It offers several variations to choose from and is noted for having deals matching those at other outlet centers.

It is described as a good place for children because there are numerous playgrounds and kiddie stuff in the area. The layout is a mile in circumference, which some find good for exercise. It has ample parking space with around 8 gates, though it is a good walk from one end to the other.
