Mount Vernon was located off of the banks of the Potomac River and is also sixteen miles away from Washington D.C.. Outside of the house were the slave quarters, stables, a dock, a dung repository, a kitchen and also an area that was for Washington's blacksmiths that were used during the war to make all of his weapons. Inside of the house was a dining area, a living area, Washington's office, multiple bedrooms, and a seperate stair case for the Washington's use only. I loved walking through the farm area with all the animals, and also seeing what the slave quarters were like.
This was one of the buildings that was connected to the main house.
George Washington and most of his family members were burried in this tomb.
