Visitor & Driver Tips

Standard automotive and short-term patron parking for the convenience market is complimentary. For commercial operators or RV campers planning an extended overnight rest, verify designated parking zones and check in with the plaza desk upon arrival. When approaching via I-81, use Exit 98 for the most direct, low-stress route into the plaza. Because Cleburne Boulevard carries consistent commercial and local commuter traffic, make use of turn-signal warnings early when slowing down to enter the property. Peak truck parking occupancy typically occurs between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM on weeknights, so drivers hauling freight or towing large travel trailers should plan an early evening arrival to secure ideal staging spots.
