In Harrison County, Mississippi, short-term rentals (STRs), often referred to locally as vacation rentals, are legal and operate under specific regulations outlined in the Unified Development Code. Each property owner must obtain a Short-Term Rental Permit and a Harrison County Tax Privilege Business License to operate legally. STRs are particularly prevalent in areas like Gulfport and Biloxi, where a mix of urban apartments near the coast and cabins/rural homes thrive, catering primarily to tourists drawn by the region's beaches and casinos. The market tends to focus more on tourism, especially with seasonal peaks tied to summer vacations and special events, though there is also a growing segment of business travelers. Regulation and compliance are overseen by the Harrison County Board of Supervisors and the Department of Code Administration.
