Something not right?

Description

*Overnight parking/camping is not available at this location.
.....
I stopped at the nearby wild camping place but it seemed a little off so I called this place to ask if I could stay overnight and sure enough the lot behind the pumps is open 24 hours. don't go too far back past the lights or they'll chase you back toward the pumps. Stayed here two nights, parked under the line of palms to the right of the pumps. various rigs pulled in throughout the night so a little noisy but safe and cozy. there's a big farmers market and attractions here that might interest some folks but not me during a pandemic. Grateful just for a safe place to rest for a day. thanks Murray's!

Stopped here hoping to stay but the cashier says they no longer allow it. 😥

Report Check-In

They told us we absolutely cannot park inside their gate, only outside the gate. It's not super level. Fine in a pinch, since the nearest rest area was closed. Welcome to use their bathroom.

Great place for the night. Little noise from the pumps.

Nice big parking in back, friendly people in the store. Okie pies were good (pulled pork and apple pies👍).

Report Check-In

Farm Stand/Fruit Store & 24 hr gas pumps.
I went inside store to ensure overnighting was OK & confirmed with employee who explained where to park. Matches with what others have left here. To clarify, store and store parking lot are to the left of the pumps - no overnighting there. You can park directly behind the gas pumps - large, kind of dusty parking lot is behind the pumps away the gas pump lights or to the right of the pumps along the fence. Don't park in the store lot that has led-lights wrapped around the Palms.
spent one night, arrived @7pm & left next morning @ 8am. we were in a class B van and there was one other travel trailer w/ slide out in further back in the big dusty parking lot.
Felt safe and comfortable, fairly flat. Some traffic noise overnight but nothing kept us awake.
Gas is expensive but has good cash back on Upside, if you use that app.

Report Check-In

Great overnight spot. Clean bathrooms, mostly flat spot just beyond the gas pumps. Checked in with the security guard and he showed me where to park. Gas was the most expensive we have paid in CA $6.69/gal so we put in 10 gallons. We will pick up some fresh fruit and maybe a pie before we depart. Nice and quiet. 2 bars of 5G

Report Check-In
