Acadia, ME

Acadia, ME does not appear to have a city-level STR ordinance in our records, and we have no record of a Maine statewide preemption law governing short-term rentals. In the absence of known state preemption, local rules (if any are later adopted) would generally apply, so you should contact Acadia's local authority directly to confirm any city or county requirements that may affect your property. On the tax side, Maine applies a 9% state lodging tax to short-term stays, which you are responsible for collecting and remitting unless your booking platform handles it on your behalf. Always verify current requirements with local officials before listing.
