As the holiday season kicks off, The Shops at Mount Vernon is perhaps the best one-stop shop for holiday gifts in the DMV. There’s something for everyone, with a vast selection of distinctive and meaningful gifts – games and toys, books, whiskey distilled at Mount Vernon, Mount Vernon inspired jewelry, Presidential glassware, crafts, clothing, holiday décor, the always popular annual Mount Vernon ornaments, and more.
Online shoppers can take advantage of a 20% discount from Black Friday through Cyber Monday. Mount Vernon members always receive a 10% discount at the Shops.
Located on the historic grounds of George Washington’s Mount Vernon estate, the Shops bring to life the spirit and legacy of America's first president. With a focus on historical interest and craftsmanship, the Shops offers a curated collection of special items, with every purchase supporting the preservation of George Washington’s legacy.
In addition to shopping, guests can get into the holiday spirit by enjoying lunch at the historic Mount Vernon Inn and touring the Mount Vernon mansion, museum, and farm, including Mount Vernon’s beloved camel, Aladdin. Throughout the month, a number of holiday events are planned including Mount Vernon by Candlelight and Christmas Illuminations.
