Privately owned preserves
Non-profit or community organizations that hold properties in the public trust for the purposes of leisure=nature_reserve can be found in the National Conservation Easement Database managed by the Trust for Public Land and in the National Protected Areas Database (PAD-US) operated by the United States Geological Survey. Often to avoid property tax liabilities, these properties are made open to the public but this should be confirmed before tagging access=public.
