One of the keys to success in the short term rental (STR) market is understanding the comprehensive STR or vacation rental regulations of the city or town where you plan to invest. Zoning restrictions, registration, permit or licensing requirements, and taxes vary widely. Search to see how your city or town may be affected.
Garrett County Maryland, covering Deep Creek Lake, MD and the Deep Creek Watershed, has a comprehensive set of regulations for vacation rentals, called Transient Vacation Rentals Units (TRSUs), by an Ordinance passed in 2006. The County requires a zoning permit and registration for all short term rentals. For information and the links to the applications click the link below.
