Tax laws are full of exceptions, but the 14-day rule—sometimes called the "Masters exception" because of its popularity in Georgia during the annual Masters golf tournament—is the most important for anyone considering renting out a vacation home. Under this rule, you don't report any of the rental income you earn from the short-term rental, as long as you:

  • Rent the property for no more than 14 days during the year AND
  • Use the vacation house yourself 14 days or more during the year

If you meet the requirements of the 14-day rule, you do not have to report the income on your taxes and you don't deduct any expenses as a rental expense.
