Chevron

This is always our last stop before heading back to California. There are a ton of pumps and snacks but the bathrooms are NASTY so use them only if you absolutely need to.

Right off the freeway. Lots of pumps equals no waiting time to get gas. They even have a good size mini mart for little nick nacks.

I like this old timey aesthetic they tried to put onto the gas station to blend in with the rest of the area. Problem is it’s so much newer it still sticks out. The way into here with Cabela’s nearby is maybe one of the worst feats of traffic engineering flow I’ve ever seen. Even with very few people it’s a pain in the ass to navigate. The station itself has a huge firezone with tons of cones to tell you to not park there. With so much land here why not just build a separate area instead of including it in the structure then not letting anyone go near it? At least the gas kiosks are standard, maybe one of the few intuitive things here.

«Fantastic holiday get away at Boomtown!»
I am writing this review on Boomtown regarding a recent stay over the New Year holiday. This was my first time staying at Boomtown and I was very impressed with the room we had. We had a Grand Suite and it was Beautiful. I enjoyed my stay so much. I would highly recommend this hotel to my friends, family and colleagues. The staff at Boomtown makes your stay the best. All the staff are very friendly and very accommodating.
During my stay at Boomtown I attended a concert Cherry Popping Daddy’s, which was outstanding. I enjoyed a wonderful New Year’s Eve party with a wonderful dinner and dancing. I also enjoyed a cocktail party with wonderful appetizers and socializing with the new owner of Boomtown Mr. Dilullio which is an amazing person. He is very kind and a down to earth person what a pleasure to get to know such a nice man. I also enjoyed talking with friends I have made over the years. What a great experience! If you want to get away and enjoy a great time you should really give Boomtown a try. I know that you will have the best time ever!

Pretty clean gas station. Usually gas stations are small but this gas station is a little more spacious. The only down fall was that the cashier guy looked like he hated me or he hated his job. I don’t know.

It’s a Chevron Gas Station.
It’s called Boomtown Chevron. (How do you like the sound of that?)
Chevron has Techron.
It’s a pit stop whether you’re coming or going in or out of Reno.
It has lots of gas pumps.
Nice clean restrooms.
You can stock up on supplies before hitting the road.
It has a car wash.
You have a great view of the mountains.
Gas is always cheaper here compared to California.
There’s no homeless people begging for money or asking you to wipe your windshield.
It’s called BOOMTOWN Chevron.

Clean restrooms, huge store with lots of selection, and plenty of pumps and parking. Here is my plan every time I stop:
Gas up, use the restrooms, and then head over to Cabela’s (next door).
Spend 2 hours exploring Cabela’s (check out their website to see how great this store is),
Head over to the Boomtown Casino and grab lunch or a quick bite. The new owners are pouring a lot of money into this property and it shows. Play some machines, try out the Fun Center, grab some Peet’s Coffee.
This is a great stop along Interstate 80!

This is a pretty convenient place to stop for gas. Especially if you also want to have some fun! Cabela’s is right here, plus, the Boomtown Casino/​Hotel.
This Chevron is big! The road to access it loops around a little bit but the signs make it easy to get on and off the freeway, or over to the other businesses. The store inside is a typical Chevron.
The have a car wash which did a pretty good job on our car earlier this month (9÷2÷12). After a week at Burning Man, we had a lot of dust on the vehicle. I actually was finding it unsafe to drive so we stopped to fill the tank and go through the touchless wash on our way home. It did an okay job. As best as could be expected without adding some vinegar to the water because of the alkaline dust.
Gas was $ 4.219/G — 15.9 gallons plus a $ 9.00 wash (the best one they had), means it was almost $ 80 to stop here. Wish they’d let us go through the Super Wash twice for that price. Maybe they would’ve if we’d asked???

I usually stop at this Chevron for a last fill up on the way back home from Reno. This gas station is huge and there is always a pump available.
The store has the usual drinks, snacks, candy and. most importantly, clean bathrooms.

On the way back home I filled up here at Chevron right off of Boomtown’s exit. This location is pretty big! There’s plenty of wide open space for folks with RV’s, trailers and large vehicles to pull right in. Also plenty of parking. Unleaded gas was at 2.999 per gallon. I guess that was the going ripoff rate.
There’s a store that carried everything from ice cream to souvenirs. Of course, I needed my fix in preparation for the snowy weather up ahead. So we grabbed some chips, polish sausages, candy bars and sodas to go.
Cheerful golden girls manned the counters and took care of their customers with a class act.
The restrooms are located inside the store. To my surprise the men’s restroom was clean! Not the usual dilapidated, dim, wet floor, no hot water, out of soap, out of paper towels and «call this number for a good time …» on the walls.
Don’t get me wrong though. I’m no fan of any particular gas station besides the ones that sport the lowest prices and close to home for convenience sake.
Taken all things into consideration, when in Reno, Boomtown Chevron is now a sure stop for me…

Clean restrooms and decently priced gas.
My only gripe is the lame set up where you literally have to drive in circles just to get into the damn station or get out of it. Were the engineers smoking some good stuff when they designed the roads here?
