Here is what that means for your rig.

What the two facilities offer
Both facilities here list covered, indoor and outdoor storage, and both handle boats and vehicles as well as RVs. Public Storage runs the show at both locations, rated 4.9 from 418 reviews and 4.8 from 223. That is a lot of feedback for a small market, which tells you people around here actually use these spots. The overlap matters. You are not choosing between a covered-only yard and an indoor barn. You are choosing between two similar setups and deciding which one fits your rig's size and your schedule.
Indoor versus covered in this climate
Kankakee County winters bring freeze and thaw cycles, and an RV left out in that will show it. Indoor storage keeps the rig out of UV, hail and snow load all at once, and it usually means your roof and decals last longer. Covered storage is the middle ground: shade and some protection overhead, but wind-driven rain still reaches the sides. Outdoor is the cheapest option and fine for a trailer or a boat you will pull out often. For a motorhome you plan to keep a decade, indoor is worth asking about first. Both facilities list all three, so ask what sizes they actually have open.
Practical habits that save a rig
Pull the batteries and put them on a maintainer over winter. A trickle charger costs less than a new battery bank and saves you a spring no-start. Check your gate hours before you commit, since a facility without 24/7 access means planning your trips around their schedule. Neither of the two here lists round-the-clock gate access, so confirm hours when you call. Ask about lighting and gating, which both locations list as features. Confirm your insurance covers the rig while it sits in storage, because a storage yard is not your driveway. And walk the space before you sign, looking for drainage and standing water.
