In short
Zola places screened, long-term tenants in Oro-Medonte houses, condos and country homes, from Horseshoe Valley to Shanty Bay and the Lake Simcoe shore. Under By-law 2026-078, advertised short-term rentals need a licence and are allowed only in the resort zones, so long-term renting is the usual route. You pay one month's rent plus HST when your tenant signs.
Oro-Medonte rules to know before you rent
We don't have Oro-Medonte reviews to show yet, so here are the Township's own rules, and where to check them.
- Short-term rentals: a licence, and only in resort zonesBy-law 2026-078, adopted July 22, 2026, requires a licence for advertised short-term rentals and bed and breakfasts. Short-term rentals are permitted in the Village resort and R2-123 zones, and in the Horseshoe Resort and Highland Estate condos, but not in the Township's residential zones. Enforcement began this fall.Source: Township of Oro-Medonte, short-term rental and B&B licensing, checked October 18, 2026
- Well water: free bacteria testsPublic Health Ontario tests private well water for E. coli and coliform bacteria for free, with results online in two to four business days. Testing before a new tenant moves in is good practice.Source: Public Health Ontario, well water testing (June 3, 2026), checked October 18, 2026
- Condos: notice to the corporationOwners of Horseshoe Valley condos must tell the condo corporation the unit is leased and give it a copy of the lease within 10 days of signing, and the tenant must follow the building's rules.Source: Condo Authority of Ontario, leasing a condo, checked October 18, 2026

Oro-Medonte questions
Can I rent my Horseshoe Valley home short-term?
Only in the zones that allow it, such as the resort zones and certain resort condos, and with a Township licence. In residential zones, short-term rentals aren't permitted, so a long-term tenant is the legal route.

Yes. We follow the building's rules for showings and move-ins and help you send the corporation the lease within the 10 days the law requires.
How fast do Oro-Medonte homes rent?
Our average across all our placements is 14 days from listing to a signed lease. We'll give you a realistic estimate for your home on the strategy call.
