That said, you can always bring your own drinking water should you have concerns about using well water.
while we do provide a washer & dryer for our guests to use, please know that whites may become slightly discolored due to minute iron particles from the ground water source.Use at your own discretion. PLEASE CONSERVE! Well water is not unlimited and is subject to the ebbs and flows of our water table, which is directly affected by annual rainfall. Please limit showers to a reasonable time frame of 10-15 minutes to conserve water.
