The preserve is rich in wildlife and bird species, providing visitors with hours of observation.

To the east of the Country Forest community is Lake Johnson Nature Park, a scenic park with challenging trails and that is a favorite spot for jogging and biking. After a jog, visitors can sit back and enjoy one of the park’s comfortable rocking chairs while watching the sunset over the 150-acre lake.

East of Lake Johnson Nature Park is the Lonnie Poole Golf Course, which was designed by Arnold Palmer on the campus of North Carolina State University. The professional design and layout make this public course a favorite golfing destination.
