Parking overnight near bus station in Sumter Landing
 

Do they tow your car if it's parked for 5 days at the parking lot near the bus station at Sumter Landing? I don't want to do the door to door pick up since they pick you up 3-4 hours before your flight.

Another question, can anyone recommend a reliable car service?

Not sure about the parking, but the most reliable car service we have used, is me driving an Enterprise one way rental to airport.

How much does that typically cost?

We haven't rented for several years now, and would imagine a whole lot more than we ever paid. Their website should show latest prices.

The Villages Car Rental | Enterprise Rent-A-Car

If renting a car, remember that Enterprise in Lake Sumter Landing and Hertz in Spanish Springs are closed on Saturday afternoon and all day Sunday and won't allow returns at these times.

Airport rides
 

UBER. Groome did not show up to take me to airport. They did not answer phone or hung up on me while I was waiting. Uber picks you up for between $74 and $90. That’s from orange blossom. If you have 2 people it’s cheaper than bus. Door to door service drops you at your airline

I use Groome. Never had an issue. I use the door to door service. Mu flights are always early so I can nap and usually in the middle for pickups and drop offs....

Parking at Brownwood Hotel is no longer allowed, I just called the hotel and asked yesterday.

I was told the same thing by Groome when I made my reservation.

Ask the question of drivers on Next Door and you will get plenty of answers for personal drivers that pick you up.

I wouldn’t leave my car parked down there for even one night. Too much of a temptation for thieves. Can’t a friend or neighbor drop you off to get the bus there?

Just use Uber or Lyft

Parking overnight is not a good idea, especially if you leave your reg. or insurance card in your car, with a garage door opener..... a thief can simpley go to your house and gain access in a few minutes.

Groome's website says not to long term park in LSL as it can be towed.

For an additional $15 they will pick you up at your house but since Groome took over I heard more bad than good things about their reliability.

Uber during busy times can be hit or miss and don't rely on their advanced bookings.
