HostReadyTourist Rooming Houses (short-term rentals) in Vilas County require an annual permit from the Zoning & Planning Department, though TRHs located in the City of Eagle River are exempt from the County Zoning Permit requirement but still require a license from the Public Health Department and any necessary permits from the City. TRHs also require a sellers permit from the Wisconsin Department of Revenue and may require payment of room tax. Permits are non-transferable and expire if the property changes ownership.
