Short-term rentals (STRs) in Pleasants County, West Virginia, are generally permitted under state regulations but are subject to local ordinances that can vary widely. These rentals are often referred to as “vacation rentals” due to the area's appeal to tourists seeking outdoor recreation and natural beauty. Properties that thrive in this region include rustic cabins and vacation homes, which attract nature enthusiasts and families looking for a getaway. While Pleasants County is influenced by tourism, especially during peak seasons for outdoor activities, it also caters to some business travelers. Regulation of short-term rentals is overseen primarily at the local level, with municipalities implementing their own zoning and registration requirements. This means that hosts must be diligent in understanding both state guidelines—such as the obligation to collect and remit state sales tax—and the specific regulations within their locality. However, there is currently no statewide license specifically for STRs, enabling a somewhat flexible market for owners. For more detailed and updated information about regulations, hosts can refer to the West Virginia State Tax Division website and relevant local government pages.
