Water Fill up - Flying J?

We are heading down to Florida soon and since my trailer is winterized, I don't want to put water in the tank until we get further south.

We are traveling I-77 to I-26 to I-95. We want to stop somewhere overnight around the I-26/I-95 merge. Maybe an hour south of there.

We are thinking of (for the first time ever) staying overnight at a Flying J or Cracker Barrel. We've never done this before. Where can I fill up say 10-15 gallons of potable water? Just enough to flush the toilet and brush our teeth. My wife would probably appreciate a quick shower in the morning too. I'm not concerned about dumping, as we can do that once we arrive at our destination in Florida the next day.

I've tried to Google view the Flying J at St. George. They have RV lanes, and I see water off to one side, but I'm guessing that is for the dumping station? Do they have separate potable water?

Also, any recommendations on where to stay on I-95 in SC or GA beside Cracker Barrel or Flying J?

Concerns over freezing is my biggest issue.

Most Flying Js have potable water in the RV lanes, which also includes a dump station ($10...$7.50 with GS card).

We've stayed at FJ's all around the country and have never had a problem.

Safe Travels!

As an added note, get the Pilot/Flying J app and it will tell you what amenities are available at the FJ's as well as the fuel prices.

Most Flying J's have water and dump at the RV lanes. If you get a Flying J card, you get 8 cents a gallon off diesel and maybe 5 off gas. The RV lanes make it nice to fill up and easier to get in and out. I'm not sure if you have to pay for water. And be sure to move after filling up. Some of the pumps have stickers asking you to move forward after filling.

Cannot help you any w/ your specific question, but what about just buying or taking along 5-10 gallons of water in gallons jugs? Can use them still for flushing toilet, brushing teeth and can warm it in pot and take a sponge bath.
