KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Vernon

  • With car rentals in Vernon, you can easily visit multiple destinations daily, maximizing your sightseeing opportunities. Additionally, some attractions, parks, and points of interest might be more easily accessible by car, mainly if they are located in remote areas or have limited public transportation options, such as Shenipsit State Forest and Valley Falls Park. Most importantly, renting a car provides a private and personal space for you and your travel companions. You can have discussions, make phone calls, or enjoy the journey without the presence of strangers.
  • Bradley International Airport (BDL) is the primary airport serving the Hartford metropolitan area, which includes Vernon, CT. Upon arrival, you will find several major car rentals in Vernon, including Enterprise, Hertz, Avis, Budget, National, and Alamo, located at the airport, offering a range of vehicle options to suit your needs. The car rental facilities at BDL are in the airport's Ground Transportation Center, which is a short distance from the main terminal. A courtesy shuttle offers frequent transfers from the terminals to the car rental facility.
  • You might find that drivers in Vernon are more likely to let others merge, yield to pedestrians, and generally be more courteous on the road. Remember that some parts of Vernon may have historic districts with narrower roads, reflecting the town's historical character. These areas might have narrower streets and limited space for parking your Vernon car rentals. Lastly, while dedicated bicycle lanes might not be prevalent on all roads, cyclists can generally share the road with vehicles. Some streets might have marked bike lanes, while others may be designated as "share the road" routes.
  • Vernon is a suburban town, and while it may experience some traffic during peak commuting times, rush hours are generally not as pronounced as in major cities. Commuter traffic could be more noticeable during weekday mornings (around 7 am to 9 am) and evenings (around 4 pm to 6 pm) as people travel to and from work or school. To this end, consider skirting around notoriously known streets for heavy snarl-ups, like Route 30 (Hartford Turnpike), Route 83 (Talcottville Road), and I-84.
  • Medium hire cars in Vernon are around 42% cheaper than other car types, on average

When I arrived to pick up my rental there were 5 people in front of me all waiting for their rentals. I was told there were no rentals at that time and I would have to wait until the clerk’s supervisor called and told her what to do. She had no idea when I would get my rental. I left there with a Ford Explorer which is a far cry from a Kia compact at about 3:30 pm. I waited 21/2 hrs for that. The clerk was efficient, but the wait and the fact that there was no car waiting was inexcusable as I had a reservation. Why did I reserve a rental at all ?
