Short Term Rental Friendly Municipalities

Hey Everyone!

I'm interested in getting a vacation home in Southern Maine and was thinking that it would be ideal for me to buy a place, lightly furnish it, and rent it on AirBnB/VRBO etc.  Does anyone have any experience in Southern ME with short term rentals that can shed some light on which municipalities allow it?  I grew up in South Portland and my family still lives there.  I know a year or 2 ago there was a large movement to ban short term rentals of 1 month or less unless it was owner occupied.  Thanks for all the help!
