Need a RV-friendly gas station on Hwy 101 (CA), between Willits and Eureka

Anyone familiar with California's Highway 101 between Willits, CA and Eureka CA? I'm looking for an RV-friendly gas station for our 36' Class A. We're heading up that way and my last fill up wll be in Williams, CA at a Love's. Unfortunately, everything that I've looked at on Google maps looks very UN-RV friendly! Help please?

There is a station on the North end of town but it is on the wrong side of the divided streets. You would have to go North, turn around and enter Eureka from the North.

Jeaneene,
If by RV friendly you mean without any bump or dip to access the station
I suggest Valley Pacific petroleum ( previously called Renner. ) at the cooks valley location. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Re...g%2F11f4_6flkp
It has a clean approach and plenty of room. Their is also a Patriot station right their but I haven't used that.so I can't say.
Good luck.

Thank you! I'll make note of that as well

If you can make it to Ukiah, about 15-20 mins south of Willits there are several decent Stations. Since it appears that you'll be traveling from Williams CA, I'll assume you'll be taking Hwy 20 around Clearlake to get to 101?

The North State Street exit has Jensen's Truck Stop on the right of the off ramp. I get fuel here a lot. Plenty of room for a 36 footer.

Ukiah also has a Costco at the south side of town by the Airport but I don't believe they have Diesel.

Hope this help,

Nem

The Ukiah Costco doesn't have diesel. We're there all the time.

I was going to recommend something similar. Cloverdale and Hopland also have a few choices, but avoid the Renner in Cloverdale as it has a bad approach for RVs. Of course, this also depends on how you go around Lake County you would bypass Cloverdale and Ukiah altogether.

Its a twisty drive from Williams to 101! Taake care.
