I love the touchless wash. However, it doesn't clean the undercarriage very well.

Place is a little run down, but the prices are reasonable in the do it yourself stalls, and the water pressure seems pretty good.

Drive through car wash is terrible. Paid all that money for absolutely nothing. Didn't even clean my ride properly..

I strongly believe with the amount of money that the self car washes take in that they should be able to upgrade their equipment! Or at least replace brushes that are disgustingly dirty!

Love the place you have a closed in carport to wash your car so you dont get winded or anyone wet with the mist ....you can use quarters or bills or 💳..very convenient..

Good bays, but not all vacuum machines work. Check before you try to put your money in. Washing was as expected for a spray wand. Ok

Put credit card in to wash car in the 3rd bay from the left , soap came out but then when I kept trying to use the wax or rinse all I would get was soap and tire cleaner. Ended up going to another bay just to rinse my car!!!!! Wasted money down the drain.

Always go here used to love it n all but I went 2 times within two weeks apart the first visit the wax smell gd thing didn't work like it had all the other times we going n btw my favorite part is watching the colors n letting my vents in car all open that way I can smell the smell it gives lol n then two days Ago soap was coming out and the left side on that side nothing wasn't coming out n the car afterwards had soap still all over our car that is the only reason I did not. Make the review a 5 star 😭👌

I lIve near by so it is nice to have a car wash close. Nothing special but the automatic wash is reasonably priced and it does a good job. Plenty of manual wash bays and the place is always clean.

Good water pressure. I found out after finishing washing my high roof Sprinter van that they have a wash station on the side of the building to accommodate large vehicles. Excellent idea!

Put $4 in the truck wash on the end and nothing came out. No water, no soap, no anything. Called the number and it transferred to a random person that has no association with the car wash. Avoid this place. Scam I will consider changing my review if the owners contact me. Otherwise, avoid this place

I used to go there a few years ago. Decided to go and wash my truck. Don't normally use the brush, but it was needed. The soap was coming out near the hose and was adjacent to the bruch. On top of that, it was spitting out up from the hose connected to the holer where it swings around. Needless to say, I had soap all over me and made it hard to scrub my truck. Boy was that a waste of some of my money. Don't think I'll go back again. Nope!!!!

I went here 7/26, paid $13 for the auto car wash in the center. for $13 I expected the car to get clean. All it did was spray water and dry the car, no cleaning whatsoever. I got home and was pumped to see the outcome and was extremely disappointed to see so much dirt still lingering. I was able to rub my finger to get the dirt off. There are no cleaning tools used at the car wash other than pressure.

*UPDATE: 02/21/2025 - Updating my review: I was contacted via text later in the evening, and they apologized for the confusion. They explained, "The processing company places a $13 hold on all car washes until the actual amount clears. If you check back, the correct charge should be reflected now." It would have been helpful if this information was posted where payments are made. Eventually, the remaining hold was refunded to my card. Moving forward, I’ll just use cash to avoid any issues. 02/04/2025 - Not happy that I was overcharged by $5 for the automatic car wash. I selected the $7 button for a quick basic wash as I was on a time crunch. I didn't realize until I came home and looked that I was charged as much as I was. I went back to look for the phone number to this place and called. Left a message. No call back as of yet. I will be disputing this charge.
