What do you think about Short-Term Rentals?

The Town of Gravenhurst is reviewing the usage of Short-Term Rentals (STR) across the municipality. Although there are many ways to define what an STR is, it typically can be defined as being when all or part of a dwelling is rented out on short term basis in exchange for payment. STR's are often marketed for rent through online platforms, cottage rental agencies and buy and sell forums. For the purposes of this review, an STR does not include commercial accommodations such as hotel or motel units.

Through comprehensive community input, the Town is looking to gain an understanding of any STR issues and opportunities across the municipality. All feedback received will be collected and a summary of the results will be provided to Council for consideration on how to move forward with addressing this type of accommodation.
