Greensboro limits STR guest parking to one vehicle per bedroom rented. Properties follow the same parking rules as the underlying dwelling.
Under the Greensboro short-term rental ordinance (LDO Section 30-7-1.2), parking for short-term rentals is limited to one vehicle per bedroom rented. A short-term rental has the same parking rights as the dwelling unit where it is located and is subject to any relevant community standards normally applied to the dwelling unit. This means guest parking must use the property's existing driveway, garage, or designated off-street spaces and cannot overflow into areas that would otherwise be prohibited. The ordinance does not create additional parking exemptions for STR guests beyond what a regular resident would have. On-street parking, if allowed in the neighborhood, is available under the same rules that apply to all residents. Properties in areas with HOA parking restrictions must comply with those covenants as well. The parking limit helps prevent neighborhood disruption from excessive guest vehicles.
Parking violations are enforced as part of the overall STR ordinance. Two or more verified ordinance violations within 365 days may result in permit revocation. General parking violations (blocking driveways, fire hydrants, etc.) are subject to standard city parking enforcement and towing.
