Prairie Meadows This 230-acre planned community of single family homes and townhomes is nestled amid four parks and a trail system in Big Lake. Just minutes from the proposed Northstar Commuter Rail station with convenient access to local schools and the Big Lake Business Park, Prairie Meadows currently offers single family homes from our select builders, with executive home lots planned for 2007 in our newest neighborhood, The Oaks at Prairie Meadows. Lots are available for builders in Prairie Meadows Second Addition. Protective covenants are in place to control land use and provide architectural design standards. Alterations to the home or lot may require approval of the Architectural Committee.
