You’ll find Biscayne Street off of Bob Wallace Avenue. Several houses have their homes decked out. I love admiring the hard work of the families who’ve decorated their homes.

Thanks to all the people in “What’s happening in Huntsville” on Facebook who recommended this stop!

4. Todd Mill Road

After Biscayne Street, I headed to my next recommended stop. Driving down Todd Mill Road, I thought I’d missed the house. Then, I saw it. Trust me, there’s no missing this house.

Pull over and throw on your hazards for a light show. But wait, there’s more! Tune into 106.9 for some holiday hits to go with the lights on the house and in the yard.

5. Cove Valley Drive

On Cove Valley Drive, you’ll find the incredible light display put on by the Hall Family. Known as the Hall Family Light Show, you’ll find over 250,000 lights. Turn the radio to 107.1.

You don’t want to miss this one. The Hall Family Light Show will be going on until New Years Day.
