Preserve
can be accessed through this preserve although no trails have been laid. 
Our 5-acre Martin Lake preserve, acquired in 1983, is a
high knob with a significant stand of white, red and chinquapin oaks.
There are no trails in or to the preserve. It is open by permission only
and you can reach the property by either following the edge of the field
in the Peterman Preserve to it or walking back along the road and slipping
through the fence at the ACRES property line signs.
