Call me biased (because I rent office space from them) but I think that Nail's Convenience Store is…read morethe best in Lake Martin. The title of this business is Nail's Mini Storage, that's because they also rent out climate controlled and non-climate controlled storage at the same spot. They also rent commercial office space, where I have my office. The convenience store is one of the newest in the area, so it is clean, well lit, and bright. David does a great job of keeping the parking lot and surrounding area looking very nice. His gas prices are good, and the selection inside is very good for a C store. It's really like a mini grocery store. Plus (being near Lake Martin) it's nice that they have some boating and fishing supplies. He also has his own ice maker, so he never runs out, which is a feat on busy summer days like the 4th of July. Their coffee is consistently good, and service is always friendly. You won't regret visiting Nail's.

Per my usual methodology, four stars is relative. If this convenience store was situated among…read moreseveral other options, I'd rate it three stars, maybe 3.5 stars. But it isn't...it is an oasis in the middle of nowhere, so it's an easy four. You'll probably find what you need here, if your needs aren't complicated or obscure. During our week at a cabin at Lake Martin, I made runs to D&S to get butter, eggs, milk, beer, salsa, aloe (for sunburned kids), and quite a few other items. Surprisingly good beer selection, with several local (Alabama) craft breweries represented. There's a hot deli that offers burgers, wings, and pizza. As I said, convenient options are non-existent, so it gets busy during lunch and dinner. Gas pump island is startlingly close to the front door, so have some situational awareness, lest you get run over or run over someone.

So, today I came to the Stillwaters area from out of town to help my aged father through knee…read morereplacement surgery. At 8pm, I became hungry for supper. I didn't want to drive Hwy 49 ALL the way back to Hwy 280, and when I saw the neon OPEN sign in the window at Store 34. I pulled in - I knew they had pizza, and I was happy to support a local business. I parked, walked to the door, and tried to open it - but it was locked. "That sucks," I thought, "I guess she forgot to turn off the sign." I returned to my car. 2 doors down, I saw a woman exit the Lake Martin Pizza Co. holding a cardboard box. "Terrific! I can support another local business," I thought. I looked at the door and saw that on Wednesdays they're open until 9pm - great! Since it was only 8:22 pm, I wasn't coming in at the last minute! I walked in and was told by the smiling young lady at the counter "We closed at 8:00 - sorry!" On my way out, I looked at the hours on the door - yep - open till 9:00. So, I drove all the way out Hwy 49 to 280 and crossed it to the Subway at 17957 Highway 280 Ste C. I walked in, and I was greeted warmly by the person working the counter. He custom-made my sandwich, I paid a fair price, and I drove all the way back to Stillwaters. When I passed Store 34 and Lake Martin Pizza company, they both looked visibly closed from Hwy 49. It was 8:41 pm. So - among these three establishments, I recommend the Subway. They do what they promise. I like to support local businesses - but I also like a good meal after a long day. Thank you, Subway!!

Right out of the gate let's make one thing very clear...you've heard of a dive when referencing a bar or restaurant, well this is the convenience store equivalent of that. More stuff than what you'll find at a normal convenience store, but nothing like what you'll find at like a Walmart or places like that. They do have some staples, I'm guessing because they are in the middle of nowhere and then a few miles beyond ... so they make it so the folks that are in the area don't have to drive forever (plus a little more) to get to a n actual grocery store. Now, where they excel is in oddities. The one that stood out to me - Peach Mango Angry Orchard .... until seeing it here, didn't even know it existed. Just one example of the different stuff you'll find here. Oh, did I say they also have a full service food area - kind of like a publix - fried chicken and all the fixin's. If you're in the area stop off and check these guys our, well worth the visit.

We had just filled up and were good on road snacks, but we still swung by and of course found something to get. This location is a tad smaller than other locations, especially in the gas pump area Still large compared to your standard stores, but smaller compared to other Buc-ees locations. We got to experience the ole "brisket on the board" as soon as we walked in, and of course, we decided to scoop up a few sammies to eat when we reached out hotel. It was the perfect welcome snack for us! Outside of the brisket, we went ahead and scooped up hotel room snacks and drinks. We planned on doing that at a store near the hotel, but when in Rome... Inside to outside was well kept and clean, and of course the service was stellar! Overall, solid Buc-ees location!
