In Cecil County, Maryland, short-term rentals (STRs) are informally known as vacation rentals and are regulated but generally permitted under local laws. The county allows STRs, primarily catering to tourists looking for unique accommodations, such as cabins in rural areas or homes near popular attractions like the Chesapeake Bay. This market environment leans heavily towards vacationers, as the county's scenic landscapes and outdoor activities attract visitors rather than serving a robust business travel niche. The Cecil County government oversees STR regulations through various permits to ensure health and safety compliance, although specific licensing requirements may differ by municipality within the county. Reynolds of local regulations and best practices can be acquired from the Cecil County Office of Housing.
