Short-Term Rental Regulations
in Riverside, WY

Airbnbs are effectively legal in Riverside, WY because there are no specific short-term rental regulations on the books. No municipal short-term rental (STR) ordinance, permit page, or STR-specific guidance was found on the Town of Riverside official site nor on the Carbon County planning/zoning pages; therefore STRs are not governed by a city-level STR program. Operators remain subject to applicable county land-use/zoning rules and state tax or lodging laws. Operators should still verify HOA rules, state-level requirements, and any tax-collection obligations. See the official source linked on this page for full requirements. Last verified 2026-05-14.
