If you own a boat or RV in North Georgia, you already know the struggle: where do you put it when you're not using it? HOA restrictions, cramped driveways, and nosy neighbors make storing at home a headache — and not every storage facility is built with serious recreational vehicles in mind.
That's where Oakwood, Georgia comes in. And more specifically, that's where Oakwood Boat & RV Storage on McBrayer Road comes in.
Here's why this corner of Hall County is hands-down the best place to store your boat or RV in the greater Lake Lanier area.
Location is everything when it comes to boat storage. The whole point of owning a boat is getting on the lake — not spending an hour hauling it from storage to the ramp.
Oakwood sits right at the southern tip of Lake Lanier, just one mile off Hwy 985 at Exit 14. That means you can pull out of our gate, hop on 985, and be launching at one of Lake Lanier's many boat ramps in under 10 minutes. No long detours, no fighting traffic through Gainesville or Buford — just a quick, easy trip from storage to the water.
For boaters coming from Flowery Branch, Buford, Cumming, or the Atlanta metro, Oakwood is a natural stopping point right on the way to the lake.
One thing that makes Oakwood uniquely convenient is its highway connectivity. Hwy 985 runs right through town, connecting directly to I-985 and I-85 to the south — making it a breeze to reach from Gainesville, Flowery Branch, Buford, Sugar Hill, and beyond.
Whether you're towing a 30-foot RV or a bass boat on a trailer, navigating in and out of our facility on McBrayer Road is smooth and straightforward. Our pull-through spaces mean you never have to attempt a stressful back-in maneuver, and our extra-wide spaces give you room to unhitch and maneuver without stress.
If you've lived in North Georgia for any length of time, you know the weather here doesn't mess around. Summer brings intense UV rays that fade paint, crack vinyl, and deteriorate rubber seals. Winter delivers freezing rain, ice storms, and the occasional deep freeze that can damage engines and plumbing if your vehicle isn't properly protected.
Storing your boat or RV outdoors in a random field — or worse, your driveway — exposes it to all of that. At Oakwood Boat & RV Storage, we offer three levels of protection to match your needs and budget:
A covered or 3-sided space can dramatically extend the life of your vehicle, saving you thousands in premature repairs, fading, and weather damage over the years.
Not all storage facilities are created equal. Some are just gravel lots with a padlock. Oakwood Boat & RV Storage was built specifically for boat and RV owners, and it shows in the details:
These aren't luxury add-ons — they're the practical tools that make owning and maintaining a boat or RV so much easier.
Your life doesn't fit into a 12-month contract, and neither should your storage. We offer month-to-month rentals so you have full flexibility. Planning to sell your RV? Moving? Taking an extended trip and bringing the boat with you? No problem. You're never locked in.
You can also rent your space and pay your bill entirely online, 24 hours a day. Manage your account from your phone or computer without ever needing to call or visit the office.
Leaving a $50,000 boat or a $100,000 motorhome somewhere overnight takes trust. At Oakwood Boat & RV Storage, security isn't an afterthought — it's built into everything we do. The property is fully fenced and gated, monitored by 24/7 cameras, and accessible only by tenants with smartphone-authorized entry.
We keep the facility clean, well-lit, and well-maintained because we know your vehicle represents a major investment. Our goal is simple: when you come back to pick up your boat or RV, it should be in exactly the same condition you left it.
If you're storing a boat or RV anywhere in the Lake Lanier area — Gainesville, Flowery Branch, Buford, Oakwood, or the surrounding Hall and Forsyth County communities — we'd love to earn your business.
