Short-Term Rental Regulations
North Woodstock is a village within the Town of Woodstock, Grafton County, New Hampshire. Short-term rentals are permitted. Based on available sources, the Town of Woodstock does not have a dedicated short-term rental ordinance, and no local permit, rental night cap, owner-occupancy requirement or primary residence requirement was found. Enforcement severity is rated minimal.
New Hampshire delegates short-term rental rules to municipalities, so each town in the shared regional market has its own rules, and this summary applies only to North Woodstock. No STR cap, occupancy limit or overlay district specific to Woodstock was identified. Standard town zoning and state life-safety, building and housing standards apply. The town’s ordinance page could not be accessed directly, so a niche local provision cannot be fully ruled out.
At the state level, anyone renting short-term must register with the New Hampshire Department of Revenue Administration for a Meals and Rentals Tax Operator’s License (Form CD-3, free) and collect and remit the statewide 8.5% Meals and Rooms (Rentals) Tax on stays of fewer than 185 consecutive days. There is no local option lodging tax, so 8.5% is the full rate.
Do not confuse this town with Woodstock, Vermont or Woodstock, New York, which have enacted their own STR caps, permits and fees. Those rules do not apply here. No recent Woodstock, NH rule changes were found. Confirm current rules with the Woodstock Planning and Zoning office before buying.
Market Comparison
The regional market that includes North Woodstock shows a split result between volume and rate. September 2026 occupancy was 41.4%, and the 2026 year to date figure is 45.2%. August (66.8%), July (63.6%), February (57.3%) and June (51.9%) post the highest monthly occupancy.
Pricing runs the other way. The ADR of $301 in September and the year to date ADR of $311 are well ahead of the $224 ADR of 2017. The market therefore earns its revenue more from rate than from volume.
The result is a market where occupancy assumptions should be conservative and rate assumptions can be firm. Investors should not expect high booked nights outside the summer and February peaks, but each booked night is worth more than it was a few years ago. Top operator data is tracked at a shared regional level rather than uniquely for North Woodstock, so this profile omits it.
