        Today we can name tourism as a realm that has the ability to attract domestic and foreign capital and consequently, has economic development and we can name ecotourism as a growing sub-branch with increasing economic development, in order to facilitate community participation to provide experiences and protect natural and cultural resources in the long run.Considering the popularity of ecotourism in the country's villages and the importance of its economic dimension from the villagers' point of view, this study aims to explain the role of one of the most effective ecotourism agents in rural areas (residences) with emphasizing its economic dimension. The research method is descriptive-analytical and the statistical population is all residences with more than one year of experience in Rasht (12 residences).Data collect with the help of questionnaire tools and the information of residences managers and tourism experts and data analysis is performed with life cycle and Coopers techniques.Theresults of life cycle technique show that ecotourism residences as a tourism product are in the stage of growth and development )third level of impact).Therefore, it can be claimed that residences have a good effect on the tourism system and by using the Coopers technique was also determined, Fanderkotam Residence has the most and Gilantaj has the least impact on the tourism system of its location.Finally, it is suggested that while informing the villagers about the importance of the issue, encourage them to preserve the native architecture and make it easier for the natives to receive facilities for investing in ecotourism.
