2pm, 6-3-22. ...get gas and go inside for coffee. There's 2 cash registers and 4 kids* behind the counter. (*When I say kids, I mean kids. None of them looked older than 15 or 16.) . BOTH registers were closed the one surly kid said. They were counting the cash. (Why, I have no idea). They had stacks of bills piled up on the counter as they counted it--pretty sloppy cash management. . Anyway - for 15 minutes they had BOTH registers closed for this exercise. . At one point an adult* (*Adult meaning he appeared to be mid-20's) came over to check on them. He very consciously avoided eye contact with us customers (by now there were 6 or 7 people lined up behind me.) . This cluster went on for about 15 minute. When done I paid and left; never got a thank you or sorry or anything of the sort. What an incompetently run operation. . PS....for the entire week we were in SD this was the only negative experience we had. Overall the folks we dealt with from Sioux Falls to the Black Hills were exceptionally nice, friendly and helpful to out of state tourists.

They open late compare to google working hours, the price is expensive compare to other place around. But the only way they have advertisement "the last gas station before badlands" so we got no choice. Lol But they have huge parking spot for rest for a while and also their porta potty

Stopped on a Saturday morning, Google said it was open. It was closed and an overflowing porta potty was the only option. Was at least able to get gas.

This is a convenient place to stop for gas to or from the Badlands. However, the gas is more expensive and the choices are limited to 87 or 91 octane with both containing up to 10% ethanol.
