Is there a way to have a minimum night stay during certain parts of the calendar? During the summer, I have a 7 night minimum stay and it is Sunday to Sunday.

Yep! You'll define the default minimum stays and arrival/departure restrictions on the property Rules settings.

Then for stays that only apply for some of the year, like your summer only ones, you can define rules on each season. If defined, those will override the rules on the property. Go to Settings > Seasons (under Rates) to define the detailed rules.

I tried that, but thats just in general settings. From June-end of August I have 7 day min. Memorial Day weekend i have 3 day minimum. Bike Week, Country Music Festival and Spring Break I have 3-7 night min. How can I set this up?

Is there a way to make Sunday to Sunday stays during those min stay periods? Memorial Day would be Fri- Mon.

Yep, you'd add seasons (Settings > Seasons) for each of those periods where you want to control the min stay and/or arrival/departure.

Then go to the rates (Settings > Rates) and associate them with the correct seasons in addition to the current High and Low seasons you've got set up.

Thank you for the help! I figured it out. This was more difficult than it had to be.
