Short-Term Rental Notes

✓ STR Allowed — Township Approval Required

Short-term rentals are allowed in Sunny Point at the community level, subject to the community's own rental rules. Paupack Township requires a township short-term rental permit, and properties in the R-1 residential district, which includes much of Sunny Point, must also obtain Conditional Use approval, which involves a public hearing. The township also asks whether a property operated as a short-term rental before August 22, 2023. Buyers should confirm the zoning and rental status of the specific property with Paupack Township and the community before purchasing.

STR eligibility, HOA fees, and community rules change frequently. Always verify current status directly with the HOA and relevant township before purchase. Information on this page is provided for general reference only and does not constitute legal or financial advice.

STR Investor Notes

Lake Wallenpaupack access, a private boat launch and powered boating make Sunny Point a strong summer draw for guests.
A new short-term rental on an R-1 lot needs Conditional Use approval and a township permit. Allow time for the hearing and don't count on rental income until approval is granted.
A property marketed as an established rental should come with documentation of its township status. Don't assume approval carries over with the sale.
The community sets its own rules for renters, including group and noise limits. Review them before marketing a property.

STR allowed by the community, subject to Paupack Township approval. STR information current as of September 2026. Verify with Paupack Township and the community before purchase.
