oh, and I love that the self service soda fountain featured Pepsi products, Love me a Pepsi with my Sunflower Seeds. In fact, there's a veritable plethora of drink options in this Mini Mart. In addition to the self serve soda fountain, there's also a slushie-type machine with two flavors (red and blue). They even have one of those push button automated Espresso machines. The Mini Mart is stocked to serve the local community as well as travellers passing through. Shelves were stocked with everything from pet food to BBQ supplies. You need Folgers Coffee, French's Mustard, Del Monte Ketchup? Top Ramen, Campbell's Soup, Kraft Macaroni and Cheese? Toilet Paper, Motor Oil, Insect Repellant? You need a Gas Can? You can find it all here at the Forresthill Valero Mini Mart. And I was impressed that the price of gas here wasn't that much higher than it was in Sacramento. So, yeah, I'm a big fan of Foresthill Valero. I especially appreciate that they provide a public restroom. I was happy show my appreciation by spending a few bucks Mikey C says: Forresthill Valero, 5 Stars all damn day!

Some coffee would be good to for the rest of my drive. Lucky I don't need gas, as the prices here are way high, but that's to be expected at these remote locations along a freeway and especially cause it a Chevron station. Being a Chevron station you can expect clean restrooms and a store with all the things you might need for the road trip. Coke or coffee and Funyons! Easy off and back on the freeway and off we go!

Btw I do this to show legit reviews and so people know prices!) This Shell station is in Penn Valley and off of highway 20. Although the gas is a bit expensive it is one of the few gas stations if you are heading towards Yuba City. I like that there is a convenience store AND a Taco Bell inside ( with a drive thru as well ). There is no seating inside if you order Taco Bell within the store. The bathroom was clean as well as the store. They have some hot prepared food as well a ton of snacks. It is always busy....probably because of Taco Bell in Penn Valley!lol! It's a nice clean stop on your travels!

Quality/Quantity - This is our emergency gas station…read more Whenever there is bad/dangerous weather and/or accidents on the summit, we make sure to have a full tank of gas before going up. There was a snow storm yesterday and 10 degree weather all morning made plowing almost impossible. And too many drivers that do NOT have experience driving on the snow. Let alone the wrong type of vehicles. Another reason why I have a big truck! Atmosphere - Easy in and out. 4 double sided pumps. Typically easy in and out. But not on storm days as everyone is gassing up and using the last chance bathrooms here. So on days like this, be prepared to wait. Remodeled bathrooms, thanks. In the past, they were "out house" quality bathrooms. Only use it if you really need it, lol. Service - Self service. Well now you need a key for the bathrooms. And lastly they only give you access to one of the two bathrooms. Price - Expensive, but worth it for safety. Nothing worse than running out of gas in a snow storm. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1980. 1980 - Spun off of Coastal States Gas Corporation. You have too long of a buy/sell history for me to list.

If that's too much work to walk 10 feet to close a door, fix your door. For customers, don't bother going here unless you want to receive poor service. There are 3 other gas stations on this exit that are in better condition, where you will receive better service, and likely better valued fuel pricing.
