KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Hendersonville

  • Explore what Hendersonville, the ‘City by The Lake’ has to offer, conveniently with a rental car. As the Old Hickory Lake lies around most of the town, you’ll need easy mobility to access & enjoy the various recreational centers. Opting for Hendersonville car rentals will also make your trips to the Country Hills Golf Course or the various local parks considerably easier. Country music fans can as well enjoy a ride to the Hendersonville Memory Gardens where some of the county music legends are buried.
  • Asheville Regional Airport (AVL) which is 9.2 miles away from Hendersonville, offers a Rental Car facility located within the terminal next to baggage claim, and is only a short walk to the car lot. The consolidated center has several rental car companies such as Hertz, Enterprise, AVIS, Budget, and many more. Each agency has its own service counter and some with self-service kiosks.
  • Driving car rentals in Hendersonville is not meant for aggressive drivers especially on Main Street as the street’s layout slows down traffic to improve pedestrian visibility and safety through the mid-block crosswalks and the curb bulb-outs at the intersections. This is however relatively refreshing as drivers get a chance to see the local businesses and pedestrians are reassured of their safety.
  • Making your way to Hendersonville will be less tedious as there are two freeway routes, Interstate 65 and State Highway 35E, leading into the city. Hendersonville is considered to have favorable commute times as a one-way commute is around 26 min which is the average of the nation. However, try to avoid the morning commute which can extend up to 30 min, especially on I-65 S than US Highway 31E South. Try to avoid also the evening drive since traffic clogs even more, stretching the commute time up to 45–55 minutes. In addition, there aren’t many alternative routes to take to Nashville because of the lake, but you can consider taking Highway 35 and save a few minutes.
  • Book your car hire in Hendersonville at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Standard car hire in Hendersonville are around -146% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pros:

Great staff, very friendly and personable. We did receive an upgrade since they didn’t have our size requested available and it was much appreciated! Everything was great. Our only “hiccup” if you want to call it that was that they didn’t have a chance to fill up with gas before we got there but they told us that up front and wasn’t an issue at all. They said to just bring it back with however much in it. Will definitely rent from here again. :)

Cons:

Everything was great!

Pros:

The employees were very nice!

Cons:

I had two cars to choose from. Both smelled like smoke. The employees tried very hard to neutralize the smell but it didn't work. My only recourse was to drive out to Nashville airport in order to exchange the car. The employees at Nashville Airport we're extremely accommodating and gave us a great car, but I should have never had to do that. They should have brought the car to me.

They would it honor what we booked our reservation for and we’re trying to charge 3 times the amount. The worker would not tell us why it was so much more. She just said “it’s just what the computer gave me” and couldn’t give us any sort of reasoning except that it was additional fees, but she couldn’t tell us what the fees were. We ended up not even picking up the rental because we were not willing to pay 3 times what we booked for with no explanation at all.

Avis called me, literally, as my Uber was pulling up to drive me to the rental location to tell me they did not have any cars available for the day. I ended up paying almost double for a last minute rental from another service, was very late getting where I needed to be AND I have a $50 charge on my credit card from Avis and the insurance yet to be refunded. Terrible, defensive agent when they called at the last minute too. Avis will never get my business again and I may need Kayak to assist with getting these charges reversed/refunded.
