Eagle Rock RV & Boat Storage Breaks Ground

In April, a ground breaking was held for Eagle Rock RV & Boat Storage, an almost 80,000 square foot indoor vehicle storage business. Construction is expected to be complete in early September.

Located approximately half way between Spokane and Coeur d’Alene, Eagle Rock RV & Boat Storage is geared toward offering vehicle owners an affordable, garage-style storage facility.
