One of the best things about Daze with Jordan is the fact that it doesn't really matter if filming is not permitted. The photography, combined with the informative narrative ensures the viewer feels as though he/she has actually visited the property. And what a property! The rich colors and fabrics give the impression you are inside a modern household. In fact the entire interior design gives a tremendous insight into the tastes and lifestyle of the Washington family. This is a great example of history coming to life. Many Thanks Jordan for taking the time to photograph and create this wonderful Vlog.

[@marypalmer1062]

You said it brother.

[@heathertokia5828]

I agree, good taste and Jordan did awesome once again! They had to of been rich to have that luxury back then. The fabric for the beds alone had to of been expensive.

[@lorikee6689]

I agree Jordan vlogs so interesting

[@judithmitchell4667]

Oh, Am I the only one who is ready to move into the gorgeous blue toile bedroom ? - Heavenly. The grounds, the house, the graves... A wonderful tour. A glimpse into Washington's personal life. I Iove history and appreciate this fascinating look into his life. Thank you so very much Jordan. Blessings - Judith 🎵🎭 .

[@jonham8469]

Another great video. We've been to Mt. Vernon about four times (we live in NC, wife is from VA) and the one thing that surprised me the first time I went was that it is not made of stone. It looks like masonry, but those are planks of wood with bevels cut in them to make them look like stone blocks. And they they painted it with paint that had a lot of sand in it, so it looks even more like limestone when painted. Learning that blew me away. Also, that green dining room, we were told, was painted that way to impress guests. It seems that the most expensive paint color to make and buy was green, so this was a real "in your face" decorating choice. By the way, you're not far from Montpelier, James Madison's home. Hope you're going to vlog that one. It's an interesting place, too. Also, Gunston Hall, George Mason's home, is not far from Mt. Vernon. And if you get a chance, go into Pohick Church, Washington's home church in Lorton. It's quite impressive. Keep up the good vidoes.

[@jasonmcgovern1364]

Hi Jordan, wow, an impressive looking house and great location! I love the blue bedroom. So lucky to be able to see items that George Washington actually used and his actual death bed, what an experience. Great vlog Jordan.

[@donnastedham9822]

It was great to be able to tour Mount Vernon. You did an excellent job, Jordan. Thanks so much.

[@rogertaylor7433]

The key in the case was a key for The Bastelle in France 🇫🇷, after the destruction of it. The Marquette de Lafayette was like a son to President George Washington, and he gifted him the key on one of his visits to Mount Vernon Plantation 😀.

[@Bob-jg3vq]

It was great to see the inside of President George and Martha Washington's home. The home furniture and decorations are beautiful. Thank you for showing us.

[@ladnarfilms5201]

I've been to Mount Vernon twice and it is an amazing place. Very beautiful. Much of the White House is built to kind of resemble Mount Vernon. George Washington started the White House, but died before it was ever completed.

[@peetie3970]

I visited there in 1979..really enjoyed the experience and looking back there were two things that stood out in my mind the first was the pinch myself realizing that I was at a place that I had only read about and this made George more real life and the second thought that crossed my mind was there is no way he threw a silver dollar across the Potomac behind his house

[@raydash1424]

I believe the key was a gift from Lafayette and it was a key to the notorious French prison the Bastille. After the French Revolution the doors were thrown open and prisoners released. Lafayette viewed Washington as a father figure and considered him a major inspiration for the French Revolution

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

It was indeed from lafayette

[@evytimblin3269]

I absolutely ENJOYED your commentary and photos. Thank you for coming to this place, Jordan.

[@travelrx81]

Wow! What a step back in time! Beautiful presentation and voice over explanation to everything. I really felt like I went 300 years back in time and I could see the Washington's walking around the grounds of their beautiful home. 😍

[@lorih2924]

Great tour of the house. Great commentary. The inside of the house is so beautiful and amazing. It’s surreal seeing the bed George Washington passed away on. Loved the bedrooms and how different they all were. Thank you for bringing us along with you. Excellent job as always.

