Ingleside & Fox Lake · On the Chain O'Lakes

Boat & RV storage minutes from the water.

Get the boat out of the garage and the camper off the driveway. Our gated, fenced outdoor lot in Ingleside has over 2 acres of room for boats, RVs, campers and trailers, including the big ones other places turn away.

  • Gated & fenced
  • Month to month
  • Family owned for 35 years

Why store with us

A safe, affordable spot for the big stuff.

Whether it's the HOA, a crowded driveway or a garage that needs to hold a car again, we've got room.

  • Gated & fenced

    The whole lot is fenced, and the only way in is through the gate. It's a far better home for your boat or RV than the street.

  • Room for big rigs

    With over 2 acres, we can take large boats and RVs that many facilities can't. If you can get it here, chances are we can store it.

  • Minutes from the water

    Close to Chain O'Lakes marinas, boat launches and dealers, with RV dealers and repair shops nearby too.

  • One simple rate

    $3 per foot per month, based on overall length. No size tiers and no guesswork. Measure it and you know the price.

  • Month to month

    No long-term contract. Store for the winter, the season or the whole year, and leave when you're ready.

  • Locally owned

    We're a family-owned business that has served the area for 35 years. You'll deal with real local people, not a call center.
