AI Overview

The station has eight chargers with short cables, requiring you to position your vehicle close to the connector. It is located at a Kwik Star convenience store off the interstate. Some drivers report occasional difficulty with the Magic Dock connector disengaging after charging; if this occurs, trying a firmer push on the connector or using your own adapter may help. The chargers are reliable and rarely have long waits despite frequently being at capacity.

    This was faster charging than the ChargePoint chargers across the road,.where we've stopped multiple times. HUGE THANKS to Ford for supplying the adaptor for our Mustang Mach e. 'Worked like a charm.

    Has the CCS built into the charge station. Every time I stop here which is probably once a week or two, there is a space and it works the first time. 2025 MachE Charges up to 150KW on MachE

    Worked as usual for Tesla, no wait for a charger, cheap charging. Unfortunately no trailer pull though space, short cords, and only 150kW charging for GM vehicles instead of 350kW

    We always stop here on our way up north. Reliable chargers that charge quickly. Never had any issues with the chargers slowing down if the stalls are full. They're almost always full. We started in the single digits and got a full charge in 25 minutes. Conveniently located at the Kwik Star so you can get snacks or take a bathroom break. There's also a Theisen's if you want to grab some treats for your dog, nearby.
