There is a washer/dryer for use, with detergent and fabric softener provided. Please be aware that the house is on a well. We filter the water coming through, but the house does occasionally get surges of iron that can discolor light colored clothing. If you are at all concerned, please avoid washing. There is state-of-the-art technology throughout the home, which you can control from our app. Our Concierge will support over text but if you are not comfortable using tech - it may not be an enjoyable experience. Please note this functionality is in beta and we are constantly adding improvements. You do not have to stress about getting locked out or being unable to turn on the lights should they malfunction, as there is an easy, manual work around for all. No smoking or vaping inside. Open flames including candles are also prohibited. Exceptions are birthday candles or fire in a designated fire pit or fireplace.
