Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: AirBnB's

[Muriel Kranowski (murielk]

We prohibit short-term (less than 30 days) rental of the whole house or
part of it. Rentals for 60 days or longer require that the new person(s)
receive orientation to the community. There are some requirements relating
to 30-60 day rentals, but those are pretty rare if they happen at all.
