Your local car rental in Tomahawk by The Autohaus

Renting a car in Tomahawk through our local partner The Autohaus solves the immediate need without any long-term commitment. Oscar has more than 250 cars available in Wisconsin, so there's a good chance the right vehicle is ready when you are.
When a rental car makes practical sense in Tomahawk
Tomahawk sits in a part of Wisconsin where getting around depends almost entirely on having a vehicle. Public transit options are limited, and the distances between towns, job sites, and service providers add up quickly. Whether your own car is temporarily out of commission, you're visiting the area and need reliable transportation, or you're taking on a project that requires more hauling capacity than your personal vehicle can handle, a rental gives you exactly what you need for exactly as long as you need it. Every rental through Oscar includes 24/7 roadside assistance, a guaranteed vehicle (the specific car you book is the car you pick up), and 24/7 drop-off. Own coverage and Protected coverage both include up to 250 miles per day, which covers most regional driving without issue. If you already know your trip will push past that, Unlimited Miles is available as a standalone add-on, and pre-booking it costs less than paying per mile at return. Premium coverage includes Unlimited Miles as a standard feature. Booking multiple consecutive days at once applies a consecutive days discount automatically. The full price is shown before you confirm, so you can plan around it. Cancellations more than a week out are free; closer to pickup, standard fees apply.

Coverage options, requirements, and what to bring at pickup
Every rental requires proof of financial security at pickup. You have three coverage options to choose from during booking. Own coverage relies on your personal auto insurance policy and carries the lowest deposit on your card. Protected coverage, the most popular choice, adds collision damage waiver, loss damage waiver, and third-party liability coverage from Oscar, and reduces both the deposit and the deductible compared to Own coverage. Premium coverage includes everything in Protected coverage, plus Personal Effect Coverage and Unlimited Miles, and carries the lowest deductible of the three. The deposit and deductible vary by coverage tier and vehicle type. The exact amounts are shown during booking before you confirm. All drivers must be 22 or older and present a valid driver's license at pickup. Additional drivers can be added during booking and must also be 22 or older with a valid license. Photo ID and a payment card are required. Cash is not accepted. The digital rental agreement is signed during booking, so the handover on-site is quick. Walk around the vehicle with the team, note any existing marks before you drive off, and you're on your way. Return the vehicle at the same fuel level you received it. If your schedule shifts during the rental, reach out early so we can adjust the booking if possible. Return the vehicle within the agreed timeframe to avoid additional charges.
Vehicles for every kind of trip out of Tomahawk
The right vehicle depends on what you're doing and who's coming with you. Oscar's fleet covers a range of situations, from everyday regional driving to hauling, group travel, and everything in between. Availability is shown in real time during booking.
Cars for getting around the region
For most driving in and around Tomahawk, a car handles the job well. The county roads and regional routes here are straightforward, and a compact or midsize car covers them efficiently without the fuel costs that come with a larger vehicle. If you're making runs to a nearby town for supplies, heading to a medical appointment, or simply need a reliable vehicle while yours is being serviced, a car is the practical starting point. Rent a car from $44 per day.
SUVs for more space and road confidence
Wisconsin winters can make road conditions unpredictable, and the rural stretches around Tomahawk don't always get cleared as quickly as main highways. An SUV gives you added ground clearance and stability when conditions aren't ideal. They also make sense when you're traveling with more passengers or luggage than a standard car comfortably fits, or when you're making a longer regional drive and want a more settled ride. Rent an SUV from $57 per day.
Passenger vans for trips where everyone arrives together
When you're coordinating group travel in the Tomahawk area, whether it's a family gathering, a work crew heading to a shared destination, or a sports team making a regional trip, a passenger van keeps everyone in one vehicle. That means one driver, one departure time, and everyone arriving at the same place at the same time. Compared to an SUV, a passenger van seats a larger group comfortably without splitting the party across multiple vehicles. Passenger van rentals start from $66 per day.
Getting around the Tomahawk area and what to expect at return
Tomahawk is a small city in Lincoln County, set in a part of northern Wisconsin where self-reliance and practical transportation go hand in hand. The surrounding area includes lakes, forests, and working land, and the distances to larger regional centers mean that having the right vehicle for the day matters. Whether you're heading to a nearby town for business, managing property in the area, or passing through on a longer trip, a rental car gives you the flexibility to move on your own schedule. Oscar's rating of 4.6 based on 4,450 reviews reflects feedback from real customers who rented for the same practical reasons you're considering. It's a useful data point when you're comparing options and want to know how the service holds up in practice. When you return the vehicle, your security deposit is released in full when you return the car on time and in the same condition you received it. A few things can affect what you owe at return: extra miles beyond the daily allowance, fuel level, cleaning needs, late return, smoking, and pets. All of these are explained during booking so you can plan around them. Traffic and parking violations incurred during the rental are your responsibility. Customer service is available by phone, email, or chat if anything comes up during your rental.
