slept one night. no issues. surprisingly quiet

Report Check-In

Spent one night. Staff at the Walmart seemed to hover and stare. Women’s toilets were foul and messy. Loud truck in middle of night woke me. Not the best.

Report Check-In

Arrived around 8pm and found 4 other campers/vans already parked. As mentioned, its not the most level parking lot but we made it work. Hours are 6am-11am!

Report Check-In

Access to RV parking area is no longer accessible as blocked with large cement barriers. We parked to have lunch and had to angle truck/fiver.

Report Check-In

Stayed the night along with countless other vans/campers. Very slanted but does the trick.

Report Check-In

Overnight parking is allowed. I asked three employees and they all said the same thing, which is the "no overnight parking" sign is for part of the lot they now have barricaded and are no longer using. The only stipulations were a one day limit for your stay and to stay out of the employee parking area on the side. The lot isn't very flat so pick your spot carefully.

There are a bunch of no overnight parking signs but there were at least a dozen other overnighters when we pulled up so we gave it a chance and didn’t have any problems 👍🏻 The entire parking lot is on a slope tho

There are “no overnight parking” signs around this lot so stay at your own risk. I spent one night by the garden center unbothered, a few other overnighters shared the lot. Quite a few grass areas to walk your dog!

Walmart parking lot as described. A little slanted in parts, but no signs posted and the Walmart has recently been updated so I’d call it a nicer Walmart than some. Saw two other vehicles parked overnight with us. No issues. Quiet. Great stay for one night.

has no overnight parking signs now. didn't stay

Report Check-In

I arrived around 6pm and saw seven RV’s/Vans near the Garden Center.
I found the area too unlevel and wanted to cook after shopping, so I went over to the pickup side lot. It was so much more quiet and while it was still unlevel, I felt the slope wasn’t as dramatic as the back end of the main parking area.
Park behind the shipping containers and up against the forest. Just stay away from the nighttime spotlights as their generators are loud.

I did stay here overnight. I didn’t see any “no overnight parking” signs, but I’ll double check now that I’ve already done it. However the Walmart locator website says they do allow overnight parking, which is why I chose it. There are a couple cars and a white van I recognize from last night so I think I wasn’t the only one who stayed here. I did see a cop car around 9 pm, but they didn’t stick around. I was also creeped out at first bc of some guys milling around on their bicycles late at night, but it was ok. I figured they were employees going home. Nice view of the sky!update: Ok, I saw the section marked “no overnight parking” but it’s blocked off anyway, so you just can’t park in that section.

I didn’t stay there tonight but as I pulled in I saw some “no overnight parking” signs. Didn’t want to risk it.
