How it works

The Zoning Bylaw No. 1466 (s. 5.19) allows short-term rentals in all zones, as an accessory use in a single detached dwelling or as a rental of a sleeping unit in a dwelling unit. A short-term rental is a rental of 30 consecutive days or less, not including a bed and breakfast. The conditions are a valid licence, one onsite parking space, and a building with a valid residential building permit. No patron may stay within the same dwelling for more than 30 days in a calendar year.

The Zoning Bylaw sets no guest or bedroom limit.

Steps

1. Call the District office at 250-395-2434 to confirm which licence applies to you.
2. Apply for a business licence (see business-licence). The fee for Bed and Breakfast / Short Term Rentals is $120, then $80 to renew.
3. Display the licence in the sales or reception area (Business License Bylaw s. 8.16).
4. Check the Province's rules. Each short-term rental unit needs its own registration number under the Province's registry, and the Province's page does not list 100 Mile House on either list as of June 1, 2026. Confirm with the Province's Short-Term Rental Registry.

Good to know

• The Business License Bylaw No. 1407 exempts renting not more than 2 rooms, which may conflict with the zoning requirement for a licence. Check with the District.
• Carrying on business without a licence: a bylaw notice is $125 if paid within 14 days, $250 in 15 to 28 days, and $275 after 28 days. Zoning rows for prohibited or non-permitted uses are $250, $500 and $525. No row names the short-term rental section.
