What storage looks like here
Of the 9 facilities, 7 offer indoor storage and 3 offer covered. That's a good ratio for a Front Range city, where sun and hail do most of the damage. Outdoor spots exist but are less common. If you can't get indoor, at least get covered. The top-rated option is SmartStop Self Storage at 4.8 stars from 781 reviews, a volume that suggests they run a steady operation. Several Public Storage locations fill out the list, with ratings from 4.5 to 4.7. Three facilities have 24/7 access, which matters if you leave early or come back late. The rest keep office hours, so check before you commit.
Know before you park
Check gate hours first. A 24/7 gate is worth paying for if you use your RV often, but not if you only move it twice a year. Ask about the surface: gravel, asphalt, or concrete. Gravel holds moisture and weeds, concrete is easier on tires. Confirm whether the spot is pull-through or back-in, since a tight back-in at a busy facility can eat an afternoon. Ask about battery maintainers and whether you can plug in. If the facility doesn't allow trickle charging, plan to pull your batteries and keep them on a tender at home. Finally, call your insurance agent. Some policies cover stored RVs differently than parked ones, and you want that settled before you sign.
Sun, hail, and winter
Colorado sun is hard on gelcoat and decals. Even a covered spot helps, but if you end up outdoors, a breathable cover and a good coat of wax go a long way. Hail is the bigger worry along the Front Range, so indoor storage earns its keep in a bad storm season. For winter, drain the lines and add antifreeze unless you plan to use the rig. Mice find their way into anything parked near open space, so seal the obvious gaps and skip the rodent poison. Check on the rig monthly to catch leaks and flat spots, and move it a few feet if you can. Lakewood's freeze-thaw cycles are tough on tires and seals, so don't let it sit untouched from October to May.
