STR noise complaints in St. Louis County are handled under SLCRO §716.073 (Loud Noise) — plainly audible at 50 feet is presumed a violation — plus the host's Chapter 825 license is at risk for repeated nuisance complaints.
St. Louis County has no STR-specific noise window, but hosts who allow recurring disturbance can lose their Chapter 825 rental license. Many cities (Maplewood, Webster Groves) impose stricter 10 p.m. / 11 p.m. quiet hours that apply equally to STR guests. Hosts are responsible for posting house rules and responding to complaints.
Police citations against occupants under §716.073; host license action for chronic violations; up to $1,000 fine.
