Golden Meadows
By Jessica Carcoana · Updated September 2026
Golden Meadows lies between the fairways of Collindale Golf Course and Harmony Road, east of Lemay Avenue, with single-family homes built from 1980 to 1995 on lots of 0.12 to 0.20 acres beneath a tree canopy that has had four decades to fill in. The 160-acre municipal course forms the north edge, while the Power Trail runs along the east side, where Golden Meadows Park at 4342 McMurry Avenue offers a fishing pond, fitness course, tennis and pickleball court, turf fields, and a playground next to Kruse Elementary. The retail corners at Harmony Road and Lemay Avenue are under half a mile from the south end of the subdivision on foot. Lemay Avenue and Harmony Road are each about two minutes by car, College Avenue is five minutes west, and the Power Trail links north to Edora Park and south toward Trilby Road.
