KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Mount Pleasant

  • Using car rentals in Mount Pleasant offers several advantages as opposed to relying solely on public transportation. Unlike public transportation options that may be limited, having a rental car ensures that you can easily access all corners of the region, including nearby attractions and destinations that might be off the beaten path. Furthermore, car rentals in Mount Pleasant will provide you with the flexibility to create a personalized itinerary, explore at your own pace, and make spontaneous stops along the way. A vehicle from Mount Pleasant car rentals will grant you access to the region's top attractions, including the Mt. Pleasant Discovery Museum, Mill Pond Park, and Ziibiwing Center.
  • Some of the airports serving Mount Pleasant include Gerald R. Ford International Airport (GRR), MBS International Airport (MBS), and Capital Region International Airport (LAN). Once you've arrived at GRR, proceed to the car rental counters, located near baggage claim in the main terminal. At MBS, there are car rental counters within the arrivals area, inside the airport terminal. Upon arrival at LAN, you'll get to the car rental counters situated directly in front of baggage claim in the airport terminal.

I booked a car online as I had an out of town doctor appointment on Monday and they called me the next day and told me that despite the system allowing me to make a reservation they actually had no cars available until Tuesday. You need to fix your system.

Pros:

Pickup was fast, nobody was at the desk for drop off.

Cons:

I reserved a large SUV (Tahoe) and got a medium sized SUV (Traverse), was not compensated for the smaller vehicle and had an uncomfortable trip. The “oil change” warning came on right away so I worried about the vehicle maintenance during my entire 11 day trip which was stressful. The vehicle was dirty and smelled like cigarettes. I don’t think I’ll rent from enterprise in the future.

The great part of this is the size of the Saginaw/Midland/Bay City Airport. The car rental counters are on the right side of the small terminal building as you're on your way out, and the cars are just outside the door there. Pick up and drop-off could not have been easier. The man attending the Hertz/Dollar counter was helpful and friendly.

Pros:

Quick return of car. Price.

Cons:

Car cleanliness. Had not been vacuumed or anything. Stains on the seats. Payment was strange and had to wait for the Hertz staff member to get phone approval for the charge from the Hertz rental's bank. It was strange and I was nervous about why it happened for such a small charge.

The couple lower numbers are only lower because rental prices are so high everywhere.

KAYAK

Pros:

Nothing, they either let me reserve a car they didn't have or they gave my reservation to someone else. I never got a car until it was too late and I bought a plane ticket.

Cons:

Maybe save reserved cars for people that make reservations? Or better yet, don't make claims you have zero cars when in fact you do. It's pretty stupid to have cars just for one way and cars just for round trips. I guarantee it's not a lot of people that take cars for one way. You have employees that can take cars to different locations if need be.
