Short-Term Rental Regulations
in Fremont County, CO

Airbnb listings are allowed in Fremont County, CO, but with restrictions. Fremont County defines 'SHORT-TERM RENTAL' as the rental of a dwelling or lodging unit for less than 30 continuous days; short-term rentals are governed by the County’s zoning and land-use permitting framework (Allowed Use Business Permit, Conditional Use Permit or Special Review Use) and are subject to site, utility (water/sewer) and notice requirements where a land-use permit is required. No STR-specific occupancy, host-presence, nightly-minimum, platform-registration, or numerical cap language is stated on the cited County ordinance pages. These rules apply to all short-term rental platforms (Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, etc.) — not just Airbnb specifically. See the official source linked on this page for full requirements.
