Short-term rentals (STRs) in Yakima County, Washington, are subject to local regulations and are generally legal, provided that operators comply with specific requirements. In Yakima, these rentals are often referred to as short-term vacation rentals. Hosts must obtain a business license from the City of Yakima, which is renewed annually, and they may also need to apply for a conditional use permit to ensure compliance with zoning regulations. Properties that thrive in this market include rural cabins and urban apartments, catering primarily to tourists and visitors drawn by the area's natural attractions, wineries, and seasonal events. The market experiences a significant influx of tourists, particularly during peak seasons, although there are opportunities for business travelers as well. Regulation of short-term rentals is overseen by the Yakima County Planning Division, which manages zoning laws and compliance.
