Is a seasonal guest a tenant in Wyoming?

Wyoming's residential rental property law defines a 'residential rental unit' as a renter's principal place of residence and excludes 'a mobile home lot or recreational property rented on an occasional basis'. It does not name RV parks or set a day threshold, so occasional/seasonal recreational use is outside the act while an RV site that is someone's principal residence can be a residential rental unit.

What that means for notices and removal

Not specifically addressed. Where a tenancy exists, Wyoming requires a written 3-day notice to quit before filing a forcible entry and detainer action in circuit court; periodic tenancies otherwise end on notice per the agreement.

Sub-metering electricity to RV sites in Wyoming

No Wyoming statute or PSC rule specific to RV park submetering was found. Check your serving utility's or cooperative's tariff on resale and bill at cost.

Sales and lodging tax on seasonal sites in Wyoming

State sales tax and the statewide/local lodging tax apply to 'lodging services' to 'transient guests', and the definition expressly includes providing sites for tents, campers, trailers, mobile homes or other mobile sleeping accommodations; a transient guest is one who stays less than 30 continuous days, so seasonal sites occupied 30+ continuous days are not taxable lodging.

Signing agreements online in Wyoming

Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. Electronic signatures are valid for seasonal site agreements when the guest agrees to sign electronically, intends to sign, and the record is kept in a form that can be reproduced and shown not to have changed. Seasonal Sites records the signer’s typed name, email, time, IP address and a SHA-256 fingerprint of the exact text signed, and stores the signed PDF.

Clauses to include in a Wyoming seasonal agreement

These are added on top of the eleven sections in the free template. Adjust the bracketed parts and have a local attorney read the result.

Recreational use, not a residence"The Site is licensed for recreational use only. The Guest maintains a permanent residence elsewhere at the address above, and the Site is not the Guest’s primary residence. Nothing in this agreement creates a residential tenancy." In this state the line between a recreational guest and a residential tenant is what decides which removal process applies, so say it plainly and keep the guest’s home address on file.
Notice periodMatch the notice periods in your termination section to the ones the state uses (3-day notice appears in the rules summarized above) rather than inventing shorter ones; a shorter contractual notice is not enforceable where the statute sets a floor.
Metered electricity"Electricity is individually metered and billed at the Park’s actual cost per kWh from its utility, with no markup, read on or about the [day] of each month; readings are available to the Guest on request." Keep the utility bills and meter readings for at least three years.
Term length and taxState the exact term dates and that the agreement is for a continuous stay of 30 days or more, and keep the signed copy with the term on it — where the summary above shows a long-stay exemption, that document is usually what the auditor asks for.
Electronic signature consent"The Guest consents to sign this agreement electronically and to receive invoices, receipts and notices by email at the address above." Keep the signer name, email, date/time, IP address and a fingerprint of the signed text.
