Lawrence boaters dealing with Kansas storms know that summer highs near 90 degrees and high humidity can create tough conditions for a boat left sitting exposed all season. Combined with roughly 39.5 inches of annual rainfall, moisture exposure is a real consideration when deciding where to store a boat between outings. These factors make the choice between covered and uncovered storage more than a matter of preference.
Winter brings a different challenge, with lows dropping to around 23 degrees, which means boat owners also need to think about cold-weather exposure during the off-season. RecNation provides boat storage options built to give Lawrence owners a choice based on their budget and how much protection they want for their vessel.
One RecNation facility serves the Lawrence area, located at 24105 W 43rd St in Shawnee, approximately 22.4 miles away. This location offers outdoor canopy, outdoor uncovered, and indoor garage storage, giving Lawrence boat owners several ways to balance cost against weather protection.

Storage Options Available in Lawrence
The three confirmed storage types offer different levels of weather exposure and price points, so Lawrence boat owners can weigh cost against how much protection their vessel needs during the humid summers and cold winters typical of the region.
Outdoor Canopy Storage
Canopy storage places a roof over the boat, which helps reduce direct overhead sun and rainfall exposure while the sides remain open to the air.
This option may be worth considering for owners who want some relief from Lawrence's summer heat and rain without paying for a fully enclosed space.
Outdoor Uncovered Storage
Outdoor uncovered storage leaves the boat exposed to sun, rain, wind, and temperature swings, including the summer highs and winter lows recorded for the area.
At the Shawnee facility, outdoor uncovered storage starts at $82 per month, making it a lower-cost option for owners who prioritize price over added weather protection.
Indoor Garage Storage
Indoor garage storage offers the greatest separation from direct sun, rain, and wind among the three confirmed options at the Shawnee facility.
This may help limit exposure to the high humidity and heavy rainfall common in Lawrence, though it does not eliminate all humidity or guarantee complete protection for a stored boat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Many Kansas HOAs prohibit visible boat, RV, and trailer parking on residential property, and Lawrence neighborhoods often enforce similar restrictions. This makes off-site storage essential for boat owners who want to stay compliant while keeping their vessel protected. RecNation RV & Boat Storage at 24105 W 43rd St in Shawnee, KS offers a convenient, HOA-friendly alternative with secure, dedicated space for boats outside residential limits.
Lawrence experiences hot summers with highs around 90 degrees and cold winters dipping to about 23 degrees, making year-round boat storage important for protecting against temperature extremes. While Kansas does not have a hurricane season, spring and summer bring strong storms, so many boat owners choose to store their boats before spring storm season begins, typically in early spring, to ensure protection through the changing seasons ahead.
Lawrence’s high humidity and 39.5 inches of annual rainfall create real risks for boats left outdoors, including mold growth, mildew, and rust on metal fittings. UV exposure from summer sun can also fade gel coat and upholstery over time. RecNation recommends covered or indoor boat storage in Shawnee to shield your boat from moisture, humidity, and sun damage, helping preserve its condition and value year round.
RecNation RV & Boat Storage in Shawnee, KS offers month-to-month boat storage plans with no long-term contracts required, giving Lawrence boat owners flexibility to store as needed. Monthly pricing varies based on boat size and storage type selected. Reserving a space is simple and can be done online through RecNation’s website, allowing you to secure your spot quickly without visiting the facility in person first.
