Mount Vernon occupies a quiet expanse of land where the earth rises and falls in long, muscular swells of clay and limestone. It lies 9.8 miles east-northeast of Sumner, TN (from Sumner, TN: bearing 63°T), and is situated 5.5 miles west-southwest of Westmoreland. The terrain here is defined by the steady, unhurried persistence of Middle Fork Drakes Creek, which carves a narrow, winding path through the local topography, feeding the moisture that keeps the surrounding woods dense and verdant. Beyond the immediate reach of the soil, the horizon remains stubbornly flat, though the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains occasionally haunts the eastern edge of the sky on the clearest days. Deep in the quietude of the land, Duffer Hollow acts as a natural basin, gathering the morning mist that clings to the tree lines long after the sun has climbed high enough to bake the fields.

Mount Vernon retains the character of an old agrarian outpost, a place where the economy has long been tethered to the patient yield of the soil and the seasonal cycles of local timber and crop. The influence of the land remains palpable, as seen in the preservation efforts at Taylor Hollow Fee, where the native flora is allowed to reclaim its own space, undisturbed by the press of modern industry. Life in Mount Vernon moves in rhythm with the daylight, punctuated by the occasional traveler passing toward the quiet waters of Meadowbrook Game Farm Lake. There is a singular, heavy stillness to the air here at dusk, a quality of light that turns the gray fence posts to silver and reminds those who remain that the history of this place is written in the slow, deliberate work of the hands that farm it.
