Kent County sets no annual limit on the number of nights a property may be rented short-term. Any night cap comes from the city or township. Michigan's state use tax and the county lodging tax apply from the first taxable night.
Kent County imposes no cap on how many nights per year a home may operate as a short-term rental; night limits, if any, are a municipal choice made through zoning. Some Michigan cities cap rental days or limit STRs to a share of nights per year, but that is decided locally, not countywide. For tax purposes, note that the county's 8% lodging excise tax and Michigan's 6% state use tax apply to transient stays under 30 consecutive days, and Kent County exempts only stays of 30 or more consecutive days. Verify any per-year night cap with the specific municipality's ordinance.
Any night-cap enforcement is municipal; exceeding a city limit can lead to civil-infraction fines and loss of a required STR license.
