Whenever your mansion time is, make your timed ticket work for you, not against you. Tip: The visit is all about your mansion time.Ī visit to Mount Vernon includes a grounds pass, which allows access to the historic area, outbuildings, gardens, tomb, and more.Ī tour of the Mansion requires a separate ticket which can be purchased online in advance or at the gate when entering.

Generally, grounds close 30 minutes after closing time and the museum and gift shop are 1 hour after closing time. The closing hours are rolling as the last guest leaves the mansion. From March to June and to a lesser extent in October, expect the grounds to be crowded with school groups in the morning as they are allowed in earlier than the general public.Īn afternoon visit will be much quieter for individuals and families, but still, expect energetic 13-14-year-olds roaming around the grounds.
