Sprague’s Super Service Station is one of the best-preserved gas stations along Illinois’ Route 66. Built in the early 1930s, its Tudor-style architecture stands out immediately, offering a glimpse into the golden age of roadside service. The station originally featured a café, garage, and living quarters, serving travelers with a full suite of amenities. Today, it’s restored and maintained by the community, with volunteers welcoming visitors and sharing stories from the station’s early days. The structure and its details make for fantastic photos, but the real charm is in imagining life on the Mother Road during its heyday. Stopping here is like stepping into a living museum that captures the spirit of classic American road trips.
