A Short Term Rental (STR) is a rental of residential property for a lease term of thirty days or less. The County currently requires all Short Term Rental operators obtain both a Business License and Transient Occupancy Tax Certificate from the Department of Finance, and comply with operating requirements established by the Community Development Agency.
The County is currently working on a Short Term Rental Ordinance Update to improve the availability of middle- and lower-income housing, while maintaining access to economic opportunities, services and activities in the unincorporated areas of the County and end the moratorium in West Marin. Follow the links below for more information about Short Term Rentals in the unincorporated areas of the County.
