General Information about Tahoe Short Term Rentals, also known as Vacation Home Rentals.
There are five counties that regulate short-term rentals, each has its own restrictions and requirements. Most of the counties have caps on the number of STR permits. Washoe County (Incline Village) is currently the only regulation zone with no cap (in the Tahoe Basin) on the total number of permits. Washoe County has a clear path for homeowners to be permitted. Below is detailed information on application processes, total permit caps, operating requirements, restrictions, and exceptions to caps. Placer County and the City of Truckee will be opening up applications in the coming weeks and days. A few of the counties and cities in the Tahoe basin have started collecting transient tax. It is designed to be built into the price of the rental and paid by guests. Below are links to information on individual Counties and Cites. There is a large amount of detail due to the complexity of these ever-changing regulations.
