Apartment Living Just Got More Convenient
One of the challenges of apartment living is finding enough room for everything you own. Seasonal clothing, bicycles, outdoor equipment, holiday decorations, furniture, family keepsakes and other belongings can quickly take up valuable space in your apartment. At Oak Shore Commons, residents have an added convenience that makes apartment living easier: convenient access to climate-controlled self storage located right next door. Instead of filling your apartment, renting a storage unit across town or making repeated trips to a distant facility, you can keep the things you don't use every day close to home.
Keep Your Apartment Comfortable and Clutter-Free
Your apartment should be a place to relax, entertain and enjoy your lifestyle—not a place to store everything you own. A nearby storage unit gives you the flexibility to move less frequently used belongings out of your apartment while keeping them readily accessible.
Storage can be especially useful for:
Seasonal clothing and winter gear
Bicycles and outdoor recreation equipment
Camping equipment
Holiday decorations
Furniture and household items
College belongings
Business inventory and supplies
Family keepsakes and memorabilia
Items you want to keep but don't need every day
You get the extra space you need without having to move into a larger—and potentially more expensive—apartment.
Especially Convenient for Northern Michigan Living
Living in the Traverse City area means enjoying all four seasons. That can also mean owning a lot of seasonal equipment. One season you're storing bikes, beach equipment and summer gear. A few months later, you may need room for skis, snowboards, winter clothing and other cold-weather equipment. Having climate-controlled storage nearby gives you a convenient place to keep those belongings when they're not in regular use. And because the storage facility is located immediately next to Oak Shore Commons, accessing your belongings is much easier than driving across town every time you need something.
Perfect for Active Residents
Oak Shore Commons is designed for an active lifestyle, with convenient access to the TART Trail, nearby beaches, fitness facilities and other recreational opportunities. But an active lifestyle can also require a lot of equipment.
Where do you keep your:
Bikes? Kayaks? Camping gear? Skis? Golf equipment? Beach chairs?
Instead of letting that equipment take over your apartment, nearby storage provides another option. Keep your apartment organized while keeping your recreational equipment close enough to grab when adventure calls.
Climate-Controlled Storage Adds Another Layer of Protection
Climate-controlled storage can be particularly useful for belongings that may be sensitive to temperature and humidity fluctuations. Items such as furniture, electronics, documents, photographs, clothing and other personal possessions can benefit from being stored in a more controlled environment than an ordinary outdoor storage unit. For Oak Shore Commons residents, that protection is combined with the convenience of having storage located right next to their community.
Live in Your Apartment. Store the Rest Nearby.
Why fill your apartment with things you don't use every day? At Oak Shore Commons, you can enjoy the space and comfort of your apartment while having convenient access to additional storage just steps away. More space. Less clutter. Greater convenience.
