Visitor & Driver Tips

To ensure a smooth visit, peak shopping hours typically occur on weekday late afternoons (4:00 PM to 7:00 PM) and across weekend midday hours. If you are only stopping for curbside pickup, follow the clearly posted signage directing vehicles to the designated Drive Up bays nearest the front entrance. During the winter season, Michigan snow clearing teams frequently pile plowed snow at the outer perimeter edges, which can temporarily reduce available spots at the lot margins; choosing spaces closer to the main thoroughfares generally provides the clearest pavement. Always remember to return carts to the designated corrals to keep neighboring vehicles safe from wind-blown rollaways.
