Can I Airbnb in Park City, UT? (2026)

Yes β€” with a permitPermit required

Short-term rentals (called 'nightly rentals' β€” stays under 30 days) are legal in most of Park City, but every unit must pass a Building Department safety inspection and hold a Nightly Rental License from the city's Finance Department, renewed annually (new licenses cost a $149 administrative fee plus $28.74 per bedroom; renewals $17 plus $28.74 per bedroom). The biggest restriction is zoning: the unit must sit in a zone that allows nightly rentals, and the Land Management Code bans them outright in several subdivisions (April Mountain, Mellow Mountain Estates, Meadows Estates 1A/1B, Fairway Meadows, Hidden Oaks at Deer Valley 2-3, Chatham Crossing, West Ridge); combined lodging taxes run about 14.6%. Always confirm current requirements with the city before operating.

What’s required: a Nightly Rental License ($149) is required; occupancy taxes apply; renew annual.
