Residential lease agreement for short-term rentals?

I am a homeowner in the state of California who is considering renting out my house on a short-term basis. I am interested in understanding the legal implications of such an arrangement, particularly in regards to the lease agreement that would need to be drafted. I would like to know what provisions I should include in the lease agreement to protect my interests and ensure that I am compliant with the law.

I think you need to post this as a CA question, not as a WA question. However, your first step is checking government and HOA rules, if any and make sure that this is allowed. You will need to change your insurance and possibly add another policy specifically for short term rentals. Let me know if I can ever be of help with WA State legal questions!