[@seattlescofflaws]

The MVLA has a goal to have MT Vernon look as it looked when George lived there. They removed a porch that was added to the south side by people who owned the house later. The river side roof line used to have a little fence type design which was also removed. This was all about a hundred years ago but I guess it doesn’t surprise me they would put in period windows (that you showed).

[@louisetregomorgan4907]

. One can only imagine all the dignitaries and there wives being presented and entertained by Martha while her husband held important business meetings . I wondered what she saved to her guess . And who slept in the beautiful guess rooms . Marth had impeccable taste not too over the top just perfect . Thanks for the photo shots Jordan , now I see why so many visitors enjoy this historic American tour . 💛💚💜👍

[@landibear6509]

This was cool but now I REALLY want to see what's on that third floor! I love history and beautiful old houses like these. Thanks for letting us visit them with you!!

[@heathertokia5828]

Wow, what a great look inside! Thanks so much for doing this! I can’t believe how nice it looked for that century. They definitely had some money. Keep on being you! Kisses and hugs to Jah! 🦴🐾❤️

[@dazzlingchick]

💋Another great historical vlog!!! Such an amazing place. Happy Holidays. ~Love&Light♥️Carli

[@veronicareeves2629]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you Jordan for a look back in time at George Washington's home.

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

You are very welcome

[@veronicareeves2629]

@@DazewithJordantheLion I love historic places we get to visit with you. Hopefully you'll take us back by your home to show us progress on the fence and what you've added lately.

[@paladinjustice6391]

Love the history videos. Every school child should watch this one. Thanks, Jordan.

[@christinaotter]

Wow what a cool place. I love museums no matter where they are. I love history and old things.

[@Cardoo46]

Where I lived in Pennsylvania, they had a lot of old houses like original Mt. Vernon people still live in them today-some are bigger most are smaller. The ceilings were low to keep it warm. Lots put stucco over brownstone. Most put additions on them, and of course install a modern kitchen. The view from Mr. Vernon was beautiful! Mr. Washington must’ve had one heck of a thumb to toss a coin across the Potomac! 😝

[@johnroot4886]

I love history and videos such as this, Jordan does such a wonderful job in every aspect, thank you Jordan for all you do and for giving us all a chance to see things that many of us haven’t seen in a long time or ever at all.

[@charlotteavery4040]

This was awesome!!! You did a great job showing us around and I appreciate it. Thank you.

[@mariaday712]

What a beautiful building. Such lovely things inside. Wonderful views of the Potomac river. Thank you for the lovely tour. It was great to be able to see these places and things. Stay safe and take care.

[@syreetaabney6968]

Hello Jordan this video was so awesome even thought you could not film it was just photos it was still amazing and the view was so beautiful and peaceful and you such a great job I love this channel keep the videos coming.

[@1189paris]

I've been to George Washington's Mount Vernon numerous times. One time I was fortunate enough to go to the 3rd floor where Martha Washington lived the last 2 years of her life. I highly recommend that you visit the Hermitage in Nashville, TN. where Andrew Jackson lived. 95% of the furnishings at the Hermitage were original to the house which is very rare in most historical homes unfortunately. Another great home to visit is Thomas Jefferson's Monticello in Virginia.

[@mlm21]

I saw the third floor too. Is it not wonderful? It's only around xmas when they open it.

[@1SeanBond]

A excellent view! Wow that was fun, Thanks for taking us all along Jordan. What a Amazing part of history! Ty for creating these videos & the time it takes to make such amazing Content...Cheers! 🤝✌

[@laurelsheart]

Am loving all this. They should allow video, so silly. A most beautiful spot, Im so glad I got to see inside.

[@redsdawn246]

These historical videos are awesome. What a beautiful home. George Washington’s false teeth looked more natural than I pictured them. I always thought they were made out of wood also.

