Parking

Watters Creek offers shoppers a variety of convenient parking options. Three parking garages are available, each with convenient access to our shops and restaurants. There are dozens of free metered spaces available along the streets. Through the Change for Charity program, net proceeds from the meters are donated to local charities and used to host community events at Watters Creek. Feeding the meters is encouraged – a quarter can make a big difference in the community if everyone contributes. Free Valet parking is available at The Cheesecake Factory and Mi Cocina for their respective restaurants.
