Logan Lake is on the Province's exempt list, so the provincial principal residence requirement does not apply here. Provincial registration still does: the Province requires registration for rentals of fewer than 90 consecutive days, even where no local licence is needed.\n\nA draft Zoning Bylaw 964, 2026 would prohibit short-term rentals in all zones, but it is not adopted. Ask the Municipal Office for its status.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Register with the Province as a host.\n2. If you run a bed and breakfast with 3 or more rooms, get a District business licence under [Bylaw 718](https://loganlake.civicweb.net/document/3878/) (Accommodation Rentals, for R5, C1, C3, C4 zones or a bed and breakfast).\n3. Display the licence, as the bylaw requires.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- Bed and breakfast limits: 2 let bedrooms and 5 persons (R1, R2); 3 and 8 (AR, ER); 5 and 13 (RR). It must be inside the dwelling, with one sign of 0.2 m², breakfast only to registered guests, and one outside employee.\n- Parking: 1 space per let room on the same parcel, hard-surfaced.\n- Fines: no business licence is a $100 ticket and failing to display a licence is $50. Zoning tickets are $250 for development contrary to the bylaw, $100 for contravening zoning regulations and $50 for conditions of use. Court conviction carries a penalty of not less than $5,000.","sources":[{"url":"https://loganlake.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Zoning-675-2010-Consolidated.pdf","title":"Zoning Bylaw 675, 2010 (PDF, consolidated to April 18, 2023), District of Logan Lake","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://loganlake.ca/business-investment/business-licenses/","title":"Business Licenses, District of Logan Lake","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://loganlake.civicweb.net/document/3878/","title":"Business License and Regulations Bylaw 718, 2013 (PDF), District of Logan Lake","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://loganlake.civicweb.net/document/4408/","title":"Ticketing of Bylaw Offences Bylaw 660, 2010 (PDF), District of Logan Lake","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/housing-tenancy/short-term-rentals/principal-residence-requirement","title":"Principal residence requirement, Province of BC (updated Sept 21, 2026)","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://loganlake.ca/your-municipality/planning-development/","title":"Planning & Development : District of Logan Lake","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 6 of 6 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/logan-lake/short-term-rental/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/logan-lake/short-term-rental.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/logan-lake/short-term-rental.json"}}