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

Yes, that has always been the rumor, but no wood on his teeth

[@theangendeavor9910]

I am so enjoying these historical vlogs Jordan!!! Bring it on!!!!!

[@lyndac7511]

Beautiful historic house really enjoyed the Washington vlogs thank you Jordan 👍👍👍👍👍

[@karenleemallonee684]

I really felt like I was stepping into the house myself, great photography job, Jordan. I enjoyed seeing how he lived and hearing a bit about his wife. Thank you for this opportunity to learn more about, George Washington. Loved the vlog, Thanks!!! 🌼

[@danadavis6097]

This is awesome Jordan! I love seeing this beautiful home to George Washington. He did a great job adding on those rooms. Amazing that it was so long ago. And the craftsmanship is probably much better than today's standards. I love the blue color. That should be a popular color now. It's beautiful. Thank you. I hope you had a wonderful time on your travels. Also watched the Thomas Jefferson video. Great also. God bless always. Kiss Jah for me🤗❤️🙏

[@josephaldana4140]

Thank you Jordan and Jah for this historical tour of General Washington house

[@conniefeltman4561]

Thank You for ALL Your Hard Work …. the pictures were so good … and your narrative was Awesome! You mentioned … how quite it was …. Just think 🤔 back then … No TV No Radio No Cell Phones No Computers No iPads No Cars 🚗 ! I use to go visit my Grandfather … always left the door unlocked … and he would be sitting in his chair with TV on … and remember how peaceful it was! He was born in 1898 … that was his way of life! Really enjoyed this tour! 👏👏❤️⭐️🇺🇸🌹

[@michelesowards7764]

Great seeing our first Presidents home. Wow! Great job as always Jordan!

[@NeTxGrl]

Thank you for this video. In the beginning of the video you were walking past the trees and mentioning how Washington walked right past those trees too. It reminded me of a wooden vase I bought from Mt. Vernon. The vase was made from a Chesnut tree that had been there since the 1700's when Washington was alive and I thought, well that's cool. Then I found out the tree was struck down by a severe storm on July 6, 2020 which happened to be the same day my father died. So this vase has a lot of meaning to me. I had a lot of ancestors that fought in the American Revolution. One of them, my 5th great grandfather Samuel Ellis,had a conversation with Washington. I'm proud to say I'm a distant cousin of his.

[@judywho2249]

Wow that was like a lime green! Thanks enjoyed this alot!

[@janbond8460]

I was there YEARS ago. Thank you for refreshing my memory.

[@BethCampbell-b9c]

Wow! Jordan, this was amazing!! Thank you for posting this!

[@Daron-Novotny]

I loved it man!!!! I love colonial history like this. Please do more content like this. This is our country's history and should never be "forgotten"

[@caroldedeurwaerder2660]

Sincerely thank you for sharing your video of Washington's home. I love reading biographies & memoirs that I'm currently reading Washington by Ron Chernow. It's intriguing to picture how they lived back then. I love that rocking chair in Washington's office. Very inventive back in the day. Looking forward in seeing more of your videos.

[@andreabryant1131]

hey Jordan and jah!!! thank you!! for seeing George Washington's house tour and his bedroom where he died!! love you!!! we love you!!! hugs 🤗👐😘 💋😘😗😚😙!!! ✌ out!!!❤❤

[@marypalmer1062]

Oh Jordan that was just wonderful. Thanks for taking me.

[@markdraskovics1962]

HEY, JORDAN & JAH HOPE YOUR WELL ...WOW, GEORGE WASHINGTON House IS SO very Beautiful and the inside is awesome the hole place is outstanding And there's so much to see on his property the colors are weird oh wow that's funny general Lafayette had a shopping plaza named after him in Bridgeport Connecticut which is no longer there yes that was a cool tour of the house thank you take care stay safe God bless and will see you on the next awesome video

[@ARTWV]

Hi Jordan, that was awesome. GW was one hell of a man. The way he inspired his men to keep fighting when they wanted to quite so many times is unbelievable.

