Maple Grove, MN Short-Term Rentals: Parking Rules (2026)

Maple Grove's published short-term rental program does not impose a stand-alone, number-of-spaces parking requirement specific to short-term rentals. Instead, the city enforces its city codes, fire codes, zoning codes, building codes, and the 2018 International Property Maintenance Code against licensed rentals, and the annual inspection covers the building exterior and the property as a whole, including accessory structures. Parking on the property and on adjacent streets remains subject to Maple Grove's general regulations, including the city's traffic and parking ordinance and any winter or seasonal parking rules that apply throughout the city. The rental ordinance's purpose includes preserving the quality and character of neighborhoods and ensuring tenants can pursue the quiet enjoyment of life free from nuisances; parking that creates a nuisance or blocks access can be addressed through code enforcement. Because no short-term-rental-specific parking ratio is published in the ordinance, operators should not advertise more vehicles than can be lawfully accommodated on-site under the property's driveway and garage capacity, and should direct guests to follow posted street-parking rules. We did not find a code section setting a fixed guest-vehicle count for short-term rentals; operators should confirm any zoning or off-street parking standards for their property with the city's Community and Economic Development department.
