Website indicates this swap meet opens at 8 am Saturday morning, even the signs to the entrance of the parking lot say 8. But I’m here at 8:30 Saturday morning hoping to beat the heat, and there’s not a single vendor open or person out...Read More

A note for the owners $2 a person when you park it's too much. Especially when it's slow. There shouldn't be any charge for parking before 5:00 p.m. I watched customers leaving because none of the stores are even open. My suggestion is $5 Max...Read More

OMG! What a waste of gas and time! They charge $2 for parking. We could see few vendors and what appeared to be JUNK. I did not feel safe parking my car there. There were no people there (either customers or vendors), but there...Read More

Sad. Check my previous reviews … I’ve never rated anything one Star…until now. Was charged 2 dollars to enter a junky parking lot to a minuscule selection of unhappy vendors. Left almost right after we parked. Don’t waste your money like me. ...Read More

No longer worth it. All good reviews are from when this was under old management. All the original vendors now sell at other swap meets. Entire aisles are now empty. I remember a few years ago it was shoulder to shoulder now maybe a few...Read More

We were excited about heading to the Swap Meet, we popped in around 2pm and one of the parking attendants told us to come back after 4pm because not much was open. Well, at 4pm not much was open. It felt like going to Mexico,...Read More

This place used to be a fun family friendly atmosphere but now they charge people per person to get in which is kind of ridiculous since it is a flea market so it's not a guarantee you will find anything worth buying. Also, they charge...Read More

Came on a Sunday around 1pm. Just a couple of places open. The food park was open but just about four places open to eat. Still nice for a walk and to eat outdoors.

0 stars. I was a vendor and had security try to bully mewhile I was packing up to leave already because of how dead it was. Over half ships were closed and over half the spaces were empty. Not worth the time, and on top of that the...Read More

Drove down from Phoenix. Website says swap meet is open at 2. NOBODY is here! One vendor told us it’s open but the vendors only come on Fridays and Saturdays. What a disappointing bust. Won’t come back here again. Someone needs to update the website...Read More

Was totally empty at 12:30 Saturday. The gal in the parking booth said most people show up in the evening, even though the hours are 11 am- 11 pm! Don’t bother after reading other reviews they are way over selling this swap meet!

The vendors are really cool and for the most part generous in their pricing. However, after decades of free admission the administration decided to set up toll booths and start charging at the gate. … More

The beauty of this place was that it was accessible to anyone to sell, because it wasn't too expensive, and accessible to buy because it was free to hang out, so the crowds were immense. Now it cost to park, costs to get in, and...Read More

No Idea why they take an entrance fee for a flea market - they want me to spent money and charge me in advance. We turned around. Next time they charge me for entering a department Store...

We went on Saturday, Nov 15 at 1:00 in the afternoon and the place was a ghost town. We paid $2per person to park. We left about ten minutes later. There were maybe 10 vendors selling junk.
