Market Overview
Orange Park is a small suburban town in Clay County on the west bank of the St. Johns River, functioning as a bedroom community within the Jacksonville metro area rather than a standalone tourist destination, with a population of 9,055. Overnight lodging demand is driven largely by proximity to Jacksonville, Naval Air Station Jacksonville, medical facilities, and Interstate 295, rather than by destination tourism; local draws include Clarke House Park, the Thrasher-Horne performing arts center, and St. Johns River boating and fishing.

Short-Term Rental Regulations
Short-term rentals are legal in Orange Park. Florida statute 509.032(7)(b) preempts local governments from banning vacation rentals or capping their duration or frequency, absent an ordinance predating June 1, 2011, and no Orange Park-specific STR ordinance was found. To operate legally, an owner must hold a state DBPR Vacation Rental license, required when renting a whole dwelling for under 30 days more than three times per year, collect and remit Florida sales tax, and obtain a Town of Orange Park local business tax receipt; home-based operations also require a Home Occupation Disclosure and a fire inspection.
Combined lodging taxes total roughly 12.5%: 6% Florida state sales tax, 1.5% Clay County discretionary sales surtax, and a 5.0% Clay County Tourist Development Tax administered by the Clay County Tax Collector; TDT returns are due monthly and become delinquent after the 20th. Airbnb collects and remits the Clay County TDT on host bookings. There is no owner-occupancy or primary-residence requirement and no legal cap on nights per year. Enforcement is light, handled mainly through state licensing and county code enforcement rather than a dedicated municipal STR program. The town recodified its code via Ordinance 16-25 (October 21, 2025) and Land Development Regulations Ordinance 06-25 (April 15, 2025); at the state level, a major vacation-rental preemption overhaul (SB 280) was vetoed by the governor in June 2024, so the existing F.S. 509.032 framework remains in force.
Market Comparison
The Orange Park, FL area’s $273.05 ADR runs above the roughly $220 national median ADR, about 24% higher, and its 67.56% occupancy runs well above the commonly cited US short-term rental median of about 55%. That combination places Orange Park among the stronger-performing markets in this batch on both rate and fill, consistent with steady demand from its position near Jacksonville, NAS Jacksonville, and regional medical facilities rather than a seasonal leisure destination.
Property-manager-level data for this market is tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for Orange Park, so this profile omits it.
