I have been coming here since the 90's. Over the years, it has become a little more commercial.
Not as many independent sellers. There are more venders selling the same stuff.
The prices have increased for the food and beverages.
We prefer to bring our own water and snacks as we stroll thru looking for the unique finds. But always stop off at the kettle corn stand to purchase a bag to go. Located at the west gate.
Getting harder to find good deals. Some vendors you can haggle with. Most sell for retail prices.
But always a good place to take a weekend stroll.
As for parking. We prefer to park at gateway community college and walk across. Parking lots are always full onsite and small.
