Can I set a strict cancellation policy for specific future dates?

[Paul63]

When big events come to my town I'd like to set a stricter cancellation policy for specified dates. Can someone tell me how to do so? Thanks in advance for your help!

@Paul63 Unfortunately, no.  Whatever your cancellation policy is right now will apply to all confirmed reservations regardless of the dates involved.  If you want to set a strict cancellation policy you can do so at any time so you might set it closer to the dates where you have big events and the like.  That said, it's hard to anticipate when you will receive reservation requests for those dates. 

Since you can change your policy at any time, perhaps you should change it seasonally? This is probably as clear as mud, but I hope you get my drift.  🙂

This is my question exactly. My desire is to set the cancellation policy similarly to setting the price. I normally have the 'moderate' cancellation policy in effect. But for two special events in town I need to set it as strict. This is a setting worth many thousands of dollars to me. Disappointing answer. I feel like I must set it to strict now but wish I didn't have to. I don't mean it for my general bookings.  Jennifer
