Bentonville Regulations
STRs are allowed under general business rules; investors need only a standard business license and must meet zoning and building codes, with no citywide caps, STR‑specific fees, or inspections mentioned. The lack of an adopted ordinance and a work group studying future rules adds moderate uncertainty, but current compliance is straightforward.
