I've been playing on these courts for over 10 years -- first as SPOT Clay court -- until the…read moreProvidence Tennis Academy took it over around 7-8 years ago, I believe (as of this writing). A lot of improvements have been made since then to get this to the level it is today. There are 10 clay courts, two pickleball courts added, a pro shop, a reception shed, a bathroom (quite a walk away), and a portable restroom. USTA games are hosted here, and that speaks to the condition of the courts. There is also a system that enables casual players to find matches with similarly skilled players. The courts are open from late spring to early fall -- so long as there's light outdoors, there should be play available. There are portable lights as needed. The bathroom door lock has always been a challenge -- not a big deal, but after all these years, the former owner and the new owner -- it feels like it should have been taken care of by now. A door replacement is in order, really. Ample parking except for when there are events at the park or the baseball field right next to the courts. This is a vibrant place -- get ready to play outdoors with loud motorcycle groups riding along the main park street, loud music, and sometimes the smell of something being smoked (hint). We regulars take all that in stride. The staff here is excellent -- they are usually College athletes. There are clinics, of course, for all levels and private lessons as well. An option for membership or drop-in play exists. I have paid for a summer membership on and off. I have to admit that sometimes I sense preferential treatment for those who spend more in these courts. Overall, reasonably priced for outdoor play. Every year, the academy runs a ONE Love Providence program to help the youth learn tennis for free. This is a great program. The fact that it exists within Roger Williams Park is a big plus. You can go anywhere in the park after a match or even before. I definitely recommend these courts to tennis and pickleball enthusiasts alike.

From the owner: We are tennis in Rhode Island! We do everything on and off court! Contact us today!read more

I absolutely love this pool club. It's humongous, clean and fun. There's a basketball court, huge…read moresoccer field and a tennis court. There's a kiddie pool for toddlers and another really big pool for the adults and advance swimmers. There's an eating area and they also gave bbq's for dinner (not for free) lol, but they have really good prices. Overall it's a really nice place to spend your afternoons or night since they're open until late!

Not like other private pool clubs with a preppy feel. Snack bar has great food and a decent variety. Great place considering the day to day staff is mostly in their late teens. Kendbrin will always have a special place in my heart.

Glow in the dark paddleboats review: First off with the…read morepaddle oats, the musuem and the pumpkins there is way too much happening in the park and not enough parking! 2nd: the paddleboat employees ask you don't linger and keep moving. So enjoying your $ spent goes very fast. 3rd: 2 adults and I 1 kid you can all fit but I know we were squished! 4th: we did not get wet. It was a fear of mine (driving home wet=not fun) This was a perfect event on a Friday night for a 4 year old but I don't think my husband was pleased...

My review is for the toddler classes over seen by Coach Jay. First, they're so affordable. You pay…read morefor an 8 week period and it comes out to about $11 a class which is great. Second, Jay always makes sure to have a clear beginning (clean up!) and end (go team) which is great for my toddler to understand when she has to start focusing and listening to coach and he always goes a little longer so you get about a full hour. My little one uses this time to interact with other kids and we are only in our second class and she already throws, kicks, and runs at home now. It takes all the kids a few classes to warm up but coach Jay is really patient and knows everyone's name.
