The home and farm of our 34th President, the Eisenhower National Historic Site provides a warm and personal look at the home life of Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower.
Renovated in the early 1950s, the home served as a weekend getaway for the President and a meeting place for world leaders. Retiring to the farm in 1961, the Eisenhowers gifted the property to the federal government in 1967. The farm was designated as a National Historic Site in 1969.
Today, the site offers hospitality to guests through Ranger talks and self-guided tours of the home (when open seasonally) and property including its gardens, teahouse, skeet range, putting green and Angus cattle barns.
