Cloudcroft, NM does not appear to have a city-level STR ordinance in our data, and we have no record of a New Mexico statewide preemption statute governing short-term rentals. That means your operation is not bound by a specific local ordinance we can point to, but you remain responsible for collecting and remitting New Mexico's gross receipts tax, which starts at 5% and varies by location. Because local rules can change and may not appear in our dataset, contact the Village of Cloudcroft and Otero County directly to confirm any zoning, permitting, or lodging tax obligations before hosting.
