We went there for an event and the staff ensured everyone was taken care of and had a wonderful time. 2. The location. The courts are located on the 4th floor of City Point and what makes that cool is you can explore shopping, food, and movies before or after your tennis session, all within the same building. We did just that and it added to the experience. 3. The cleanliness of the facility. Everything from the courts to the restrooms were top notch. 4. The trainers. We got to meet and work with a couple of different trainers. They were engaging, warm, and could clearly teach any level. I have been playing tennis for years and still walked away learning something new. I love when that happens. Thank you to everyone @ Court 16 - Brooklyn for being amazing. My son is now asking for us to go play some tennis together....

I made 2 new friends as well! We will be in the same group again next week. Can't wait to go back and I had tons of fun as well. THANK YOU ALEX & PROSPECT PARK TENNIS!

The decor itself is very much classic Americana, with deep blue carpets the hallways, giant rugs, and paintings and art and statues everywhere. We were invited there to go to a charity poker tourney, I think one of the partners was a member there, and women were allowed as it was a charity/social event. One note - all members and guests were required to wear suit & tie. They have spare ties if you didn't have one with you. If you had a bag, there was a coat and bag check near the front. Member names I think on the wall behind the concierge, and you had a room at the front if you insisted on talking on a phone.

The bathrooms and locker area are extremely clean and well maintained. The only negative I have to say about this place is the elevator. Dang, that thing is slow. Like, really slow.

Website is easy for booking (high demand admittedly) and courts are in good shape. Front desk can be a bit lackadaisical, but I mean most everything is automated and straightforward. I've taken a couple of lessons and they were fine. Not life changing but not bad. Prices are not cheap, but to be honest that just seems competitive with and comparable to other city tennis options. if there's something to complain about here, I guess it's a certain segment of the clientele. It's a mix of amateur enthusiasts just having a good time like myself and, you know...some people who think they're one lesson away from topping Roger or Serena and stalk around in a Johnny Mc mood. So while many are friendly people sharing the court with you, may have to deal with some snarling if a ball goes awry into another court or there's a second delay in court changeover. Don't really think that's McCarren's fault though--I just roll my eyes and go back to enjoying my fun little tennis hobby.

Buyers beware! $600+ of bought credits went down the drain…read more Bought a package of 5 private lessons last year (worth $600+), but was unable to use those credits because they migrated to a new IT system, and they did not transfer those credits to the new system. Contacted them to transfer those credits over to the new system, but they did not respond to either email or phone calls. Now those $600+ worth of credits are going to expire, so paid them for nothing.

We just hosted my son's birthday party here, and even with minimal decorations, the party looked incredible because the space stands on its own. There was plenty of room for both kids and parents -- far more space than any tennis facility I looked at in Manhattan. But what truly sets this place apart is the staff. They went above and beyond to make the experience feel special, putting so much thought into every detail. The party was seamless, well-organized, and most importantly, every kid had an absolute blast. We loved it so much that we'll definitely be returning for lessons. Could not recommend more highly.

Alas, thanks to Google, I saw 6 outdoor hardcourts at this park called Fort Greene (never been to Fort Greene Park before). We went on a sunny workday afternoon. There are 6 courts and during the hour we played, 5 of them were taken. There was a NYC Parks and Rec lady working the courts checking for NY Tennis Permits. So your tennis permit is valid and required here. There are a couple long arteries of cracks that go through all courts. Oddly enough, the ball kept on finding those cracks and making funny bounces. Courts 3-4 are the best with 1 being the worst. Short weeds are also growing out of the cracks. But you know what, it's an available tennis court near work. In a city such as NY where tennis time is highly sought after, I wasn't about to complain. We had a great time during that sunny day hitting a few tennis balls on the court.

They offer deals on their packages year round and unless you're booking a court during prime time, are surprisingly affordable. I had my first lesson today and found the pro very helpful and amiable.
