KAYAK’s top tips for renting 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.

Patrick, Mar 2021
Cons:
When I arrived to pick up my vehicle, I was told that they had no vehicles available it would be at least two days before they had any. They blamed it on a glitch in their computer system and that they had had this problem before. It seems to me that’s a pretty massive problem they should work out, because I created a major disruption in my schedule and my plans, and Enterprise did nothing but say “sorry, try somewhere else.”10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
The staff was friendly and helpful.Cons:
The car was given to me in a parking garage, where it was a little dark so I didn’t see a few imperfections on the vehicle, but I didn’t have a problem when returning the vehicle. The staff didn’t record the gas correctly, so they thought I owed a balance when returning the vehicle at a half tank. Overall it worked out fine.8.0 Very good

Sandy, May 2021
Pros:
Very friendly and helpful! My problem is with Priceline. They scheduled this at a downtown location, which after I got off the airplane had no way to get to before closing. System shouldn’t have allowed. I selected BDL airport and couldn’t have known what street the car rental places are. Avis worked with me but airport fees made the care over $100 more. I won’t be ordering from Priceline again. I will order from Avis directly. They are great.Cons:
See above.8.0 Very good

Anonymous, Oct 2020
Pros:
The convenience and service I received at the time of pick-up and drop-off. Easy and seamless.Cons:
I have never rented from Avis before but I have rented a car with other companies prior to this experience. I expected the Avis employee to walk with me to the vehicle and inspect the vehicle prior to me leaving with the vehicle. That did not happen. I was handed the keys and told I was all set. I walked to the car and noticed that it was dirty inside, leftover papers in the trunk and wrappers in the back door. About half way through my 750 mile commute I received a maintenance required notification on the dashboard for the rear seatbelts. I didn’t use the rear seat belts at all during my trip. The notification continued to prompt every time I would start the car. Just didn’t make me feel safe that all services/recalls weren’t serviced prior to letting a customer take the vehicle as a rental, especially with my lengthy trip.10.0 Wonderful
