KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Winona
- Winona car rentals provide flexibility and convenience, allowing you to explore the city and its surrounding areas at your own pace. Unlike public transportation, a rented car gives you the freedom to reach off-the-beaten-path destinations and scenic spots. Garvin Heights Park, Great River Bluffs State Park, and the Minnesota Marine Art Museum become more accessible with car rentals in Winona. Moreover, you can easily venture to nearby attractions like the charming town of Lanesboro or the picturesque Mississippi River Valley, enhancing your overall travel experience.
- Securing a rental car at La Crosse Airport (LSE) is straightforward. The airport hosts five major rental car companies, each with customer service counters conveniently located within the terminal building near the baggage claim area. What adds to the convenience is that all rental vehicles are situated just outside the terminal in the adjacent parking lot. This eliminates the need for lengthy transfers or shuttles, making the rental process efficient and hassle-free. For added convenience, you can also book your rental car in advance through the KAYAK website.
- Driving in Winona generally reflects a calm and respectful style. Residents tend to follow traffic rules, making the atmosphere relaxed. The presence of bicycles is noticeable, owing to the city's bike-friendly infrastructure. While trucks can be seen due to their location along major highways, they don't dominate the roads. Pedestrians usually adhere to crosswalks, resulting in fewer instances of jaywalking. Common vehicles include sedans, SUVs, and a mix of small and mid-sized cars. The driving environment in Winona emphasizes courtesy and adherence to regulations.
- Driving car rentals in Winona can be challenging during rush hour and winter months. Rush hour, from 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 6 pm on weekdays, affects major routes like Highway 61, Highway 14, and Huff Street, potentially leading to congestion. Winter's snow and ice can create difficult driving conditions, although the city generally handles snow well. While navigating a rental car during these times might be demanding, cautious driving and awareness of peak hours and seasonal conditions can help ensure a smoother experience.

Pros:
Hertz had a very reasonable rental to use around town for a week. Service desk was very informative about the vehicle. The inspection of the vehicle before leaving is key.4,0 Mediocre
Apr 2017
Pros:
The service desk lady was nice enough. The price was cheaper than Enterprise.Cons:
I picked up my vehicle late at night. It was dark and it had been a long day for the service desk lady who admitted she hadn't inspected the car yet. She walked me out to the vehicle, there was no vehicle inspection performed. The Jeep Compass came with dents, cracked bumper corners, a broken fog lamp, missing panels from the bottom of doors, and an annoying change oil light. These were previously known as evidenced by the white X's around the damage. Throughout my 11-day trip I felt like the muffler must have had a hole in it because at 50 mph I felt I was driving a motorboat. Too loud!10,0 Wonderful

Jul 2017
Cons:
We reserved a minivan to transport 7 people, 3 of them in car seats, from Lacrosse to Minneapolis for a family wedding. When we went to pick it up they did not have a van. Gave us an explorer with 7 seats but no room for anything else. Had to have two people and most bags get a ride with someone else. Enterprise said we could switch out the vehicle in Minneapolis. I spent and hour on the phone trying to work that out. They would not bring us the vehicle so we had to drive 40 minutes to the airport and wait 45 minutes to get that switch done and then 40 minutes back.Avis
