The roads are usually slippery during cold and snowy seasons so, drive at a reasonable speed and with caution if you’re in town.

Feb 2020
Pros:
Staff very friendly. Drop off and pick up were a breeze.Cons:
Nothing I can think of. My passengers lived the tall van, much easier to get in and out of. The sliding door was a little tough to close, an electric close and open function would have been the only thing that could have made it better.9,2 Wonderful

Pros:
Staff very helpful, professional and friendly.Cons:
Maxima I had reserved was not available. I had my wife drive me to this location, passing an Enterprise location very close to our home, because the Maxima was supposed to be held there for me.9,6 Wonderful
Oct 2019
Pros:
I received an email confirmation prompt the day before the rental, full walk through of the car’s interior functions including Bluetooth syncing, gas tank release, etc., and a phone call the next day asking if all was going smoothly with the car. Excellent customer care.Thrifty
