Fort Collins

Short-term rentals in Fort Collins are permitted only in specific zones and generally require the property to be the owner's primary residence in residential areas.

To host an STR in Fort Collins, your property must be in an allowed zone, and in most residential areas, it must be your primary home where you live at least 9 months a year. You must obtain both a Sales and Lodging Tax License and an STR License, and you are required to provide dedicated off-street parking for guests. Rentals in multi-family buildings with 3 or more units (like most condos and apartments) and ADUs are strictly prohibited.
