Vacation Rental Properties for Sale in Clearfield, Utah
Clearfield sits in the middle of Davis County between Layton and Roy, sharing a border with Hill Air Force Base — and that single fact shapes the entire rental market here. Unlike Moab or Park City, Clearfield isn't a tourist destination, so buyers shopping for "vacation rental properties" in this MLS segment are almost always targeting furnished mid-term rentals: 30-to-90-day stays for Hill AFB contractors, TDY military personnel, traveling nurses at Davis Hospital, and families relocating to the base who need a soft landing while they house hunt. The city's short-term rental ordinance restricts true nightly rentals in residential zones, so most successful operators here run a corporate housing model rather than an Airbnb tourist model.
Inventory that works for this strategy tends to be 3-4 bedroom ramblers and split-entries on the south and east sides of town, close to the West Gate of Hill AFB and the Clearfield FrontRunner station. Homes with finished basements, separate entrances, or ADU potential carry the strongest cash flow because they let owners run two units off one parcel. Median single-family prices in Clearfield generally land below Layton and Kaysville comps, which is why investor activity has stayed steady even as rates climbed. Pay attention to HOA rental caps in the newer subdivisions on the west side — several of them prohibit leases under twelve months. Browse the active listings below to see which Clearfield properties are currently on the market and structured for furnished-rental use.

Common questions
About vacation rental properties in Clearfield.
Does Clearfield allow short-term vacation rentals? ▾
Clearfield's city code restricts short-term rentals (under 30 days) in most residential zones, and operating one typically requires a business license plus compliance with zoning rules. Before buying with STR income in mind, verify the specific parcel's zoning with Clearfield Community Development. Many investors here pivot to mid-term furnished rentals (30+ days) aimed at Hill AFB contractors, which sidestep the short-term restrictions.
Who actually rents furnished properties in Clearfield? ▾
The dominant tenant pool is Hill Air Force Base personnel on temporary duty assignments, defense contractors working with the base, and traveling medical staff at nearby clinics. Families relocating to the base also often rent furnished for 60-90 days while house hunting. This makes 30-day-plus corporate rentals far more reliable than nightly tourist bookings in Clearfield.
What price range should I expect for a rental-ready property here? ▾
Most Clearfield single-family homes trade in the $400K-$550K range, with townhomes and older ramblers below that. Properties already set up with furnishings, separate entrances, or basement apartments tend to command a small premium. Multi-family and homes with ADU potential near Antelope Drive and the FrontRunner station draw the most investor interest.
How close are these properties to Hill Air Force Base? ▾
Clearfield borders Hill AFB directly to the southeast, and most homes in town are within a 5-15 minute drive of the West Gate or Roy Gate. That proximity is the entire investment thesis here — tenants want a short commute to base, and Clearfield delivers that more affordably than Layton or Kaysville.
Are there HOAs that restrict rentals? ▾
Yes — several newer Clearfield subdivisions and townhome communities have rental caps or outright bans on leases under 12 months. Always pull the CC&Rs before writing an offer if rental income is part of your plan. Older neighborhoods north of Antelope Drive and east of Main Street generally have no HOA, which is why they show up most often in investor searches.
What occupancy rates do mid-term rentals see in Clearfield? ▾
Operators targeting Hill AFB contracts typically run 80-90% annual occupancy with 1-3 month average stays. Demand softens slightly in December and peaks spring through early fall when base training rotations are heaviest. Furnished 3-bedroom homes near the base tend to lease fastest.
