Renting has the hassle of dropping off and picking up vehicle @ each end plus the extra time to do this and fill out paper work
I would drive my own car.
Why bother??? Take the Cruise Connection Bus and relax in knowing that you will have immediate access to the port. Surely a neighbor will take you to the pickup point for the bus. We use it all the time and it is a most relaxing trip without worry with driving and being tied up in traffic and exhausted both mentally and physically upon reaching the port and returning home. Do yourself a favor, take the coach.
