Just like a few other members, I stay ahead by a constant rotation, a built a wood shed that holds (2) season worth of wood, I then keep (1) seasons worth outside stacked on pallets.
I rotate the shed wood by alternating between section bins (each bin holds 2 cords), in the spring I'll re-fill the empty bin, with the open air stack, I'll then cut and split rounds and stack them on the pallets.
Obviously the outdoor wood stays outside in full open air for 1 year, then it sits in the semi open wood shed for 2 years before burning, this yields wood splits that are between 12-15% moisture content.
The shed is near the house, set along the perimeter of the driveway, so it doesn't take up really any space, the pallet stacks are on the west side of the yard on my "log landing" so that doesn't take up any space either.
