Confirmed from Meadowdale Playfields' own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Clean athletic park featuring ballfields and a playground, plus a duck pond.

“Meadowdale Playfields is one of the best parks and sports complexes in the area. The fields are always clean and well maintained, with plenty of space for kids and families to enjoy. The new playground is fantastic, and there are walking trails, restrooms, and lots of room for sports and activities.
Take my digs for walks here occasionally. Lots of parking. There's sports fields of all kinds so somedays it can get really busy. On game nights there's a food stand with the usual sports game snacks. TBH not sure exactly what they have. I've never bought anything from them.
Trail conditions & character
“Parking lot can get backed up up on exiting, field lights could use an upgrade to LED although I like the warm glow of the older style lights.”
