New so it’s a very clean place. The air hose next to the vacuum’s are a nice touch most places don’t have.

Great experience! The hands-free car wash was quick, easy, and left my car really clean. Kay was friendly, professional, and helpful. Excellent customer service and a smooth process. Highly recommend!

Cleaning your car here is a pleasant experience. THEY provide plenty of rags, glass and all purpose/dash cleaner. Vacuum w/ 2 different hose attachments. They have a self-serve mat cleaning station that's great. Their membership club is well priced but take advantage of their introductory pricing $10 per month for 3 months. All in all it was a great experience.

I was more than pleased with my experience at The Riptide Car Wash! Kay was extremely informative and shared all available services with me. I can’t wait until next week for my next wash and to officially become a member. This photo is after a days worth of travel and my car was still clean. Thank you so much Kay!
