Been great to deal with thus far. Their products seem to be good quality. I've been there a few times now. With a 2+hr round trip, I can't go as frequently, thus our trips are rather expensive. 😂

Response from owner:

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience with us! We're delighted you enjoyed our products despite the long journey. We're here to make each visit worthwhile and look forward to welcoming you back. Safe travels on your next trip! 😊

One of the better shops I've been to. Staff is always friendly, knowledgeable. I'm not a huge tipper but the staff is Grade A and got a tip out of me. Asked about 510 carts, staff member replied with "brother you are in a dispensary, we got you." 🤣 Didn't catch the staff members name but kudos bro that was a great reply. Down to business, a wide selection, prices that are pretty on par for the area. Friendly staff, very clean store. They only take cash but do have an ATM on site if need. 10/10 of you are looking for some pain relief, or some "fun" to take the edge off I'd highly recommend stopping here. They even have a drive up!

Response from owner:

We're overjoyed to hear such kind words about our shop, Patrick! 😊 It's fantastic to know our team left such a positive impression. We're here to help make every visit enjoyable. Can't wait to welcome you back on your next visit for more "fun!"

So happy with the service as the product here. Google leads to a road that is incorrect. Just stay on the highway til the casino and it will be across the road from the entrance.

Thanks so much for the feedback! We are glad you loved the service and product. We appreciate the note on directions, too.
