There are no courtesy cars available at KRAS, but there is a bus you can take.

We were however, able to rent a 4x4 Trailblazer from VFRCAR.com, 800-481-2624.

You can also rent a 4 or 6 seat golf cart 1 block away or delivered if used overnight! 361-217-0703

No rental car companies are currently available - including VFRCARS as mentioned in an earlier comment. I recommend Coastal Ed's golf cart rentals, they'll do an airport dropoff/pickup, 361-749-7001.
