Half of the spaces were closed. It is not worth the traffic and parking price to go to this anymore.
Lots of the same stuff over and over and over. Huge place but not much variety. Note: Do NOT eat from back of the taco truck! A novelty the first time. Boring and a waste after that.
Was not expecting what I found here; huge marketplace with anything you could think of! Very diverse with all kinds of goods and food! Can easily spend the day walking through and taking everything in.
This place was right down our alley as we like to find a good bargain. We spent all day there and had a great time. Be sure to wear some good walking shoes as you have to walk the 160 acres. This is the perfect place to find bargains of all types. There is everything from sunglasses,shirts, jeans, shoes all the way to 4 wheelers. We walked around for the day and enjoyed the food trucks and sipped on frozen margaritas! There was also a BEER cart going around selling beer on tap. Great for kids and adults. Make sure to bring CASH!
fun place. very diverse. we bought pet tags, jewelry, purses, clothing, a stun gun, mangoes, t shirts, car accessories.... cant remember it all! there were even a few carnival rides! and way more food concession than your average turkey leg and funnel cake. hubby totally enjoyed the tacos and fruity Mexican drinks that were offered! we were going to spend a day there and went back the next day for a few hours. cost 3 bucks to park, no admission. be sure to wear sunscreen or bring an umbrella! we had a great time looking at all the different stuff! there were auto services on the exit parking lot ...we got a great deal on window tint on our car as we were leaving! and bought oranges too.
you can find anything you want here and have fun doing it . this is one of the best flea markets i have ever been to and i travel a lot and always try to see the market wherever i go
This place was absolutely amazing and right down our alley. I wish I could've spent all day there but ran out of time. This is the perfect place to find bargains of all types. There is everything from vendor's selling sunglasses and shirts and jeans and shoes to the garage sale style with people bringing in all the goodies they have. No need to do extreme couponing because most vendors here get everything wholesale and sell it at just above that price so it's still cheaper than if you went to the store with a coupon! Great for kids and adults. Have great options for food from turkey legs, authentic Mexican, and general American food! Make sure to bring CASH!
The diversity of goods is outstanding at Traders Village in Arlington. Take the time to go through the flea market parts. You can usually "barter" a better price. Lots of food and entertainment for the kids. They have small ride like at the fair. Need longer hours to check it ALL out..
This place seems to go on for miles. Parking is not free - $3/car. There are fair style rides there too for the kids. ATMs on site, which is convenient. Alcohol is sold on site too - not sure how I feel about that.Vendors are okay - there is a decent variety across the place, but you begin to see the same items over and over again. I really didn't see much that I couldn't live without. It's worth the trip, but be prepared for A LOT of walking.We did buy a painting, made while we watched by an artist set up near the center who created it on canvas using spray paints and some common household items like plastic bags, papers, can lids, etc. He was INCREDIBLE! That was the best buy of the day.
Came for a weekend with school aged kids. Typical RV park...with more shade trees than most. Friendly, helpful front desk clerk. Site was not very shady, which I had requested...neighboring vacant spot was very shady...I should have asked to move before setting up, so that's on me...but wish clerk had been more familiar. Pool is clean and inviting. Plenty of lounge chairs and a covered area for shade. Had a power outage and brief water outage and maintenance was there almost immediately. Flea market is almost too large to enjoy in a day. Needed a map, but there were no paper maps. I enjoyed poking around and kids bought cheap trinkets, but honestly, no real steals to be had. Backpacks were on our list and walmart had better prices! Be sure to haggle. Still, the festival atmosphere was fun, and the kids loved the carnival rides which were reasonably priced at $9 for a wrist band. The back end of the trade area was truly like a mercado in Mexico....including the food, music and patrons. Enjoyed a mango on a stick cut like a flower and heard lots of good mariachi music. Overall a fun weekend...met expectations.
