Short-term rentals (STRs), often referred to as vacation rentals in Columbia, Illinois, are regulated under new local ordinances recently approved by the City Council. These regulations govern the operation of rentals through platforms such as Airbnb and Vrbo, establishing specific standards and permitting processes that must be followed. Currently, the market primarily supports single-family homes, with a particular interest in properties well-suited for vacationers, as Columbia is located near tourist attractions. The majority of STRs cater to tourists, especially during peak summer months, although some business travelers also use these accommodations year-round, given the community's proximity to nearby urban centers. The Columbia Planning and Zoning Commission oversees enforcement and compliance with these regulations, which include limits on rental days and operational requirements specifically designed to balance residential needs with visitor accommodations.
