Can I drive in Houghton Lake with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license from the U.S, you may be required to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before starting the home process. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your current valid driver's license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 or older in many states in order to rent a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, and with the car rental company before you go to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don't forget to read the fine print before you leave the lot so you can avoid any unnecessary charges. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, use car ferries or traverse certain types of rugged terrain with your rental car. Please read all the rules and regulations before you book!
