For starters, this review isn't about the RV park, as it's about the bar and restaurant. But when…read moreI "Yelped" this place, here is where I landed. Star Point Trading Post and RV Park is a friendly outpost, located in Mill City, Nevada along I-80 about a half hour west of Winnemucca. Star has a well-equipped general store, that sells a little of everything when it comes to groceries, beer, liquor along with camping supplies, hardware and automotive supplies. But... that's not all, as there's a fantastic restaurant, that features a full-service bar, for your enjoyment! As you enter, you'll notice the cashier's station is to your immediate left, with the bar and restaurant just beyond. To your right is the general store. The building is evenly divided between the store and the restaurant. I love the giant yellow gumball machine. Dollar bills are stuck to every column in the bar area. The general store has a little bit of everything, as it's the only store for many miles. You name it, they have it, including a deli case, snacks, a few groceries, lots of beer and soft drinks, with a shelf that has a good selection of wine and liquor. The aisle in the center has a great selection of nuts and bolts, and on the other side, there is lots of camping and outdoor products. There are also automotive items, and cleaning supplies. Even though they have a near-monopoly for miles around, the prices are what you'd expect to pay if you were in downtown Winnemucca. The second page of the 7-page menu features "Burgers and Sandwiches." I was tempted to order the "Half Pound Foot Long All Beef Hot Dog," but in the end, I went with the "Half Pound Original Buster Burger." All burgers and sandwiches include cheese and a side, and the menu offers a vast assortment to choose from. To see all seven pages of the menu, From the "Burgers and Sandwiches" section of the menu, I went the "Half Pound Original Buster Burger," which seemed to be the "signature" offering on the lunch menu. All burgers include cheese, so I chose "Pepper Jack," and my side was "Crinkle Fries." When you order a burger, you are treated to a vast array of sides, along with several varieties of cheese, which is included with the price of your order. Side choices include crinkle fries, seasoned curly fries, seasoned Jojo potatoes, onion rings, baked potato, small green salad or cottage cheese. I've never seen a restaurant that offers so many choices of sides! Cheese choices include American, pepper jack or Swiss. Add-ons are available for additional $1.00 each. The burger stated out with a half-pound of ground beef, cooked perfectly medium, just the way I love it. When I placed my order, I didn't mention how I desired my meat to be cooked, but I'm sure Tara could have cooked it any way I wanted. The pepper jack cheese was melted perfectly, and the helping cheese was large. The meat and cheese was set on a large, fresh, lightly buttered and toasted roll. The fresh garnishes of lettuce, onion and tomato were placed on the plate, to be added at my discretion. This is an outstanding for a superior burger, as the 'hot' stays "hot," and the "cold' stays cold. Tara knows her burgers! The "Crinkle Fries," were deep fried to a light golden brown, and lightly salted, which made for perfect fries. Included on the side was a small cup of ranch dressing, which makes for an outstanding dip. I could have asked for ketchup or hot sauce, but I'm happy with ranch! I added the onion, lettuce and tomato, and took a bite into my burger, and was instantly in "burger heaven." The meat was lightly seasoned, juicy and tender, and I could actually taste the pepper jack cheese, which enhanced this amazing burger. The cool garnishes contrasted to the hot meat, cheese and bun, which made for one of the best burgers that I've ever had the pleasure to enjoy for a long time. Chef Tara has talent! As I enjoyed my cheeseburger, a steady stream of locals came in to purchase things in the store, pick up a newspaper, or just to chit-chat. Don knew everybody by name, as Mill City is a small community. My "Original Buster Burger" was simply delicious, the fries were amazing, the beer was cold, and the staff was super friendly. When you're in the mood for great food, and maybe you need to pick up a few supplies, stop by Star Point Trading Post and RV Park, enjoy the food, and say a friendly "hello" to Don and Tara.

We were able to set up the day before the event, camp on the grounds, and drive sports cars through a complicated course of cones. It was a great event, and the size of the course was more than double what we usually race in Reno and what the Boise folks race there. Federal regulations make it increasingly difficult to host autocross events at airports, so we are thankful that Winnemucca allowed us to use their site.
