Salem caps a non-hosted accessory short-term rental at 95 days per calendar year. Hosted accessory rentals and standard licensed short-term rentals have no annual night limit.
Salem's night limits depend on license type. A non-hosted accessory short-term rental, where the owner rents the whole home while away, may operate a maximum of 95 days per calendar year. A hosted accessory rental, with the owner residing on-site, may be booked without an annual night cap. A standard short-term rental license, treated as commercial lodging, is not capped by nights either. Unincorporated Marion County imposes no annual night cap on rentals; its zoning simply determines whether lodging use is permitted at all.
Exceeding the 95-day non-hosted limit is a license violation and can lead to Salem denying renewal or revoking the license.
