- As a small southern Maine city, finding narrow roads and one-way streets in Windham is not uncommon. Nevertheless, driving should be manageable in the city, but it requires you to remain attentive. The city has many roundabouts and sharp corners. Also, driving your car rentals while keeping pedestrians safe can be challenging. Pay attention to know when you should slow down, especially when approaching intersections, roundabouts, and thickly inhabited areas. Remain sober, as the city implements a zero-tolerance policy on drinking and driving.
- Windham averages 74 inches of snow yearly. Driving during winter can be challenging due to wet roads, precipitation, and snowfall. Wet roads lower the traction between the vehicle's tires and the road surface. Vehicles can easily veer off the roads.

For instance, ensure you pick a vehicle with effective tires for added grip. Also, be sure to have adequate wiper fluid while also making sure that the windshield wipers work as they should.

Oct 2020
Pros:
I got the last car available and the interior had a strong smell of gas for the entire duration of the trip. I had to drive with the windows rolled down and no one from Enterprise answered the phone while trying to connect with them and ask if I could exchange the car during the trip from Portland to Bar Harbor.Cons:
A real person answering the phone and/or calling me back.5,6 Fair
Oct 2020
Pros:
The staff I saw were nice. THere was no one there when I left with the car, and there was a problem. There was something wrong with the driver's side door, and there was no one to talk with about it. I just left because it was late and I was tired.Cons:
For $100 per day, give me a car that is perfect. That was way too expensive for a car with a door that sounded like it would break off every time I opened it.10,0 Wonderful
