A pastoral town between Richmond and Newport News

Charming Pastoral Wooded Suburban Lake

A charming small town between Richmond and Newport News, Toano offers residents a central location nearing the Chesapeake Bay. Home to Little Creek Reservoir, the name for an expansive body of water and its adjoining green space, locals can fish, swim, kayak, boat, and more. This kid- and dog-friendly green space offers a playground, a fishing dock, and walking trails through the scenic woods of Toano. This small town boasts a close-knit community and a pastoral feel. Toano is mainly residential, and renters in the area enjoy the spacious lots, tree-lined streets, and sense of seclusion that this suburb offers. Commuters can easily travel into nearby metro areas along Interstate 64. For more outdoor recreation and adventure, check out York River State Park and the Chickahominy Wildlife Management Area.
