Yes, although tenant protection laws vary by state. In most states, for instance, you cannot be thrown out without a certain period of notice ahead of time, even if you do not have a legally signed lease.
Renters always have rights but, they do vary by state. Make sure to look at your lease and check your local states renting laws.

Can you rent your vacation home if the restrictions say not for public use?
State law and the definitions specified in the restrictions may affect this answer. That notwithstanding, and without reading the restrictions or state law, public use has a common meaning of access by the general public. When you rent, you are transferring your rights of private access to the home to the renter. After the lease begins, the renter has most of the private access rights alone. The public has no more rights to the home as they would if you owned it directly. Now, if you rent it to someone whose purpose is to open it up to the public, then you may knowingly walk into a situation where you breach the restrictions. The renter has to obey the same restrictions (assuming they are deed restrictions) as you do. So, the renter cannot just open the home for public use--say for public use of the bathroom. If the renter does that, then you would be in breach. You could always add in the lease agreement that "As the tenant, you cannot open the home for public use. Failure to abide by that restriction will constitute a material breach of this lease." You should contact an attorney before adding any such language to the agreement.

Can i rent a room from somebody other than the landlord?
Basically anyone you rent a room from IS your landlord. Now, if you're talking about renting a room from someone who happens to be renting from a landlord, it depends on whether that landlord allows the tenant to rent a room to someone else (this is called subletting). I would be very careful about renting a subletted area from a renter. As a subletted renter you dont' have any rights as you would if you were a normal renter. The actual landlord may not allow the renter to sublet, and the renter could be kicked out, as can you!

Yes, if I understand your question. The grandmother didn't own the house, so she was a renter and if the daughter moves in she will be the renter. Therefore she can be charged rent.
