Visitor & Driver Tips

Winchester Road experiences elevated traffic volumes during weekday afternoon rush hours and peak weekend shopping periods; motorists entering from the west are encouraged to anticipate lane changes early. While parking is complimentary for on-site patrons, pay close attention to posted business signage to avoid designated employee stalls or restrictions on unpermitted overnight stays. During warm Inland Empire summer days, choosing stalls near perimeter landscape trees or placing a reflective sunshade in your windshield can help keep your vehicle interior cooler while you shop.
