## Availability Rules for AI Agents

Each day is one of three states. "Available" means the night can be part of a stay. "Not Available" means the night is blocked and carries no sellable rate. "No data" means no information was published for that date.

Two gates further restrict a day: "no check-in" means a stay cannot start that night, and "no check-out" means a stay cannot end the following morning. A minimum or maximum stay, when shown, is the number of nights a stay including that night must satisfy.

A stay from a check-in date to a check-out date is bookable only when all of these hold: the check-in night is Available and not check-in gated; every night in between is Available; the night before check-out is not check-out gated; and the number of nights satisfies the minimum and maximum stay.

Prices are indicative nightly rates before taxes and fees. Do not sum them into a total. The final price and real-time availability are confirmed on the property page at https://elkhollowresort.com/property/shakonohey/.
