Colorado Springs, CO Short-Term Rentals: Noise Rules (2026)

a requires that 'all short-term tenants shall comply with all applicable noise, housing, public health, fire, and safety ordinances of the City,' so a rental's guests are bound by the City's general nighttime and residential noise limits just as any resident would be: a violation there is enforced under the City's standard noise code, not a separate STR schedule. ' That bars an owner from marketing or permitting the property for a wedding, reception, or similar large gathering regardless of whether the event itself stays within decibel limits.

g, whenever a short-term tenant occupies the unit, the owner or a designated local contact person must be available at all times to respond to complaints about the condition or operation of the rental, or the conduct of tenants, within one hour, and must keep that contact information updated within three days of any change. e, giving neighbors and responding officers a direct line to the responsible party rather than routing every noise complaint through the City.
