Pickleball Facilities and Court Information

You'll love our state-of-the-art facility featuring six dedicated indoor pickleball courts. Each court boasts professional-grade cushioned surfaces that are easy on your joints while providing excellent ball response. The LED lighting system ensures perfect visibility without any harsh glare, making it ideal for both daytime and evening play.

Getting court time is a breeze with our online booking system. While weekday mornings and weekend afternoons tend to be our busiest times, we maintain flexible hours to accommodate various schedules. During winter months, our indoor courts are particularly popular, but we also have four outdoor courts available during fair weather – perfect for those who enjoy playing in the fresh air!

We've designed our membership packages to suit every player's needs. Our basic membership starts at $49/month, while our premium tier at $89/month includes perks like priority booking and free guest passes. Speaking of guests, they're always welcome! Daily guest passes are available for $15, and we offer a 5-pass bundle for $65.

Drop-in sessions run throughout the week, with dedicated times for different skill levels. Monday and Wednesday mornings are particularly popular for our 50+ crowd, while Friday evening sessions attract our younger players. Remember, members can book courts up to seven days in advance, while non-members can book 48 hours ahead.
