Private car services in Winter Park Colorado
We provide private car services along with our rental car service. We rent cars made for Colorado from the Denver Airport, however can also offer private car services from the Denver Airport to other points in Colorado. So if you don’t want to rent a car from Denver Airport with us, you can always use our private car service too. It is basicly a way for you to choose how you want to start your vacation. Some people love driving and some people just want to sit back and relax.
Why use our private car service
Getting to Winter Park from the airport can be a bit of a haul if your not used to mountain driving. The roads are twisty and steep especially when you go over Berthoud Pass. I know a lot of people get nervous about driving in the snow and ice which is totally understandable. Our private car service is perfect for that becuase you get a driver who knows the roads really well. You can just hop in the back seat and look at the view without worrying about sliding around.
When you book a private ride with us it is door to door service. We pick you up right at the airport curb and drop you off right at your condo or hotel in Winter Park. You dont have to worry about parking or finding your way around a new town in the dark. It is super convenient for families too because you dont have to drag your luggage across a icy parking lot.
Our vehicles for the private service
We use the same high quality vehicles for our private service that we use for our rentals. So you are riding in a nice SUV or truck that is comfortable and safe. We keep them really clean and they have plenty of room for all your gear. Speaking of gear we know you probably have skis and snowboards and big bags. Our cars are set up to handle all of that stuff no problem.
We also have rental cars made for Colorado
If you do decide you want to drive yourself we have an awesome fleet of rental cars available at the Denver airport. The big difference with us is that we rent cars made for Colorado. What I mean by that is we dont just give you some generic sedan that is going to get stuck in two inches of snow. Our rentals are set up specifically for the mountains.
One of the biggest things we offer is snow tires. I can’t tell you how important this is. Most rental companies just have “all season” tires which are ok for city driving but not great for the passes. We put real snow tires on our cars so you have actual traction when it counts. It makes a huge difference in safety and confidence when you are driving on I-70.
Racks and boxes included
Another cool thing about our rental cars is that we include the accessories you actually need. We have ski racks and roof boxes available so you dont have to jam your skis inside the car across the seats. It is so much more comfortable when the gear is on the roof. The roof boxes are great for extra luggage too if you brought way to much stuff which happens to the best of us.
In the summer we also have bike racks. Colorado has amazing biking and we want you to be able to bring your bikes or rent some and take them to the trails. We have hitch racks and roof racks depending on the vehicle. Most big rental companies charge you extra for all this stuff or they just dont have it at all. With us it is part of the package because we know that is why you are coming here.
Comparing the two options
I know it can be hard to decide if you want to rent a car or just get a ride. Both are good options it really just depends on what kind of trip you are planning. If you plan on just staying in Winter Park and skiing every day you might not need a car once you get there because the bus system is pretty good. In that case the private car service is probably the way to go. But if you want to explore other towns or go out to dinner a lot then having your own rental car gives you more freedom.
| Feature | Renting a Winter Wagon | Private Car Service |
|---|---|---|
| Driver | You drive | We drive |
| Tires | Snow tires included | Snow tires included |
| Gear Storage | Racks and boxes available | Plenty of room for gear |
| Stress | You handle the roads | You relax and nap |
| Flexibility | Total freedom to go anywhere | Point to point service |
I think for a lot of people the stress factor is the main thing. Driving over the pass in a blizzard is not for everyone. If you are from a warm place and havent driven on snow much it can be pretty scary. Our drivers do it every day so they are used to it and know how to handle the vehicle safely.
How the private transfer works
It is really simple to set up. You just let us know your flight info and we track it to make sure we are there when you land. Even if your flight is delayed we will wait for you. Once you get your bags you just meet us at the curb and we load everything up. Then you can just chill for the drive. It takes about an hour and a half to get to Winter Park depending on traffic and weather.
We can also make stops if you need to. A lot of people like to stop at the grocery store in Denver before heading up the mountain because the groceries are cheaper down there. Just let us know ahead of time and we can plan for a stop. It is way easier than trying to go shopping once you get to the resort and realize you forgot milk.
Groups and families
If you are traveling with a big group the private service is awesome. We have big vehicles that can fit everyone comfortably. It is a lot of fun to all be in the same car getting excited for the trip. Plus you dont have to split up into multiple rental cars and try to follow each other on the highway which is always a pain.
For families with kids it is a lifesaver. You dont have to worry about car seats or navigation while trying to keep the kids happy. You can just focus on them and let us handle the driving. We can provide car seats too if you need them just ask us when you book.
Whether you choose to rent a car or use our private service you are getting a local experience. We arent some huge faceless corporation. We are skiers and snowboarders who live here and love Colorado. We want you to have a safe and fun trip. That is why we put so much effort into having the right tires and racks and gear. We know what it takes to have a good time in the mountains.
Our rental cars from the Denver airport are really the best way to get around if you want to drive yourself. The combination of 4 wheel drive and snow tires and roof boxes just makes everything easier. You dont have to stress about whether the car can make it up the driveway or if your skis will fit. We take the guess work out of it.
And if you go with the private car service you get that same attention to detail. Our drivers are friendly and professional and they want to help you start your vacation right. They can give you tips on where to eat or which runs are skiing the best. It is like having a friend drive you up.
So just to wrap it up we offer private car services along with our rental car service. We rent cars made for Colorado from the Denver Airport however can also offer private car services from the Denver Airport to other points in Colorado. So if you don’t want to rent a car from Denver Airport with us, you can always use our private car service too.
We hope you choose us for your next trip to Winter Park. We promise to take good care of you whether you are behind the wheel or riding in the back. Let us know if you have any questions about the tires or the racks or anything else. We are here to help.
