Short-term rentals (STRs) in Throckmorton County, Texas, are often referred to as "vacation rentals." The regulations concerning these rentals are minimal at the state level, allowing local jurisdictions to set their own rules. Currently, there is no specific county ordinance governing STRs in Throckmorton County. This flexibility has led to a thriving market for vacation cabins and rural properties that attract both tourists and visitors, particularly those drawn by the natural beauty of the area. The demand for such rentals typically stems from leisure travelers rather than business travelers, as the county does not have a prominently developed business sector. Property owners are generally required to register for state hotel occupancy tax collection but do not need a specific operational license. The county government, including local officials at the Commissioner's Court, is responsible for any regulations that may arise, and for further information, the official website of Throckmorton County can be consulted at Throckmorton County Government Website.
