Live Oak does not impose minimum-night requirements or annual night caps on short-term rentals, though general rental and nuisance laws still apply to every booking.
Unlike cities such as Austin or New Orleans that cap the number of days non-owner-occupied STRs can rent per year, Live Oak has not adopted annual night limits or minimum-stay requirements. Owners and renters may host any number of nights so long as the use otherwise complies with zoning, occupancy, hotel tax, and noise rules. Hosts should still document stays for the Texas Comptroller, since rentals of 30+ consecutive days become exempt from hotel occupancy tax. If the Live Oak City Council later adopts STR-specific regulations, night caps and two-night minimums similar to Texas peer cities could be imposed.