[@evagengler9666]

Wow, what a house! What a view! I can see myself sitting on that river bank and watching the water for least a couple hours. How calming that must have been for GW.

[@_CoolHandLuke_]

Such an important home. The deathbed was interesting to see for sure. Great camera angles! Thanks bud!

[@Katwoman4318]

Thank you Jordan. This vlog was incredible, and the still photos were awesome. I have to visit Mount Vernon, Virginia. Thanks.

[@moniquedeitz4356]

Very enjoyable, Jordan! Thank you so much for being our guide. I've recommended this video to others and know they will enjoy it, too.

[@Dirtbag_Deluxe]

We took a trip to Washington DC for our 7th grade history class back in April of 1996 and Mt. Vernon was one our stops! That trip was awesome!! We got to see so much cool stuff. The white house, capital building, all the monuments, Ford's theater and the apartment across the street where Lincoln passed away, the Smithsonian museum, Arlington cemetery, some really old fort that I don't remember the name of lol, It really got me way more into history for sure!

[@roxannenoel4065]

I'm from Mt. Vernon, Va and I believe the really old fort you are talking about is called Fort Hunt. It also has pavilions/picnic area's.

[@KimberlyWatson2023]

I really like the green dinning room actually it's one of my favorite colors 💚💚💚💚💚💚

[@TravelswithNick]

Can’t believe they still had the death bed in there. That was something to see! 😎👍

[@tombrown-Roushfan17]

Amazing place! Will have to visit sometime! Thanks Jordan!

[@Richy.Boi.]

Thanks Jordan for such a rich history lesson.

[@TheSupy96]

I went there as an 8th grade trip and I remember them saying no pictures bc the flash could fade the paint. It was also 14 degrees and that is cold being from the south! None of us kids wanted to get off the bus.

[@judithschoner6433]

I love Mount Vernon, so much tradition, it is beautiful located too.

[@DeathOfARockStar]

I love when you do videos like this I’m very interested in historical places and history. Appreciate the work you put in the videos, thanks.

[@daddybog7189]

Great History renewed, and amazing photos. thank you

[@sherryhash3063]

Went here two weeks ago. Most beautiful magnolia trees and the biggest of ever seen. Took some of the seed pods home with me.

[@Twinsconspiracy]

I’ve seen other videos of this tour and so many have “I forgot to take a picture” or “I wish I would have captured a picture”. So it’s nice to know you took pictures as if you were filming. His “last will and testament” desk and his “death bed” were very interesting. I wish they would have allowed a look at the third floor, wonder what his wife’s room looked like.

[@tarasmith7859]

I love how you appreciate history. You have a passion for bringing stories to life and making everything and everyone you talk about endearing. Ever since I was little, I have been fascinated of seeing places where people of long ago had set foot in. I often imagined what it would be like to go back in time and have conversations with someone from history. Closest I will ever come is to read a good book OR watching one of your amazing videos!

[@jessiev7322]

I have always wondered about Washington's home. Glad it's still there and protected.

[@deehickman6417]

Loved all your photos and info! Very cool to see! Just amazing to see things that belonged to the famiky! Thanks so much, Jordan!

[@BamaraisedMeNCpaysMe]

I appreciate your thoroughness!! I travel through you because you go places I KNOW I'm not interested in going. However you make it fun and educational. Many thanks to you and Jah!

[@mamab4211]

thanks for taking us along!! 🥰

[@BenjaminLSmith]

This was fantastic. Thanks for sharing.👍

[@cynthiamincher5154]

Remember touring his house as teen thanks Jordan love see history

[@follkiej]

live close to Surrender Field so I think the same thing that George Washington was here! Too cool! Great vlog again Jordan!

[@altonwilliams7117]

Cool 👍 Great pics. I went to DC and saw most everything and toured the Smithsonian Museums. I walked across the bridge over the Potomac River to Arlington National Cemetery.

