I prefer fully enclosed, but then that is as much for me as it is for the wood, maybe more;) In the winter, I make the 10 steps or so from the back door to the shed to get wood, and once I get in there, there is no hurry, regardless of the weather. I often have a smoke and relax, sometimes take my morning coffee with me. But my wood shed is more than a wood shed. My brother once told me, "you don't need to put your wood in there , that's silly, the weather won't hurt it" And I said, "it's not for the wood, it's for me!" The right side of the shed houses my wood supply for the winter. The outside storage under the eave and the porch are just extra during a really bad winter.

When I was splitting arounds of white oak, I would never had believed the moisture content and weight of the wood. I've split, maple, hickory, ceder, cherry.. etc.. but the weight didn't come close to white oak. It was like stacking cemet blocks...

I see that a few folks have a place to stack for seasoned purposes and then move the seasoned wood to the shed... Basically a double stack.. I will tell you right now, I couldn't do it..
