Went through the automatic touch free wash, as I have a large truck and the clearance was highest on that automatic. While in the parking lot I measured the highest point on my truck - 7’4”. The clearance on the wash says 7’8”. When the bar turned around at the back of the truck I heard it contact my bed cap - so definitely not as much clearance as advertised…
Truck wasn’t very dirty to begin with, a little mud spatter from driving in a construction zone or something, and some dirty rain spots from recent storms. The most basic wash is $10 which didn’t include drying - unbelievable.
My truck looked just as bad as when I went in. It either didn’t get “spot free” rinse water, or worse, it literally just didn’t clean the truck. Either way, I’ll find a different place to wash from now on. I was really excited to find somewhere that my tall truck fit, but really disappointed with the result.
Also, took the dogs a couple months for a good bath, and they smelled like recycled wash water for about 2 weeks. Wouldn’t recommend.

I never like leaving bad reviews but that dog wash was TERRIBLE. I spent $12 to be trapped in a hot box with my dog. The water pressure was so bad, I couldn’t even wash my dogs hair off my hand, let alone clean him off at all. I’m literally having to take him somewhere else to actually wash him

Just took two of my large dogs here for the dog wash. The area was nice and clean and I like that there are two washing stations in case someone else is already there. They are indivual spaces so you dont have to worry about your dogs interacting with other dogs. It was sooo easy. It's $12 for 12 minutes. I just used my debit card but I noticed they do take cash as well but only $5, $10s and $20's and give no change back. So just a heads up on that.
The water stayed a very nice and warm temperature the whole time. There is a vacuum and a dryer as well. The dryer will blow colder air obviously so it depends on if your dog is sensitive to that or not, or if the weather is nice you can just take your dogs around for a walk to dry them off.
There is oatmeal shampoo, conditioner, flea and tick, and deodorizer. But make sure to bring your own towels if needed(:
Overall I'm super happy that this was added and so close to me too!

I real disappointment. The touchless car wash doesn’t work very well. And the vacuum suction is poor.

This car wash is SO much better now that it's under new ownership. Every time I've gone the credit card readers have worked great, and the equipment works like a dream.
Kind of unfair that they received a 1 star review from somebody who didn't understand how credit card authorizations work. They authorize $15, but that's normal. Gas stations do it, and so does every other car wash.
Anyway, I'm glad someone came in and fixed this place!
