This is more than a gym, it's a rec center. Every Saturday morning there's dirt cheap yoga going on…read morein the group class room while 7 year olds celebrate birthday parties with bouncy houses on the basketball courts. When I leave I always see a senior group playing cards in meeting room. There are big pickup games during the afternoon among kids. I say all this because I want the reader to know the context of this review, which is just about the gym. Layout This place is somewhat small, but new and has pretty much everything you need. They have one squat rack, dumb bells that go up to 100#, cardio machines, and two tvs. Everything is very clean, I think because it's used so little. You will usually find three people in the gym at most. This crowd is super casual. You have the occasional high schooler, but no brosefs. All in all I like this space a lot. Classes From what I understand a lot of group classes cost extra, like dirt cheap yoga. I tried out the yoga class and really liked it. For me it was the perfect balance of difficulty and intensity. Actually I think I liked this class more than any studio class I've taken, be it Equinox or sync studios. Cost This place is a bargain. I've made it my gym for the moment. Don't worry though I am planning on checking out more gyms.

I was there today for an event that a private organization set up. I didn't know where in the park…read moreit was taking place. The staff was very rude when I asked... they said "oh it's right over there." I asked how far and the tall African American man "it's literally 200 yards away dude!" I said thank you and responded with calling me "Bro". I am a disabled veteran and I have never been to that part of town before. Also, I'm not his friend or his brother. I am deserving of respect. He is a public servant as an employee of my city! Learn some manners young man. Get some decent staff City of Dallas!!

This will sound strange but I'm leaving four stars for a pickleball place I myself will not likely…read morefrequent. I love Preston Playhouse - it's a really cool rec center offering pickleball, padel and a bar to relax for work events and family/friend get-togethers. In DFW there are what I call "Pickleball Operations" and "Places That Offer Pickleball." Unfortunately where I am in the game, Preston Placehouse is more of a "Place That Offers Pickleball" - which isn't what I'm looking for but may be great for you. The courts are colorful and (mostly) in great shape and the spacing is pretty good. They have morning ($10) and evening ($15) open plays which isn't the most expensive in town but not the cheapest. The Open Plays are All Levels, so a bit of a gamble in terms of the quality of player you will find. Last night I found some really good ones but there weren't many. When I first went there there were more, but it seems like they may be choosing places like Pickler Universe and The Picklr. Preston Playhouse though is a fun atmosphere and great place to bring friends or your own group but it's not a pickleball community focused on ramping up competition or teaching skills and it doesn't try to be.

Preston Playhouse is a great addition to the Dallas pickleball scene! It's perfect for casual play…read morewith friends or a private event. While we were there for our private event, there was a tournament wrapping up, others who rented individual courts with friends, and a birthday party. - The space: Preston Playhouse is in an old, air conditioned gym so the courts are set up in an open area with a bar / lounge space and arcade games. There are 9 pickleball courts, 2 padel courts, and a swimming pool. - The service: We were easily able to schedule a private event via email. There was someone onsite to ensure everything went smoothly. We had paddles and balls for our group, snacks ordered via catering, and drink tickets. Our bartender provided great drink recommendations and the coconut lime mocktail was the favorite of the group. - The pricing: Preston Playhouse has monthly memberships that receive discounted rates, but non-members can book courts and participate in open play at a slightly higher price. For our event, the courts were $50/court/hour with a minimum of two courts. Equipment, pickleball pros, food, and beverage were all optional add ons. I appreciated that there wasn't a food and beverage minimum like many other pickleball spots in the area.
