Well cared for a clean farm in an urban setting. Not a ton of animals but the ones they have seem well cared for. A couple of goats, pigs, cows, several free range chickens grazing. There are also a couple of horses. There are many picnic table options in sun and shade. There is a bike/ walking trail and several highly informative signs teaching about the history of the place. The info center staff are friendly, there are a few items for purchase / gift shop and there are separate restrooms. Plenty of parking.

Such a fun place to take your family and/or friends to explore the farm and park grounds to learn about its history. Just off 495/ The Beltway, the admission is free to this National Park. There are picnic table options, but be prepared to bring your own food and drinks as there are only options to fill your water bottles. We also found that the place wasn't too busy as some nearby parks, so it's nice in a sense that it doesn't feel crowded with lots of people. The park itself has a few interesting components with a historical farm that contains historic buildings from when the property was used for agricultural purposes. There's an air conditioned visitor center with a small gift shop and some interpretive exhibits for the kiddos. When we were there, there were National Park Staff present and they were happy to answer any questions about the property. There are also a few different types of farm animals (pigs,chickens, goats horses and cows to name a few) that are out and about on the property. The second interesting part is exploring the trails and seeing how the historic house connects to the land and American history. One of the trails is over a mile and provides an awesome view of the Capitol area as it goes down to Oxon Cove (which is an inlet of the Potomac River). We spent about two hours on a clear day here, but one could easily spend multiple hours checking out the trail system and property as there is lots of scenic views and history to take in. While there is shade in the trail system, id recommend bringing water and sunscreen to protect your skin. Mosquito repellent as well since you are nearby the water. Overall, would recommend this to anyone who is interested in a fun (and free!) family visit or wants to explore more of the trail systems in the local DMV area.

Its a museum and farm at the same time, with multiple trails through the surrounding woods and benches to sit on. My Wife and I had a great experience walking around the farm and seeing all the different animals and buildings. We went down one of there shorter trails, bout a half mile long, and saw a deer on our way out.

Oxon Cove Park is a beautiful National Park that surrounds Oxon Hill Farm. The park along the Potomac where visitors can watch eagles, herons, and osprey. Additionally, I have seen wild turkeys, deer, racoons, turtles, and even a coyote.
The Farm may be the last farm inside the Washington, DC beltway. It has interpretive programs and visitors can see cows, pigs, chickens, and other farm animals.
This park is generally quiet as it does not have many visitors, but it is truly worth a visit.

Cute little farm slash museum with a half mile trail through some beautiful woods. Very quiet and peaceful even despite being right next to a big highway. Went on a rainy day and there was no-one else there, though the trail was mostly mud.
