Top Tips for Renting an SUV in Kalispell

  • Opting for Kalispell SUV rentals provides several advantages when exploring this picturesque city in Montana. With an SUV, you'll have the flexibility and space to venture into the stunning outdoors, including Glacier National Park, Flathead Lake, and Whitefish Mountain Resort, all of which are easily accessible with rugged terrain capabilities. SUVs offer enhanced safety on winding mountain roads and variable weather conditions, ensuring a comfortable and secure journey. Additionally, the spacious interiors accommodate larger groups and outdoor gear, making it ideal for families and adventurers.
  • Kalispell offers convenient access to Glacier Park International Airport (FCA), identified by its airport code. Upon arriving at FCA, you'll find car rental desks conveniently located within the terminal building, making it hassle-free to pick up your SUV rental. The airport is well-equipped to handle the needs of travelers, and with an SUV at your disposal, you can quickly hit the road to explore the scenic wonders of Montana's Flathead Valley. Whether you're heading to Glacier National Park, the Flathead Lake region, or other local attractions, renting an SUV from Glacier Park International Airport ensures a smooth and comfortable start to your Kalispell adventure.
  • Driving Kalispell SUV rentals in the city and surrounding areas offers a unique and enjoyable experience. The city itself is relatively small and easy to navigate, with well-maintained roads that generally provide a smooth ride. However, once you venture into the stunning landscapes of Montana, especially in and around Glacier National Park, you should be cautious of cyclists and wildlife, as the region is known for its natural beauty and outdoor activities. Drivers in Kalispell are generally courteous, and traffic congestion is not a significant issue, allowing you to comfortably explore the picturesque surroundings in your SUV rental while enjoying the freedom and flexibility to access remote and scenic destinations.
  • Navigating Kalispell SUV rentals comes with few challenges. While the city itself isn't known for heavy traffic, some routes leading to popular attractions like Glacier National Park can become congested during the peak tourist season, which typically runs from late spring to early fall. The Going-to-the-Sun Road, a must-visit in Glacier National Park, can get particularly crowded. Rush hour traffic in Kalispell, though not as intense as in larger cities, can occur during typical hours, such as morning (around 7 to 9 am) and late afternoon (around 4:30 to 6:30 pm).
  • 25% of our users found an SUV rental in Kalispell for $173 or less
  • Book your SUV rental in Kalispell at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

I wasn't told where to park when I returned the car, so I just chose an open spot. There was no one at the desk to ask questions of afterwards.

It was fine, but when they wash the cars, they need to wash the INSIDE of the windshield. It was very difficult to see at night and we had to wash it ourselves for safety driving especially at night.

I booked through Kayak and upon arrival at my destination they informed me they didn't accept the payment type I carry. “If you had booked through our website you would have known that.” I was really frustrated and thankful another company had me covered and even price-matched so I wasn't bent over a barrel due to the situation.

I thought the staff at the desk were extremely efficient, friendly and accommodating. I don't usually respond to these things but they were an absolute delight. Everything felt quick and not corporate. I have ZERO memories of any other rental car interactions and, weirdly, I thought these guys were awesome.

Pros:

dollar rental was very friendly and helpful. When our flight was delayed Avis would not assure us that we would have a suv to rent.

Cons:

If someone is willing to pay for a suv even though they can't pick it up when planned, they should make sure the suv is there when they get there.

Cons:

I asked for a full size car, was given a compact SUV, was told that was an upgrade. Negative, the Chevy Malibu I requested has more cubic square feet over all than that compact SUV. We had a wedding party for our daughter's wedding and wanted the space, but I could barely get our luggage in this compact, much less more people with room.

KAYAK

Pros:

at drop off, I explained that the gas tank was FULL. After reviewing the bill before boarding my flight, I discovered that I was charged for the cost of $97 for fuel. I had to go back to the agent (behind the security) and she corrected it. I find this annoying as it is a basic component of checking out a rental car. Other attendants go over the statement LINE by LINE. Not at this station. Peculiar, With kind regards, Roger van den Bergh

Cons:

Please pay attention at checkout.

Pros:

Very friendly staff, no line and easy rental process.

Cons:

I wasn't sure how to return the vehicle - had to take keys to the desk unlike other rental experiences where someone is there waiting to check you in or you leave the keys in the car. Signage would have helped as we were in a rush.

Pros:

I liked the rental once I got one.

Cons:

The first rental not properly working, it wouldn’t start up right away, the car had several dents and scratches on the car, it also smelled like smoke. When I made the reservation counter aware, they acted as if there wasn’t a problem. Business as usual.
