Short-Term Rental Regulations
in Stanton, MI

Airbnb listings are allowed in Stanton, MI, but with restrictions. Short-term rentals are primarily regulated as 'Bed and Breakfasts,' which must be the operator's principal residence, have 8 or fewer sleeping rooms, and provide meals to transient tenants. These uses are restricted to specific zones (e.g., C-1 Central Business District) and require one off-street parking space per guest room. A permit is required before you can host. 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.
