Short-term rentals, often referred to locally as "vacation rentals," are increasingly popular in Catawba County, North Carolina, particularly around the Lake Norman area, where demand from tourists is significant due to the area's recreational opportunities. These rentals are legal, but there are regulatory measures in place that require owners to secure zoning permits, which dictate occupancy limits of two guests per bedroom plus two additional guests and necessitate off-street parking provisions. Popular rental types include cabins in rural settings and lakeside homes, catering primarily to tourists, especially during peak seasons and events, though there is some appeal for business travelers as well. The local government authority overseeing these regulations is the Catawba County Planning and Parks Department, which manages the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) that outlines specific rules for short-term rentals.
