Rural Neighborhood in Harvest, Alabama

When you live in Toney, Mother Nature is your next-door neighbor. Nature trails, fishing, horseback riding and other outdoor activities are the name of the game here. When locals want to branch out, the larger cities of Huntsville and Birmingham are close at hand, with Highway 53 cutting through the neighborhood.
Toney is made up of ranch-style houses and larger Craftsman-style estates. Hyde Homes, a developer in the area, has a few subdivisions in Toney. Kendall Trails offers brick Craftsman homes with attached garages and spacious front yards. The subdivision is developing scenic walking trails for residents as well. Kendall Farms, an “agrihood,” is coming to Toney soon. An agrihood is essentially a neighborhood incorporating farmland into its planning so residents can enjoy a sustainable farm-to-table lifestyle. Residents will be able to get their hands dirty and grow their own produce in the communal gardens while reducing waste by composting. Home prices in Toney range from $235,000 to $415,000.
Children in the area attend Madison Cross Roads Elementary School, ranked number two in standout elementary schools in the Huntsville area by Niche, receiving an A- overall rating from the website. The school feeds into Sparkman Middle School, which has an overall Niche score of B and is a Blue Ribbon Lighthouse School of Excellence, a CLAS School of Distinction and a Solution Tree Model Professional Learning Community School. Area teens attend Sparkman High School, which boasts an A- overall Niche score, with a B+ score in Academics, an A score in diversity and a B+ in college prep.
Just north of Toney is Red Coach Resort, an RV campsite with trails, koi ponds, creeks, tubing and swimming holes. You don’t need to camp there to use the facilities—many locals opt to get a $5 day pass to enjoy the looping one-and-a-half-mile trail or to float in the creek. Toney is also an oasis for horse girls and horse boys alike, with equestrian centers nearby. Oak Meadows Stables offers horsemanship lessons, including routine care, grooming handling, and riding. Local athletes flock to Madison Crossroads Community Center, not far from the high school. The community center has gathering spaces, an indoor basketball court and other sporting facilities. Youth leagues practice home runs at Blue Water Springs Park, which features baseball and softball fields. South of Toney is Harvest Square Nature Preserve, which offers over two miles of beautiful trails, ponds, fishing piers and plenty of chances to spot native wildlife. Thirty-three of the preserve’s acres are used for farming, while the remaining 36 acres are home to deer, turkey, raccoons, foxes, beavers and various amphibians.
The Gonzalez family has been serving authentic Mexican cuisine to the community for over two decades at their restaurant El Paso. The neighborhood gem is sure to satisfy any cravings for burritos, fajitas and other Mexican fare. Nearby is Marissa’s Grille, where wings, burgers and crinkle-cut fries are on the menu. When residents of Toney want to branch out, Highway 53 is there to sweep them away to downtown Huntsville, Nashville or Birmingham. This neighborhood’s main appeal is country living amid gorgeous natural surroundings.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
