Horseshoe Farm Nature Preserve consists of approximately 146 acres on an oxbow of the Neuse River in northeastern Wake County. There's an old farmhouse with open fields and plenty of woods. A few ancient pieces of farm equipment were still lying there last time I visited. It's very peaceful and there's good parking.
