Visitor & Driver Tips

To ensure a smooth visit, check stall availability and current peak power limits via the Tesla navigation system or the Tesla smartphone app prior to arrival. Non-Tesla EV operators should position their vehicles carefully to reach the charging cable; the far-left stall typically provides the most generous clearance for vehicles with front-side or passenger-side charge ports. If you are towing a trailer or boat, plan to unhitch in the general parking area before occupying a charging bay so you do not block the circulation aisles. Standard parking while actively charging is complimentary, but be sure to unplug and move your car promptly once the charging session concludes to avoid automated idle fees.
