What the two Detroit facilities offer

Hubbard Street RV and Boat Storage and Eden gardens rv & boat storage both list boat storage, trailer storage, vehicle parking and semi truck parking, so you are not locked into one rig type per site. Hubbard Street holds a 5.0 from 4 reviews. Eden gardens holds a 5.0 from 2 reviews and adds covered and outdoor spots plus cameras on site. Covered space matters more in Michigan than people expect. Sun breaks down gelcoat and vinyl over a few summers, and a roof keeps hail off the hull. If your boat sits outside, budget for a good cover and check the tie-downs after every storm.

Gate hours and access

One of the two Detroit facilities advertises 24/7 gate access, so confirm which one before you commit if you like to launch early or pull in after dark. The rest of the nearby spots may run posted hours, and a locked gate at 7pm is a real problem when the fish are biting at dawn. Ask how you get in after hours, whether there is a keypad code or a call ahead, and what happens if you lose the code. Get the answer in writing, then keep it somewhere in the tow vehicle.

Getting your boat ready to sit

Detroit winters are hard on batteries and fuel systems. Pull the battery and put it on a maintainer, or at least disconnect it so it does not drain while the boat sits. Stabilize the fuel, change the lower unit oil before the cold sets in, and leave the drain plug out so nothing pools in the bilge. Walk your spot before you sign. Look for standing water, low branches and how close the next trailer sits. A little room to open the trailer tongue and swing the motor saves your back every trip. Confirm your insurance covers the boat at a storage address, not just on the road, and that the facility has cameras or a locked gate if that matters to you.
