Lodging operators in Twain Harte — hotels, motels, cabin rentals, and short-term rentals under 30 days — must collect and remit Tuolumne County's 12% transient occupancy tax to the Tax Collector.
Tuolumne County Code Title 3 imposes a 12% transient occupancy tax (TOT) on rent paid for any lodging stay of 30 days or fewer. The rule covers Dodge Ridge area cabins, Twain Harte Lake rentals, motels along Highway 108, and Airbnb/Vrbo listings. Operators register with the Tuolumne County Tax Collector, collect TOT from guests, and file quarterly returns. Stays of 31 consecutive days or more are exempt. Hosting platforms like Airbnb collect and remit the tax automatically under voluntary collection agreements with the county, but the operator stays responsible for verifying the platform paid.
Failing to register, under-collecting, or pocketing TOT triggers back taxes, 10% penalty, interest, and possible STR permit revocation.
