Meadowood Park

Park Overview

Located in Aurora, Colorado, Meadowood Park is a 10.7-acre green space in a quiet setting. Situated on S. Laredo St., the park sits within the Meadowood neighborhood.

What makes this park special? Its location set back from main streets creates a genuinely peaceful atmosphere - something that's becoming increasingly rare in urban settings. Plus, being next to a community center and preschool gives it that warm, family-friendly vibe that makes you feel right at home.

Recreational Facilities

For sports enthusiasts, Meadowood offers several options. The park features a baseball/softball diamond where you can channel your inner major leaguer or just toss a ball around with friends on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

The park also features tennis courts and basketball courts. The basketball courts, in particular, seem to be a local favorite - ideal for shooting hoops or joining a pickup game if you're feeling social.

Family-Friendly Features

Got kids? The thoughtfully designed playground area is a winner for the younger crowd. From toddlers taking their first wobbly steps to pre-teens with energy to burn, the equipment here scales nicely for different ages.

The playground comes equipped with slides galore, plenty of climbing options, and toddler swings for the littlest visitors. A major plus is the padded turf surface throughout - because skinned knees are nobody's idea of a good time.

Parents will appreciate how the playground sits far back from the road and is partially enclosed, creating a safer environment for explorers of all sizes. By afternoon, trees cast welcome shade over the area - making it a comfortable spot even when the Colorado sun is showing off.

Picnic and Open Spaces

The park's open grassy areas invite you to spread out a blanket, unpack a picnic, or simply lie back and watch clouds drift by. Near the playground, you'll discover two picnic tables with benches and conveniently placed trash cans (because nobody enjoys chasing napkins across the park).

The grassy hill has become something of a local institution - kids love rolling down it during warmer months, and when snow blankets Aurora, it transforms into an ideal sledding spot. It's these simple pleasures that make Meadowood a year-round destination.

Trail Connections

Feeling adventurous? The park connects to the West Toll Gate Creek Trail, extending your outdoor options beyond Meadowood's boundaries. The trail accommodates walking, jogging, and biking along the creek.

Dog owners take note: your four-legged friends are welcome here, with plenty of paths around the area ideal for walking pets while soaking in the natural surroundings.

Facilities

One thing to keep in mind - the park doesn't have permanent restrooms, though portable toilets are available primarily around the sports courts. If you're planning to spend several hours exploring everything Meadowood has to offer, you might want to plan accordingly.
