    If you are looking for a great place to play pickleball then this is the place to be. Ace…read morePickleball has the friendliest staff and they go above and beyond with each person that walks through the door. They are extremely welcoming. Felix, Michael, Jim and all of the staff are very personable. They even jump in to play if needed which is awesome. Ace has 12.5 courts (.5 being the warm up court). Next to the warm up court there is an area to stretch with a few machines available. There is also a break room with a microwave if you need to do some work or eat. The courts are divided into beginner, intermediate and advanced courts- although sometimes there can be players who are just using the court if it is open and may not reflect the level correctly. The courts and nets are sturdy and provide stability. Courts 1&2 and the 3 middle courts also have video recording if you download playsight. It is really easy to use. Ace also offers a titan ball machine to use along with hoppers to pick up the balls. They also offer demo paddles if you are interested. Ace pickleball is ALL inclusive which means you only need to pay for the membership and everything is included or purchase a daily drop in fee. So what are you waiting for? Join now!! :)

    My group and I have been here since opening day and it's been a great time! The open play concept…read moreis awesome and it's all included in the membership price! At the moment, there is a $30 membership trial, so I definitely suggest it. There's 14 courts, all open play. Which means, if it's busy, all courts are open for anyone to put their paddle on the rack and cycle in. It's a great way to meet people but also play against different playstyles. There are 3 court levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. So of course, play at the level you feel comfortable at. The staff is really awesome to work with and they've been very helpful with everything. The club is also hosting more events so that's fun too! For private courts - they will have some available, on the app, only for non-peak hours. Peak hours = all open play. Also, if it's not busy, you can ask the front desk to borrow their Titan Pro Ball Machine, that thing is amazing for drills and practice. Highly recommend the place!

    Big City Pickle is one of my favorite spots to play. The courts are always in great condition, and…read morethe layout makes it easy to get games going without waiting around. The staff are friendly and helpful, making the whole experience smooth from booking to play. The environment is positive and welcoming -- whether you're playing competitively or just for fun, it feels like a good community. If you're looking for quality courts and a great vibe, this place delivers.

    Have played at this location a couple times, both with similar experiences. As popular as it is, I…read morefeel that it is more so for beginner Pickleball players. This past weekend while playing during their open play, it seemed very disorganized and all over the place. Although the courts are labeled by skill level, no one was really abiding by them and everyone just went for whichever courts were empty. The paddling up system is a little weird where you just leave your paddles on the side of the net where everyone can walk and it distracts you from the game. Same with the exterior of the courts; there is not much space to move back since people are constantly walking or sitting right behind you. There are no barriers so the balls fly all over the place and halt game play in the middle constantly. It's a nice hang out spot if you're looking for casual play or just to chill with drinks and other games. For seasoned Pickleball players like myself, the setup might become a little frustrating.
