I love that you can just hop in with others and play with all different skill levels. The people are nice here and you just queue up to wait your turn if there is a wait.

As a beginner pickleball player, I've really enjoyed playing at the Method pickleball courts. There…read moreare six quality courts, with the left half usually set aside for beginner to intermediate players like myself and the right half for more advanced play. It does get busy on weekends, but the queueing system works well--just put your paddle in the rack and wait for your turn. Even if you're solo, it's easy to find open slots and join games, which makes it a great spot to meet other players. The only downside is that refilling your water can be tricky, so make sure to bring a large water bottle. If you get hungry, Neomonde is a great quick option just down the street. Overall, I've found everyone at the courts to be welcoming and inclusive, making it a great environment for newcomers like me.

In Chapel Hill, "The Farm" refers to the private club of the UNC Faculty-Staff Recreation…read moreAssociation. It's kind of like a country club, but without a golf course. There are tennis courts, pickleball courts, swimming and diving pools, outdoor rock climbing walls, a gym, an outdoor basketball court, disc golf, beach volleyball, a clubhouse, playground, three shelters (pavilions) with wooden tables and benches, and more. Actually, it's more like a private park than a private country club. In terms of how nice The Farm is, I'd say it's on a public park level. When I saw The Farm is private, I was thinking it would be nicer and perhaps higher-end. Instead, it felt more like a small city park that happens to be private. My wife has been here multiple times for various UNC events. I attended one of the events with her. It took place at The Farm's clubhouse, the adjacent pavilion, and the playground. It was a family-friendly event. Parents brought their children who played on the playground. Food and drink were set up inside the clubhouse's kitchen. The clubhouse and overall grounds and facilities that I saw were modest. The shelter had string lighting lining the ceiling. The tables had a lot of what looked like dried-up paint/finger paint on them, presumably from kids' activities. It makes sense since the playground was right next to us. Also nearby was a bunch of bamboo which made for a good backdrop for group photos. During our Saturday afternoon visit, I saw people playing beach volleyball and the pool(s) looked busy. The Farm is located east of UNC campus, not far from the Chapel Hill-Durham border. It's off 54, accessible via Barbee Chapel Rd, just past UNC Finley Golf Course. It's due south from the Rizzo Center (south side of 54).

I've used the ball machine multiple times which is great for a hitting session. Wish there was an option to control it remotely, cause you have to run all the way to the other side once you turn it on and there's no delay on the machine. I do wish the process to reserve a court was simpler. You can't reserve through the plan2play app which isn't great to begin with. You need to call and reserve and it usually takes a couple minutes to do that

The facility is huge, with 16 indoor pickleball courts and 8 golf simulators. It's a little tucked away behind a UPS location, so when you turn in just head toward the back and you'll find it. They also serve food and have a full bar, which makes it easy to hang out before or after games. I usually grab a few beers while playing but the beer is a bit pricey in my opinion. Overall, it's a fun time. Check out their website for pricing and details on what they have to offer.

You would likely miss it if you did not have a map telling you where to turn. There is a pretty decent amount of parking and it is always moving from people coming and going. The actual courts are located up a set of stairs once you get in the warehouse. The area is expansive and a great use of the space. They have a bar, they have an area of for spectating, they have putting greens, ping pong tables, and 16 pickleball courts. While I have come as part of a league, this seems like it would be a great place for a pick up game of pickleball.

The bathrooms are almost always nasty, they either don't have toilet paper or don't have paper towels to dry your hands. If it's the summer time and you're taking your kids for the splash pad, bring water shoes. The floors are disgusting. The trashes get overflown and the flies are everywhere. I don't know who thought it was a great idea to have metal slides with no shade but if it's a peak summer day, you're not gonna want your kids going down those slides, especially if they've got shorts on, their butts will get fried. Also, not sure whose idea it was to have the wooden rocking toy thing for kids because those did not last long. The handles broke after a year. When it comes to usable things for kids to play on at this park, the options are extremely limited. I would've loved to see something that kids could actually climb on and slide from that wasn't meant to be poor installation art. The main thing our kids do when we're there is swing on the only two swings climb up in the big web net thing and roll down the turf hill. The only well-kept areas in this park are the Pickleball courts and the dog park. There's definitely ample parking. There's a community garden that you can look at. If you come at the right time when the figs are ripe, you can pick them right off the tree so that's nice.
