Short-term rentals (STRs) in Walterboro, South Carolina, are generally allowed, however, they are subject to local regulations that vary based on the property type and zoning. Commonly referred to as "vacation rentals," these properties often include single-family homes and cabins, capitalizing on the area's natural beauty and appeal to outdoor enthusiasts. The local market primarily caters to tourists, particularly those exploring the Lowcountry region, though it also sees visitors traveling for business and events. As there is no statewide regulation specifically governing STRs, local government, led by the Colleton County Zoning Administration, sets the rules, which typically require property owners to obtain the necessary permits and comply with zoning requirements for short-term rentals.
