I'd think twice before creating a haven for rattlesnakes with a dense growth of weeds and shrubs. Just apply a general spray of kill-it-all vegetation rid, until you achieve the no-growth look.

I wouldn't spend much $ improving the place with a carport, if you don't own the property.

Sounds like a sweet crib to me.
