How to set most dates as blocked

Is there an easy way to set most dates as blocked as we live in our home and I prefer to only list for a few weeks out of the year.

Hello Selena - you need to go to your Calendar page.  You can click and slide the cursor on any date, which should grey it out and then look over to the right hand side of the page where is shows you the date(s) you have blocked.... then confirm  and hey presto you should have blocked those dates.   If you want to take out several dates at once (for example a whole month) click on the space on the left hand side of the start date, and then slide the cursor over all the dates you want blocked.

Sometimes you have to make a couple of attempts but this works for me.

That method will work for a day, but then when the date changes over, one more day of availability will be added to the end of the booking window and that day will be available. One would have to go in each day and change that last day to unavailable.

 

The way to handle this is just the opposite. Go to the Availability Settings, and click on Booking Window. One of the options is Dates Unavailable by Default. Then go to the dates in the calender when you *can* host, and as Mac said, you can highlight the dates and change them to Available.
