Fayetteville Regulations
STRs are explicitly permitted with clear, stepwise permitting and modest fees ($5/$15 town business license, $100 vacation rental permit, health permit by bedroom count). Taxes and annual renewals are manageable but create routine compliance work; caps, occupancy limits, or prohibitive restrictions are not evident, indicating a supportive but somewhat bureaucratic environment for investors.
