Zoning & Conditions
STRs are capped at 17 units town-wide and require a Special Use Permit (SUP) only available to owners who have held the property for at least 18 months. Occupancy is set by the SUP, a minimum of two off-street parking spaces is required, and units must post a visible notice with 24-hour contact info and safety rules.
How to Obtain a Permit
1) Submit a Town-provided SUP application including proof of 18-month ownership, 24-hour contact info for two Park County residents, and a valid Town business license. 2) Pay the licensing fee and undergo a Town inspection of the premises to verify code compliance. 3) Permits are valid for one year and require renewal 30-60 days before expiration, provided the unit was rented at least 60 days in the previous year.
