Every time I have stopped here to charge, there are always spaces available and all stalls are working! Great location as there is shopping and dining in the same plaza!

This is a fine supercharger and there is a lot of commercial infrastructure and plenty of shops around, but it’s next to the dumpsters behind a Panera bread… just pretty weird placement overall and not at all nice feeling. It’s also oddly close to a main cross road, making it hard to walk around safely. Chargers…

8 stalls in a convenient place. Lots of food and shopping around. Barely any wait time.

Busy location with no open stalls at the moment, but it is clean, feel safe, and between the Cabela's and a Panera bread there is plenty to do.

One of the busiest US superchargers I’ve been to. But everyone is patient and wait for their turn instead of cutting in as one leaves.

This is a fine supercharger and there is a lot of commercial infrastructure and plenty of shops around, but it’s next to the dumpsters behind a Panera bread… just pretty weird placement overall and not at all nice feeling. It’s also oddly close to a main cross road, making it hard to walk around safely. Chargers are in decent shape though. Not too busy on a weekday afternoon but mileage may vary there.
