Such wonderful nice people there. Had fun looking around; it is much larger than the last time l was there years ago! The dealers have some fun things to browse and if you need storage space and like to help our hometown folks. Come here! And make sure you say hello to the friendly kitty who will come right up to greet you when you walk in!

I had almost an entire unit detroyed due to a leaky roof & the entire cost was left to me even with insurance. Unless you are storing a boat here, go elsewhere.
