KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Glenwood Springs

  • Car rentals in Glenwood Springs come with many benefits that you may not get by using other road transport means. Compared to relying on fixed public transportation schedules, car rentals in Glenwood Springs offer you the advantage of flexibility and independence to explore at your preferred pace and schedule. With Glenwood Springs rental cars, you can easily venture to neighboring towns like New Castle and access natural attractions in Glenwood Springs, such as the renowned Glenwood Hot Springs Pool, which may not be conveniently reachable through public transport.
  • Eagle County Airport (EGE) is the primary airport where you will likely land when visiting Glenwood Springs. After landing, you can rent a car at the airport from one of the many car rental companies found at the airport. The car rental desk in Glenwood Springs can be found within the Eagle County Airport (EGE) terminal, situated on the first floor across from the baggage claim area. To collect your rental agreement, simply make your way to the counter inside the terminal.
  • When operating car rentals in Glenwood Springs, driving on the right side of the road and complying with speed limits, traffic signs, and signals is important. Exercise caution while driving car rentals in Glenwood Springs, particularly on narrow, winding roads, being mindful of road conditions to steer clear of potholes and obstacles. Employ defensive driving techniques in congested urban areas and narrow streets, maintaining constant vigilance. Indicate turning signals appropriately and adhere to local traffic regulations at all times.
  • Although driving Glenwood Springs car rentals can be an exciting experience, you are likely going to experience a few challenges, like heavy traffic during peak hours on most highways and urban areas. The morning and evening traffic hours on most highways in Glenwood Springs are 7 and 9 am and 4 and 6 pm. Due to snowfall, it may be more difficult to navigate rural areas and secondary roads during the winter months (usually between December to February).
  • Compact hire cars in Glenwood Springs are around 59% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Glenwood Springs?

    Choosing the type of Glenwood Springs rental car to drive will depend on various factors like the areas to visit, the luggage you are carrying, and the season you are visiting the city. For winter car rentals, opting for a vehicle equipped with snow tires and front-wheel drive is advisable. Front-wheel drive provides enhanced safety by "pulling" the vehicle through snow, unlike rear-wheel drive, that "pushes" it. These car types include Sedans with Front-Wheel Drive and compact SUVs.

  • What’s the speed limit in Glenwood Springs?

    When driving car rentals in Glenwood Springs, always be careful to read the road signs that indicate various driving instructions, including speed limits. The typical speed limit within residential areas and neighborhoods is 30 mph. On open mountainous highways, the speed limit is 40 mph. In urban areas and commercial zones, the speed limit usually ranges from 55 mph to 65 mph. You risk incurring fines or other penalties if you fail to adhere to the predetermined speed restriction.

  • Where are the best places to park in Glenwood Springs?

    Glenwood Springs offers various parking options for visitors. Downtown Glenwood Springs provides metered street parking and parking lots, which are convenient for exploring the charming downtown area and its attractions. The Glenwood Hot Springs Pool and Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park have dedicated visitor parking areas. The Glenwood Springs Community Center and shopping centers, such as Glenwood Meadows and Glenwood Mall, offer ample parking spaces. For parking areas that are not free in Glenwood Springs, expect to pay around $1 per hour and approximately $9 for a day.

They are attempting to defraud me with fake damages. The pictures of the “damage” don’t even show anything. If you google it they do it all the time. I will be pursuing legal action.

Representative at pick up was incredibly professional and nice. Representative at drop off in Denver was outstanding! Checked me in and out quickly, efficient, with respect and courtesy, this individual went way and beyond performing his job 👏 I Will rent again from this company. This has been one of the best car rental service that I have received in 15 years. Thank you for a wonderful experience

Everything was top notch from the representative pulling the vehicle up to the door and giving us tips for drop off for our departure back home. All other budget rental car locations need to model this one. The car cleanliness and maintenance was great!

Cons:

The gal at counter was not present. Would not let me charge to a new card, had to be the one one file. Gave me keys to a suv that had seat buckles all chewed up by a dog, totally broken. She knew I had 3 car seats or kids, too. No empathy, horrible service. I would do anything I can in future to avoid Budget rental car at this airport.

Our rental agreement included "I will fill gas tank" option. We drove very little, so it only needed $8.25 to fill the tank. However, I was charged an additional $38.18 for "Fuel and Service"! What a ripoff!! I didn't have a physical receipt, but I did send the details from my CC statement.
