In Iron County, Michigan, short-term rentals (STRs), commonly referred to as "AirBnBs," are subject to local regulations that vary by municipality. As of now, STRs are legal but regulated, with ongoing discussions in local governance about establishing clearer guidelines to mitigate issues like noise, traffic, and the impact on housing availability. Popular types of properties for these rentals include rustic cabins and homes in rural settings that appeal to tourists year-round, especially for outdoor activities and nature tourism. The area primarily caters to tourists rather than business travelers, with an emphasis on weekend getaways and seasonal visits. The Iron County Board is responsible for the regulation of STRs, aiming to harmonize local community needs and tourism growth. For further details, visit Iron County Reporter and Michigan Legislature.
