Large packing lot with RV designated parking. Safe area. The train runs by at night.

Stayed two nights without issue. 35 minutes from Washington DC.

The police were onsite for some kids causing a ruckus in the evening and they did not talk to us about being parked here overnight. There were two other RVs parked with us as well.

Report Check-In

Nice quiet spot except for the 4 trains that went by all by 1 am. Police were parked in the lot on the opposite end of the parking lot when we arrived. We were not disturbed even by the officer patrolling first thing. 1 other camper van parked near us. Slept soundly felt safe.

No overnight parking allowed. Spoke to store employee. Gainesville passed ordinance to prohibit RV overnighters.

Report Check-In

Great place to spend the night! The reason I picked this spot is because It said there was a dump station. There is no longer a dump station or water here. So if that is what you are looking for you should keep going. I would have moved but it was already pretty late.

Report Check-In

No parking signs posted. Asked the customer service and was told that they do not own the lot, the city does, so it is park at own risk. Had no other options so parked here and slept for the night. Nobody bothered me, but it was also raining so that may have helped. There are train tracks by the parking lot, only heard one come by.

Stayed in a truck bed camper for one night

Report Check-In

There is a RV parking and a no overnight sign. Confusing a bit. But the lady inside told us it was ok to sleep overnight.

Report Check-In

We stayed here last night and had no problems. There are signs that say no overnight parking but not in the area of the parking lot that we parked in (far side of the parking lot straight out the front doors). We arrived after the store was closed and were on the road by nine. The store opens at 10 AM on a Sunday but employees were here more than an hour in advance. Plenty of grass to walk a dog on.

NOTE: there is some train tracks right next to the parking lot that we heard two trains go past before we fell asleep but nothing after. Either they stopped coming by or we slept hard but they are pretty loud and it’s something to consider.
