    Frontage beside the gas station
    Rob C.

    Car wash is good but not perfect. They spray and scrub at the back of the car but to the front so usually the back of the car is clean but the front and sides gets missed at times so it remains a little dirty. Wish they scrubbed the front and sides too. So elbow grease to scrub off scum. Free vacuum too if you need. They do offer different levels of car washes at different costs. Self serve where you vacuum and dry yourself or full service where they vacuum and dry door you. Cost are different for the two. Overall, it's not that bad Pro tip - purchase their membership if you think you will get at least 3 washes or more in a month. Otherwise, just pay as you go.

    Signed up for an unlimited wash package and wanted to use it a month before I posted on it. So, I am happy with the package I selected and the process to sign up. I do like the quality of the wash and the vacuums available as well. They also provide microfiber towels you can use to ensure you don't leave with water spots, which is certainly considerate and feels customer satisfaction centered which I appreciate. I like that they spray your car down and tires to make sure everything will be clean when the wash is complete. The staff seem pretty easygoing which makes the process run smoothly. As far as the price point, it does feel on par with other unlimited wash options in the area. Getting locked into an unlimited option is the best option (in my opinion), so there are no surprises and you can budget for this expense. Glad I gave this car wash a shot!

    It's like they didn't try

    When you pay 26 dollars for a car wash, drive through an automated washer, and they spend 7 minutes cleaning the inside, I feel like that is a 10 dollar at best service. My back seats were partially down, not all the way so they would clean under. They didn't even touch the seats, or clean under so. Also my inside surfaces are just as dirty as when I went in. They literally wipe the windows, and clean the steering wheel. Wish I would have checked like i said i would before handing over a 6 dollar tip.

    Cost? $330!!

    This merchant continues to insist that "service was provided as agreed". Here I add a photo of what a proper job can and should look like (at less than half of what Lake Forest charged).

    Great service! I got $2 off the full service wash with their text rewards program, made my total $22 !

    Ehhh. I paid for the full service wash and 8 guys vacuumed and cleaned my car. I thought I got lucky. But I think they were just acting. When I got back in my car the seats were not even wiped down. All they did was push buttons to get a tip. Wish I would have saved the extra 5$ tip and checked their work first. I will never be back. I pointed out a bird shit stain on my windshield and they did not even get that. Save your money and just vacuum yourself . There was also still trash on back seat and did not even wipe down dash

    See all

    Quick drive through service and for a slight up charge, more detailed drying of your car.

    Great car wash in convenient location. Haven't tried the full service yet, but for the price, it's well worth it.

    Car wash is good. Missing money from my car. 'Manager' said nothing he could do. $10 isn't worth your reputation.

    Since the ownership change several years ago, there's been a huge price increase. They've raised it several times. They're so greedy!

    Just had my car washed and when I picked it up, I noticed a large scratch on the back of my vehicle…read morein a very visible area. I immediately brought it to the attention of the manager, Alfredo, stated that the scratch was already there before the wash. This was not true. I did not appreciate being spoken down to or having my concerns dismissed. I later called to request access to the surveillance footage so we could confirm whether the scratch was present before I entered the car wash parking lot. I was told only the owner or the owner's son, Adam, could access the videos. When I spoke with Adam, I asked if we could review the footage together to verify what happened. His response was, "We owe you nothing. What do you want, a free car wash?" I found this response extremely rude, belittling, and unprofessional. Regardless of the outcome, customers should be treated with respect and professionalism. Unfortunately, I never spoke directly with the owner, Ali, and all communication was handled through his son Adam, who did not manage the situation appropriately or professionally. At no point was there any real attempt to address the issue or provide customer support. If anyone finds themselves in a similar situation, make sure to formally request that the surveillance footage be preserved or subpoenaed immediately so it is not deleted before it can be reviewed. Very disappointed with both the customer service and the lack of accountability.
