The airport is easy to use- very small. No shuttle was required which is nice. Rentals are always expensive now- probably not much you can do about that.

Unless you have a flight through St George airport and you arrive between 11am-6pm, do not rent from Hertz at the airport.

No, fairly easy although some roads need improvement with resurfacing or repaving. Regardless, the awesome vehicle I was provided smoothed out the roughness with new tires and all whell drive.
KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Saint George
Saint George Utah has a climate that is primarily dry and semi-arid with temperatures that can get extremely high. For this reason, exploring the city is much more comfortable using a rental car compared to other public transportation services. The main airport, which is the Saint George Regional Airport, is remotely located near the outskirts of the city, making car rentals in Saint George an ideal option for touring the sights of the city. Rental cars are also convenient for touring popular tourist attractions, such as the Zion National Park, which is located less than an hour away. Alternatively, you can take a drive to the desert to tour the Little Black Mountain Petroglyphs.
There are a number of car rental services in the city, some of which are conveniently situated at the Saint George Regional Airport and include Enterprise, Hertz, Budget, National and Sunnycars, all located at 4550 S. Airport Parkway. Off-site agencies are accessible via the Saint George Shuttle and the Salt Lake Express, in addition to local airport taxis. Onsite agencies can be found outside the terminal door to your left and right.
There are a number of areas to enjoy scenic drives while visiting Saint George. However, when roads get too crowded, some drivers attempt to cut into traffic while turning sharp illegal corners and changing lanes, which can cause major accidents. Visitors should also be wary of pedestrians and cyclists who, at times, don’t adhere to traffic lights.
Rush hours in Saint George are short-lived, with locals spending an average of 20min in traffic. However, like many other major cities, some roads contain potholes and/or construction work, which might end up extending the length of your journey. Since the weather in Saint George is mostly sunny throughout the year, drivers often experience a hassle-free time on the road.
Your trip to Utah begins by picking up cheap car rentals in Saint George Municipal Airport in Saint George and driving approximately 15 miles or 24km to the city center. Driving is the only way you're going to enjoy your trip. How else will you make it to the Valley of Fire state park or the remote Spring Valley State for sight-seeing, fishing, ATV'ing, hunting, and hiking? But as you unplug, it's important to update yourself with the state law to ensure you're not breaking it. For example, even when off-roading, you and your companions must wear safety belts, plus you cannot possess or transport any open containers of alcohol inside Saint George car rentals.
There's more to Saint George than being associated as the gateway to Zion National Park, the Mormon population, the 5-acre Red Hills Desert Garden, the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm, and more. Other unique destinations located a few hours from St. George include an off-roading drive to St. George Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, a 2-hour and 43-minute drive to the North Rim, Grand Canyon National Park, about 45-minute fishing trip to Pine Valley State Park, and 2.5-hour scenic drive to Lake Powell for dinner at the Wahweap Marina.
Utah's toll road, the Adam Avenue Parkway that connects US-89 to I-84 near Washington Terrace, is the only toll road that runs across the state of Utah that allows commuters to bypass the rest of US-89 through Washington Terrace to I-84. While E-ZPass is accepted in Utah and Colorado, you can settle your toll fees on the parkway with cash or with an ExpressCard. Note that there is no video tolling system on Adams Avenue Parkway.

They had a Mazda CX5 with all wheel drive for me, which was exactly what I needed for mountain snow and ice. The car was quiet on the highway and completely satisfactory in every other way. The representative was lovely, and I had about a 1 minute wait when picking up the car and no wait turning it back in. The St. George airport is very easy to negotiate.

Pros:
Excellent staff when checking in- he was super fast and friendly. And drop-off was so SO easy. She directed me where to park my car, scanned the windshield and sent me on my way. It was a really easy rental experience. I'm happy with my service.
Cons:
It's always so much more expensive when dropping a vehicle off at a different location. I wish that wasn't the case. Not sure it was worth over $100 to have the car for 5 hours.
The car was spacious for our group. The pick up was odd- rep barely made eye contact and gave us wrong directions to find the car. He also told us the gas would be marked at empty bc their refueling service was out of order somehow (unsure of details) but the receipt did not reflect this and we were charged for refueling at drop off. Called customer service for refund bc there was no one available to accept our return at drop off. Anyway, the car was fine- the human element not so smooth.

Picking up the car was a good experience the office was busy but the line didn’t take long. Only issue was the car smelling of smoke but i didn’t want to go back inside to get a new car as I have a toddler. Dropping off the car was fast and easy. Mark was super attentive and helpful. I let him know my concerns about the smoke and he apologized and made sure everything else was great. I will rent with enterprise again!

Pros:
Pick up was easy. Drop off time seemed a little strict given that the office was closed both on Saturday and Sunday Sunday and all that was required was a key drop off.
Cons:
Reserved a truck. When called the day before our reservation they said that they were short on trucks. I did say that anything with 4-wheel drive and a higher clearance was acceptable, was given a Jeep Cherokee that is not any farther off the ground than a sedan.
They didn’t have a rental. Got charged for insurance but didn’t get a car. Terrible. Won’t use Kayak or Budget again.

I rented a 4x4 pickup because there was three of us going on a ski trip. They stated that the pickup (2020 Ram Limited) had too many miles on it and could not be rented. They in turn gave me a Durango only to discover that it was not a 4x4, they then traded that for a Toyota 4-Runner which was a gutless tinny 4x4 that barely made it over the mountain and the cruise control did not work. I ended up trading that in for a Ford Explorer Platinum which was perfect... So what is my time worth??? I made a reservation weeks in advance and ended up getting keys for 4-different vehicles before getting something that was satisfactory!! Disappointed to say the least!

Car stunk to high heaven. Smelled like somebody smoked in the car and they used some strong smelling cleaner to cover it up. Was so bad I had to stop and get some febreeze to counteract the smell.
