Short-Term Rental Regulations
in Glendale, UT

Airbnb listings are allowed in Glendale, UT, but with restrictions. Short-term/vacation rentals are permitted only if they comply with Glendale Town’s Chapter 22 standards (defined as transient lodging in single-family, PUD, or ADU with stays <30 days). Requirements include posting 24/7 local contact and house rules, providing off-street parking, meeting building and safety standards (smoke/CO detectors, fire extinguisher, posted exit plan and maximum occupancy), and compliance with noise, pet, and camping restrictions; certain units (camp trailers/RVs/tents) are prohibited except in licensed private camping areas. 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.
