Rental rules

Can you rent out a home in Baywood?

The Town of Sugar Creek allows them with a license. Baywood's own rules aren't published, so we check them before you buy.

Town of Sugar Creek

County license, one rental per 7 days
  • Walworth County zoning, which covers the Town, allows one rental per 7-day period: a new guest can't arrive within 7 days of the last one.
  • A Walworth County license ($500 the first year, $200 to renew) and a state tourist rooming house license are also required.
  • Occupancy is capped by what the septic system is sized for or the state license, whichever is lower.
  • We found no Town of Sugar Creek rental ordinance or room tax published online (November 2026). Ask the Town before you buy.

Confirm with: Town of Sugar Creek Clerk and Walworth County Land Use and Resource Management
