RV cover vs shed?
I'm still stewing around about a good parking spot for my class C. There is no off-site storage I would trust within a reasonable distance of my home. The city will not allow me to add an ad...

Could you build a covered cover (carport) that closely matches the style of your house? Attached or standalone? I have a log cabin and built a wood carport next to it matching the colors, shingles, roof style. It’s big enough for the MH, and two cars with room to spare.
I am going to investigate this a little more. The big issue is height.
What I'm thinking about is possibly not a standard shed. I can extend the parking area so the rear of the RV is even with the roof peak of the house. In other words, the RV would be parked beside the back half of the house.
If the shed roof started at that point, but sloped at a more shallow angle than the roof, then it would be tall enough for the RV, without dwarfing the house.
My house has a metal roof and I'm sure the shed roof could be done in the same or similar color, which would look OK.
That would make the rear of the RV shed taller than the rear of the house but not by a lot. And the front of the RV shed would be the same height as the house gable, or close.
I have to get out and do some measuring and some basic geometry to see if this would work.
