I am wanting to set up a booking requirement during our high season of ski season where during these months, if a booking is wanting Wednesday they would need a min of 4 nights, on Thursday it would be 3 nights, same on Friday 3 nights, and Saturday 3 nights, and then Sunday / Monday / Tuesday are 2 nights.

I'd also like all holiday (US holiday) weekends to require 3 night stays ....I subscribed to the holiday US list but perhaps I still need to set a "seasons" of holidays ?

The simplest way to come close to what you want, is by using our Rate Calendar and Spot Rates:

Note that, for min-night settings, a booking will be controlled by the min-nights on the arrival day. Any other min-nights later in the stay will be ignored.

Thanks Ken.

question. it appears i dont actually have to set rates using this feature. is this true as i currently use pricelabs to set up my pricing. maybe i can play with pricelabs and set min nights.

will price labs override OR with respect to rules on min nights?

Yes, PriceLabs will override whatever is in OwnerRez. So you should control both your rates and your min nights there.

Is the same true for the Beyond Pricing program that I use? Beyond pricing will be the ultimate settings of minimal night required?

Yes, all the dynamic pricing systems work generally the same way and follow the same rules with OwnerRez.
