Loves

Montréal 10 states with Work and I have grown to love loves truck stops. I’m not a trucker but I do stop there a lot of times late at night because I feel safe there are always clean and if you have trash to put out of your car is always available to do so. As though I was not at work this week I just stopped at the love’s on my way to my grandparents. I must say this is the dirtiest nastiest filthiest loves I have ever been at. Just the thought of looking outside and saying every trash can full from from every point this out here to the smears on the glass to the paper towels being out I decided that I would not eat at McDonalds I would go to Chick fil A across the road because if you keep your parking lot looking like that what are you keep your restaurant and store looking like. Granted it’s 9 a.m. I understand you’re busy but the trash is overflowing in the parking lot so that goes to tell me that that’s more than just a couple hours of busies that’s just nasty. I can say I’ll never be back at this love this is more like going to the off road truck stops in the middle of the Arkansas that has nowhere else to compete with. So highly disappointed.

Great for gasoline and people watching. If I recall correctly the Subway employees inside the building too an hour to make a six-​inch sub. Really delayed our damn ETA on the way to Florida! But honestly, who doesn’t want to fill up at a place called Love’s?

Loves very similar to pilot this truck stop is right off 75 and use to be easy to get in and out of. This Emerson exit has exploded and the traffic is crazy. Like the subway option… wish the chick fila was next door

Located in this gas station is Subway. *Buyer Beware * If you order a footlong sub sandwich (with or without a combo) they up-​charge you to a large drink without telling you. I asked the cashier and manager on duty, and both stated anytime a foot long sub is purchased they are instructed to up-​charge the drink. You cannot order a regular size drink with your foot long sub, unless you order a 6 inch sub. Each sub has its own drink size.
The typical Subway signs are posted stating the sub price and how much extra for (combo) chips and drink. However, I was told by the 2 employees they cannot honor those prices advertised.
I contacted Subway about this. They did not respond.
Just make note of this, if going to this location. They are sneakily trying to increase their average transaction and profit margin hoping no one will catch them. Expect a separate extra charge on your receipt, if ordering a footlong with a drink.

If you’re traveling South on I-​75 in Georgia, this Love’s Travel Stop is easy-​off, easy-​on and filled with everything you need in a decent pit stop. Gas is relatively cheap ($ 2.09 for regular unleaded on 1÷8÷15) and there are many food options: McDonald’s; Subway; convenience store snack foods.
However, the restrooms should be better maintained and cleaned. I don’t care how busy a place gets, these areas need to be spotless. Several stalls had missing locks, and it seemed evident the ladies room had not been cleaned for several hours. They do have paper towels, though, which I prefer.
Another nit — I really needed to clean my rear window, but all the cleaning fluid was frozen due to the unseasonably cold weather in Georgia. I wish they’d taken at least one inside overnight or brought out new cleaning fluid as the temps climbed above freezing.

The gentlemen in the stall next to me just cracked open a beer. Can’t really top that. Five stars for this truck stop.
God Bless America!

Decent truck stop. We stopped here to grab some food while driving from Atlanta to Murfreesboro. There is a McDonald’s and a Subway. Gas station gets pretty busy especially with truckers. Not the cleanest place but that can’t be helped based on the amount of traffic that goes through the place.

This is my second time coming here. Traveling from Cincinnati down to Augusta Georgia is a hike, so this is my spot to get gas.
It is ALWAYS packed. Yes you do wait in line to get gas but it goes by quickly. It’s one of the better truck stops I’ve been to.
It is convenient because everything is there. From good selections of snacks, to go hot meals, coffee, drinks, alcohol etc. You can even get lottery.
Bathrooms could be a little cleaner, but they do their best.
There is also a Subway and McDonalds (drive thru available as well) connected next to the convenient store.
Plenty of parking before or after you gas up.
Employees are quick ringing you up and friendly.

I enjoy this location because they offer a 24-​hour Subway and a 24-​hour McDonalds. This location is in Emerson even though it has a Cartersville address for mailing purposes. I previously gave this business a five-​star rating, but have recently experienced a bait-​and-​switch fraud scheme at the tire center. Beware the tire center at this Love’s location. Otherwise, this Love’s is very nice aesthetically and the 24-​hour restaurants are very nice.

I love truck stops! I like going inside and exploring all the interesting and entertaining things for sale. Looking for a leather Nascar jacket? How about camo lingerie for that special lot lizard in your life? Don’t forget the glass case full of crystal horses, hearts and other random dust collectors. Have you seen the chili/​cheese dispenser by the Fritos? You literally push a button and the magical sauce comes out like hot lava. You can put it on hotdogs, hamburgers, chips or even in to your mouth… no judgements! Too bad they don’t sell those machines!
Loves has the cheapest gas for miles; always at least 5 – 10 cents off per gallon than their competition. They have the cleanest restrooms and the staff is always helpful.
Next time you’re up in the sticks, need to fill up and pick up the latest Billy Ray Cyrus CD, stop at Loves!

Being a super commuter from Kennesaw to Calhoun for a year, I eventually bought a Diesel Volkswagen Jetta. I absolutely love my car. The only problem was finding good places that sold Diesel fuel since not all gas stations did so. Luckily, I had a trucker’s commute, therefor plenty of trucker gas stations. Loves is a great station because EVERY SINGLE pump has Diesel as an option. This makes it different than a lot of other gas station where you only have 2 pumps with Diesel. The price for fuel here is also pretty decent. Usually 10 cents cheaper per gallon than what you would find off Barrett Parkway.
Here is the bad stuff about this place. The pump for Diesel is incredibly short. It’s actually really hard to pump fuel in your car because the hose can’t reach your fuel cap. The second thing is that Loves ALWAYS puts a $ 125 hold on your credit card when you fill up. I understand how credit cards work and they want to make sure you can pay before you get gas, but isn’t $ 125 a little steep? I mean some days I only put $ 20 in my car.
The high credit hold per fuel and the short fuel hose really makes me think, «eh, I’ve been to better gas stations.»

This is right off of highway I-​75. Wow! What a busy place! Amazingly, it runs quite smoothly for such internal mayhem. There is a McDonalds and a Subway sandwich shop in this place. Great hats! All the quickie foods and beverages you would ever need.
Fuel was lower here than at my house… and this place is right off the highway! Best place for ice too. Oh! Did I mention that this place has Great Hats, and at good prices? You know, I just walked by the shelf where the hats were on display and, one of those cowboy type straw hats just jumped right off the shelf onto my head. I mean, at that point it was pretty clear that on such a hot sunny day… well you know what I, m talking about. When I got to the lake the first thing my brother mentioned was «my new hat». I told him about the «hat jumping off the shelf» phenomenon (but for some reason he did not believe me). However, he too had purchased a hat from Love’s as well and voiced his satisfaction.
Anyway, I like the layout of this place. Cars and trailers have the parking lot in front of the building, with all the gas pumps. The big rigs have the big wide open areas in the back with the diesel pumps. This gives them the room they need to move around. They have another area to park and rest. The way it is laid out cars and big rigs cannot mix. This keeps the cars from scampering about around these metalic monsters.
There was another section inside the store that sold truck items. I simply ran out of time, therefore, I will have to save that section for another visit. I may have to plan some extra time for browsing since it appears I missed several areas due to time constraints.
This makes for an excellent reason to return and check for a new inventory of hats.
