The town features a Village Green, biking and hiking on Indian Head Rail Trail, cultural events at the Center for the Arts, and the access to the Mattawoman and Potomac River for fishing, kayaking and canoeing.Indian Head manages Mattingly Park, formerly known as Slavins Ramp, and is an access point for Mattawoman Creek.
