Baxter Meadows
Established northwest Bozeman community with trails, parks, Bridger Mountain views, and a mix of homes for every budget.
About Baxter Meadows
Baxter Meadows is one of Bozeman's most popular neighborhoods, located in the northwest part of the city off Baxter Lane. The subdivision offers a balanced mix of condominiums, townhomes, and single-family residences on well-sized lots — making it accessible to first-time buyers and move-up buyers alike.
The neighborhood borders Chief Joseph Middle School and is adjacent to the 100-Acre Gallatin County Regional Park. A dedicated 10-acre community park with playgrounds, plus an extensive trail system and open green spaces, give the area a connected, outdoorsy feel without leaving the city.
Homes range from classic two-story designs to newer builds with modern floor plans. Baxter Meadows West, a newer section, features more contemporary architecture. The convenient location off Baxter Lane puts 19th Avenue retail, Oak Street dining, and downtown Bozeman all within 10 minutes.
