Marietta is a 60,000-resident Cobb County city anchored by its historic square, a thriving downtown restaurant scene, and easy I-75 access. Short-term rental demand here comes from a mix of leisure visitors (Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield, Six Flags, Marietta Square), Truist Park / Battery Atlanta sports travelers, and corporate guests visiting nearby Lockheed Martin and the Dobbins Air Reserve Base. Stellar Rentals manages Marietta STRs with operational rigor and local market knowledge — the combination that separates a passable rental from a top-quartile performer.

Why Marietta is a strong Airbnb market

Truist Park (home of the Atlanta Braves) drives 81+ home-game days of premium demand every season
Marietta Square's bars, restaurants, and Strand Theater anchor leisure weekend bookings
Less restrictive STR ordinances than the City of Atlanta — many properties qualify without owner-occupancy
Strong corporate demand from Lockheed Martin, Dobbins ARB, and Town Center business corridor
I-75 access puts guests 25 minutes from downtown Atlanta when they want city activities
Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park draws year-round outdoor and history-tourism guests

Hosting tips for Marietta properties

Calendar around Braves home games

Truist Park hosts ~81 regular-season home games plus playoffs. Rates within 5 miles can run 2–3× weekday averages on game weekends. Make sure your pricing tool is flagged into the MLB schedule — leaving game nights priced as standard weekends is the most common revenue leak we see in this market.

Compete on amenities, not just price

Marietta's STR supply skews toward family-friendly homes and condos. Differentiating amenities — fenced yards, hot tubs, gas grills, dedicated workspaces, EV chargers — drive both occupancy and ADR. Listings with hot tubs in this market consistently outperform comparable listings without by 15–25%.

Know your Cobb County permit requirements

Marietta STR registration is required and managed at the city level, separate from Cobb County. Annual permit fees are modest but lapses can trigger fines. PrepBnb Compliance tracks your permit's expiration date and reminds you before each renewal so this never falls through the cracks.