[@steveperry921]

Pretty cool to look out the window in Washington's bedroom and think that's pretty much exactly the same view he would have seen. Great job doing the vlog with photos since they didn't allow filming, it was almost as if you were filming. Well done.

[@sherryhall6946]

I enjoyed seeing this a lot. That house is very nice. Thanks for sharing. ❤️

[@kathypellette2509]

very awesome! thanks Jordan for sharing your many travels with us!

[@Atm0111]

This is amazing 👏🧡i need a rocking chair w a fan attached to it! Very cool little invention

[@ohbutthejoy]

Thank you Jordan, I love these types of videos!

[@veronicaemmerichs4528]

You should go to Williamsburg Va.... I've seen most of these items there, the kitchen's were placed in a separate building/room a breezeway away. It was said so the smells were not in the home. I Really think that you would enjoy Williamsburg. Very Nice Video ⚘

[@genemadsen8141]

Thanks Jordan, I Enjoyed your Washington's Video. I went there as a Kid, probably didn't really understand how important that home was. Thanks

[@jancollins69]

Thank you for this vlog Jordan🤩 I love history 💝

[@sharylcherwa7369]

I'm very surprised that you didn't show the Round Barn. That is the Most Epic Barn I have Ever Seen. I'm not sure if your done filming there Jordan but I sure hope you got to see it. I really enjoy following you. Your the first vlogger I ever watched. Safe Travels.

[@esliet]

Love love this. Love me some history by Jordan

[@777jxd]

Great photography, Jordan, thank you.👍

[@barbarachieppo9603]

I love the green dining room.

[@rexstraw1682]

Another Great Vlog! We have been to Mt. Vernon several times, looking forward to returning!

[@racheld.1273]

Thanks Jordan for showing that!!!

[@carolk5770]

Great vlog. The pics inside were great & looked just like the real thing!!!

[@SueProst]

Excellent photos and narrative

[@brendabijak7171]

Very very cool! I thought for a second George had a pizza oven in his kitchen!

[@missykowalewski]

Again, good job Jordan. U got great still shots. With u explaining the pics it still feels like a regular tour and informative. One thing they told me in the many trips I made was the paint on the walls (random colors) was relatively new. Paper was usually used and wall paints were grey or off white. He want to show his love for color and felt it went well with all the colors in the outside view. I guess by today’s standards he was a trend setter. Loving the filming in this part of the country.

[@christineruss2630]

Jordan. Come to Fredericksburg Virginia and visit Washington’s boyhood home, Ferry Farm. His mother’s home is across the river in town, as well as his sisters home, Kenmore. Fredericksburg will keep you busy for many blogs!

[@joanndallas4683]

Loved it! I believe I liked Washington's home over Jefferson's but it was close. Seemed to have several paintings of George and not so many of Martha. So much fun....where are you taking us next?

[@alisamccann2386]

Very cool videos. Next time you are in Nashville you should visit The Hermitage (Andrew Jackson’s Home) 😊

[@marlenepearson9657]

Great video. I can't afford to travel. But we can sure go on vacation with you!

[@tonymirabal8832]

I've been there the home is Big even by today's standards, Jordan your shows are great

[@atomicorang]

Really amazing the father of our country lived there.

[@luisvaldes1568]

Thanks your pics are great.

[@lynnessewimperfect825]

Oh Jordan .... absolutely wonderful! I had goose bumps as you toured the house, especially when you came to his room and bed where he passed away. A huge WOW moment. Question: why weren't people allowed to the 3rd floor to see Mrs. Washington's room? As for the whole house, it doesn't surprise me that it grew and did so quite elegantly. Mr. Washington was, after all, an architect before he was President.

[@marilynsullivan3260]

Jordan, thanks for the tour.

[@bettycarlson9640]

Excellent job Jordan!!!

[@mberRep2112]

In Pennsylvania there's some great George Washington history as well. The Old Bedford Village, Jean Bonnet Tavern, and The David Espy House.
