Short-term rentals in Park City are heavily regulated and primarily restricted by zoning. Operators must obtain licenses from the state, county, and city. A mandatory fire inspection and a 24/7 local contact are required. Unlike many resort towns, there is no primary residency requirement.
To host an Airbnb in Park City, you first must confirm your property is in a zone that allows nightly rentals using the city's official map, as most residential areas are excluded. You'll need to get three things in order: a state sales tax ID, a Summit County business license, and then the main Park City Nightly Rental License. A fire inspection is mandatory before you can get your city license. Be sure to include your license number in your online listing and have a local contact who can respond to issues within an hour.
