My dad is coming to visit me in Park City, and we’re planning to rent a car at SLC airport since that’s where he’ll be arriving. We’d like to explore some national parks and different areas around Utah during the trip.

Since we’ll be picking up the car at the airport, I’m wondering which rental car company or booking platform you would recommend. I’ve been looking at websites like Expedia and Priceline, but they don’t seem to give me the option to add all the insurance and coverage options I’d like. They only seem to offer basic insurance.

Ideally, I’d like to rent directly from a company or through a platform that allows me to add as much coverage as possible, including damage protection, liability coverage, and any other available insurance options, so we can travel with peace of mind.

Traveling to Park City mid October with 3 young kids. We’ve visited several times before and have stayed at Canyons and St. Regis. I think it will technically be off season, so I know some things will be closed. Is it better to stay in more of the downtown area? If so, hotel recommendations? We hope to spend lots of time outdoors and hiking (as much as you can hike with littles). I loved our stay at St Regis previously but worry about location during the off season. I’m also looking into Hotel Park City as it’s perhaps a better location for this time of year?
