Welcome to my “Guide to Wake Forest”! Wake Forest is situated less than 10 miles North of Raleigh, NC. This town offers a great way to soak in the small town charm while being accessible to larger city living. I have gathered resources that I find will be most helpful in navigating your way through town {as well as some fun stuff along the way}. I hope you find them useful!
