Visiting Mount Vernon

Published on Nov, 2024

The guided tour was good, I was disappointed that most of the house was closed nut that's understandable.

Visit Mt. Vernon!

Published on Nov, 2024

Worth the drive and money! Excellent history experience. It will be even better when the restoration work is done and the entire home is open for tours. The staff are amazing!!

Fantastic experience

Published on Oct, 2024

This was a fantastic tour I highly recommend it to anyone thinking of going. So much to see there and no problem to spend several hours there so much to see and feel part of this amazing history.

Ticket time is Line time not tour time

Published on Aug, 2024

***the mansion ticket time is the time you get in line….NOT the mansion tour time… The tour was fantastic but it’s probably 30 minutes in line to enter the mansion. Our tickets were at 11:30am…we entered the mansion @noon. the line is very well organized. They call the times out and check your name off the list.

Excellent experience

Published on Jul, 2024

Education center and New Room were closed due to construction for new renovations, but everything else was very nice. Good value for the price, especially since a tour of the distillery and grist mill down the road were included in the ticket price. I was unable to purchase tickets online on the website, but the cashier at the ticket booth on the property allowed me to use an online discount with no questions asked.
