KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in El Dorado Hills
- There are several advantages to renting cheap car rentals in El Dorado Hills. Firstly, the city is a suburban area and relies heavily on private transportation. Renting a car gives you the freedom to explore the surrounding attractions at your own pace. Public transportation options in the area are also limited, and the bus service is infrequent. Having El Dorado Hills car rentals will also allow you to venture out to the nearby nature reserves and parks, such as Folsom Lake State Recreation Area. These parks are home to beautiful trails, lookout points, and picnic areas, and are best reached by car.
- Sacramento International Airport (SMF) is the closest airport to El Dorado Hills as it is located approximately 30 miles away. The rental car offices at SMF are located in a consolidated rental car terminal, which is accessible by a shuttle bus that picks up passengers at both terminals.

The airport only has one major rental car agency, which is located on site and does not require a shuttle service to reach.

Cons:
The SUV I reserved was not there. Waited three and a half hours for resolution. Nothing. Couldn’t get one alternate vehicle because it needed an oil change. Couldn’t get a van because it needed registration renewal but it had permanent tags. Manager called corporate and person who could sign off didn’t return four phone messages in those three and a half hours. Left very upset with no vehicle.10,0 Wonderful
