Hundreds of parking spaces and no such thing as a reservation. Commercial buses out of Phoenix use it for dental and med runs. Buses and RVs cost more to park. Ahh yes. Thanks!

The land north of the border crossing is the Quechan Indian reservation. They operate the large parking lot at the border and have a hotel/casino at the I-8 exit.

bobsallyh Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 It is suppose to re-open Monday June 1. But I sure would check first! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really don't know more but if I hear more will report. You can still park north along the shoulder of the road and walk, long, hot walk. There's no way that the shoulder parking along the road would hold the hundreds of vehicles that use the pay parking lot. It might be OK at this time of year when the snowbirds are gone, but certainly not during the winter. Hopefully, it will open again before the winter season starts!

bobsallyh Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Linda, it is supposed to reopen Monday. Why they never posted signage at the lot ceases to amaze me. They evidently have taken a page from many other Yuma area business's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We normally stay at the Pilot Knob LTVA just west of there and go across the border at least once or twice during the season, so use that lot each time we go. What with the virus, I'm not sure we'll be making the trip to Algodones this coming winter season, assuming we even head south (yet to be determined).

bobsallyh Posted May 31, 2020 Report Share Posted May 31, 2020 Well not surprising, the parking lot is closed until 6-11. https://www.quechantribe.com/article/notice-andrade-parking-lot-temporary-closure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
