Luis Rodas· a year agoThere are 6 pickleball courts that all rotate at the same time. Most nights wait time is pretty short to get a court. Level of play includes some beginners but mostly intermediates. Bathrooms are inside the recreation center. A very consistent group of players that are pretty friendly.
Divine Shakti· 5 months agoThis is my favorite Pickleball court. It’s not as busy as the other ones and each court is enclosed, so your balls don’t go into other people’s courts.
Nathan Miller· a year agoThey have 6 nice new pickleball courts, however, they are only open from 7:00-9:00a.m. and 4:30-9:00 p.m. during the summer.
