Short-term rentals (STRs), commonly referred to as Airbnb or vacation rentals, are legal in Kankakee County, Illinois, although they are subject to specific regulations. The City of Kankakee has implemented a rental licensing system that requires property owners to obtain an operating license for their rentals. This includes a fee of $65 for a single unit and $11 for each additional unit, with inspections mandated every two years to ensure safety and compliance with local health regulations. STR properties in Kankakee primarily consist of single-family homes and some multi-unit buildings, with particular popularity for rentals situated in urban settings due to their proximity to local attractions and business areas. Although Kankakee is not predominantly a tourist destination, it does attract some visitors, including business travelers and those attending local events, which creates a modest market for short-term accommodation. The Planning and Zoning Department of the City of Kankakee is responsible for overseeing these regulations.
