Rock County has no STR insurance mandate, and Wisconsin sets none statewide. Standard homeowner policies often exclude commercial rental use, so hosts should carry short-term rental or landlord coverage. Some cities may require proof of liability insurance.
Neither Rock County nor Wisconsin imposes a short-term rental insurance requirement. The state tourist rooming house license and Wis. Stat. 66.1014 do not mandate coverage. However, ordinary homeowner policies frequently exclude commercial or transient-rental activity, so operators are strongly advised to obtain short-term-rental or landlord liability insurance to cover guest injuries and property damage. Marketplace platforms may offer host protection, but coverage limits and exclusions vary. Individual cities, villages, or towns can require proof of liability insurance as a licensing condition, so confirm any local requirement with your municipal clerk.
No county penalty exists. Operating without required coverage risks uninsured liability claims, and failing a city's proof-of-insurance license condition can block or revoke the local license.
