Clarification on Tax Treatment for Property Registered as Rental with township

As per my township ordinance, I am required to register any property I own—other than my primary residence—as a rental property.

For tax filing purposes, how should I treat this property? Should it be classified as a rental property or a vacation home? I own this property in this town which is not rented and a relative currently resides, while I live in a different house that is my primary residence.
