Short-term rentals (STRs), locally referred to as vacation rentals, have been newly regulated in Perry County, Ohio, with the Logan City Council adopting a set of rules in October 2023 after a year of deliberation. These regulations allow STRs as legal entities, provided property owners comply with specific guidelines, which include zoning standards and required permits. The area primarily accommodates rural cabins and houses, leveraging its scenic landscapes and proximity to attractions like the Hocking Hills State Park, making it appealing to tourists rather than business travelers. The market attracts families and outdoor enthusiasts seeking leisure activities, particularly during peak seasons. The ultimate authority overseeing these regulations is the City of Logan, which now enforces these rules to maintain community standards while supporting the STR market.
