Next to the house between garage and fence, barely can get in the door when stowed. California, year round camping, TT stowed when not going somewhere with it in tow.

Ours winters where we park it, unless we're home then its in the RV "hidey hole" beside the brick & mortar house.

Safe travels & enjoyable journeys!

Going to bring my TT to a pole barn down the road to keep the 200 inches plus snow off of it. I'm looking to build a 16x40 roof structure in my back yard next year. Now I'm thinking to spend this roof money for gas money to Texas or Florida in the next few winters. (No snow there).

Ours will stay on the pad we poured next to the garage.

We store ours in the driveway next to the house. I feel more comfortable with it at home. Besides if something happens at home you know about it right a way. storage centers you may never know until the damage is done.

storage yard, but we are measuring for a concrete pad along side the garage. it may be too tight a squeeze between property line and house since we live on a court and the house is angled.

When not being used ours lives in a limestone cave. Sixty five degrees year round. No dust, no sun, no mice and no bugs. Comes out as clean as it went in.

No guano either I'm guessing.

You need to store it in Florida with the rest of us snowbirds. Campers aren't supposed to hibernate.

Ours never hibernates, actually used more during our mild winters in the SE...store it on a concrete slab next to our house with door access from my small shop area in the garage.

Outside at a friends 10 acres. Here's a picture from last winter.
We are supposed to have a little snow in northern Minnesota today. I winterized the camper a couple of days ago so I am ready. Another winter is just around the corner.

Acadian Bob, I'm gonna go to hell over that barn!

"Thou shalt not covet thy forum friend's barn."

That's number eleven.

Ours won't hibernate per se. Francis lives in the back yard, behind double gates inside the privacy fence. We're going to have one of those metal garage thingies installed for her next spring.

I'm paranoid about 'er. *Every* morning before leaving for work I do a walk around 'er, checking the windows, doors, back off and check the roof. And I mean every morning, rain or shine.

We're takin' her out this weekend, then of course the Thanksgiving trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas. I'm bound and determined to do a Christmas trip somewhere, even if it's just to a beautiful lake/state park we go to that's about 45 minutes West of us; Caney Lake. Or maybe Lake Claiborne, also West of us.

Love our milder winters here!

Edit; oops, forgot;
She'll spend part of her Winter at our dealer's lot. Replacement of one of the day/nite pos shades, and replacement of the electric jack is required.

On a campsite at Old Mill Stream in Lancaster Pa. then we can still use it when we want to, just no water but they have very clean bath house and area to wash dishes, now if I could just convince the wife to retire it would be headed to warmer climate
