KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Lakewood

  • There is so much to see in Lakewood, from lakes to parks. The best way to explore this beautiful town is by using a hire car. You do not have to deal with the hassle of public transport, such as time limitations, as hiring a car gives you full control over your experience. You can drive a hire car in Lakewood to explore Lakewood Historical Museum, about 6.7 km (4.2 miles) away, Aquarium of the Pacific, 18.4 km (11.4 miles) away, and the Battleship IOWA Museum, 25.6 km (15.9 miles) away from Lakewood.
  • If you fly to Lakewood, you will land at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), about 83 km (52 miles) away. Among transit options provided by the airport, the most convenient is a hire car if you plan to explore Lakewood and its surroundings. An AirTrain takes passengers to Station P3, where Lakewood car hire agencies are located. The car hire companies at the airport include Budget, Dollar, Avis, Alamo, Enterprise, Thrifty, Hertz, Payless, SIXT, and National. These companies may have different policies, such as the drop-off policy. Ensure you familiarise yourself with them to avoid inconveniences.
  • Sometimes, you’ll find using your car hire in Lakewood to be a little challenging. There are jaywalking laws that prevent pedestrians from crossing roads outside marked areas. However, drivers from this town have been ranked among the worst, so ensure you are always alert when driving. Additionally, there are limited parking spaces in some parts of the town, which forces people to get creative, with some parking on pavements or corners. This may result in accidents when driving through the town.
  • During peak hours in Lakewood, roads can get congested, causing delays and inconveniences. Rush hours in this town occur between 07:00 to 09:30 and 16:00 to 18:30 on weekdays. The 1-70 and 1-25 can get really bad, even on weekends. You can avoid traffic jams by planning your trip and using your car hire in Lakewood during off-peak hours. If you must travel during rush hour, consider alternative routes and backstreets.
  • Medium rental cars in Lakewood are around 51% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended to drive in Lakewood?

    Consider a compact car if you are in Lakewood for a short solo trip. Small cars are better than larger cars, easy to manoeuvre, and can fit in tight parking spaces. However, if you plan on exploring the rough parts of Colorado, a larger car with stability will be the best. It will also provide sufficient space if you have a lot of luggage. Similarly, if you travel during the rainy season, typically between January to March and November to December, you need a big car for its traction. This is because the roads can get quite slick.

    Since Lakewood is a home-rule city, you are expected to maintain a speed limit of 40.2 km/h (25 mph) when using car hire in Lakewood within built-up areas.

The limit in winding and narrow roads comes down to 32.2 km/h (20 mph) to minimise accidents. Ensure to follow these limits to avoid getting into legal trouble.

  • Where are the best places to park in Lakewood?

    You can easily find parking spaces in Lakewood that are convenient and secure. Keep in mind that the city of Lakewood prohibits overnight parking behind commercial centres or city parks. West End Garage provides free parking, while RTD Lakewood-Wadsworth Station Park & Ride charges $4 (£3.12) for 2h. Remember that the prices may change depending on traffic and availability.

Your staff was excellent; very friendly and knowledgeable. The car I was assigned had a few problems. The car itself was very nice however the sunroof wasn’t seated properly and it caused a chilly draft to the backseat passengers. I wouldn’t touch the switch in case it opened and then wouldn’t close. You could see the problem from the roof once you knew the problem existed. Your staff acknowledged and made a small compensation for the problem. Also, the cruise control wasn’t working. This is a function that I use on freeway driving. Overall, I like Enterprise and will definitely use Enterprise in the future if needed.
