My new home for my rig.

I installed a new garage for my Winnebago UA. 16X16X50 feet. Now when I get ready to hit the road it is as clean as when I parked it. Sure does give me comfort to know my investment is protected.

We are starting tomorrow to do the site work for a 16 x 46 x 13'7" 'garage'. Are you satisfied with the 16ft. width?

We went 18ft when we built our RV port. We had to do that to be able to open the bay doors that come out with the slide on the driver's side.

Yes. I can open all of the side doors as needed, open the slide and store extra stuff in the garage. More room than I envisioned.

Ours is 16' wide, and it's a good fit. I can get the slides out when inside. The door is 12'wide, with 2' on each side. The size is more than adequate, just not luxurious.

Be sure to make it tall enough. My door is only 12' high (so is my celing height) so the Journey just fits. But the new ones are taller. If I had to do it over, I'd go for 14' ceiling height, enough for an overhead door (mine's a roll-up door).

No power yet. Going to do that in a few months. No need for heat in south Ga. We have too much of that already. It is insulated in case we get a cold snap.

Very nice job. What a difference it makes having the rig protected from the elements (and critters looking for a place to move in). I should have done that 10 years ago, when I built an add-on motorhome port to my house. It protected the RV somewhat from sun and rain, but that's all.

This year, instead of going to Florida for the winter, I started on a new project, a pole barn for my RV & boat; 4 months of hard work. Wish I had done it 10 years ago.

Great garage for the UA! I especially like your green toad, probably comes in handy when the grass gets a little long around the site

CaptBill,
Did you design the building/floor plan your self or is it commercially available? Looks Great!

Best,
