Both iTennis / iPickle are located within Arcadia County Park. The park is huge with lots of parking in various sections. Arcadia Tennis Center Pro Shop sells tennis rackets, pickleball paddles, both sports accessories, snacks, drinks, and more. They offer tennis and pickleball lessons, too. The young lady at the shop was super nice and helpful. I asked her a lot of questions. She was able to answer all of them. Thank you Michelle! I bought one Aquafina bottle of water to quench my thirst and support this fun establishment. There are 12 beautiful tennis courts and 8 permanent pickleball courts. They can be seen from the Santa Anita Ave side. They are not too visible on the Huntington Drive side. Free pickleball play is available without reservations on Courts 5-8 Monday through Friday from 12:00 PM - 4:00 PM and Saturday/Sunday from 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM. Courts 1-4 can be reserved for 2 hours @ $10 per person. That's so cool! Thanks iPickle!! They also offer free tennis play on Courts 11 & 12. Thanks iTennis! Please check out their website or call them for more details. I am so excited to try this place in the near future. I'm thinking about taking some pickleball lessons. Not sure if I want to take the full 8 weeks or a few classes just to try them out. I would like to have a professional access my pickleball skills and tell me where I stand in terms of skill level. Am I 3.0 or 3.5 or higher? I love both sports myself as I was a tennis player in my younger years and l am now a pickleball player in my older years. Highly recommend this amazing and fun facility for tennis and pickleball connoisseurs and/or anyone who's just starting out and learning to play these two amazing sports. Now let's play and have some fun! 0-0-2 or 0-0... let's go!

I love that it's free! So nice to have a place to play tennis in the community , the ability to…read morereserve for a time. And some free balls are available! Definitely coming back! The only thing is the instructions aren't super clear if it's your first time there. I was kind of treated like it should be obvious that you wait in that room where the couch is located and they sell pickle ball racquets in that same room. The worker asked me to come back at a specific time but didn't let me write my name on any list. I just came back at the specified time and they gave me the court number , I walked over and let the people know it was my turn and they left. Had a great time playing here!

Courts opened to the public was a non-member daily fee of $10. I couldn't make a reservation online as I ran into technical difficulty but could see that 1 pm had available courts. Upon arrival we were greeted by the tennis director, Nate, who was in the middle of a lesson. He offered us Court 1 after Venmo'd the fees. We happily plated for 3 hrs interrupted. Very nice facility and well maintained. Covered bench seating for our bags. They had a mini snack and drink shop inside the office where we checked in. There was a cash box to slip money into. We came back a second time and had another day of great tennis. Love that there is a nice tennis community in So Cal now when we visit again. Appreciated the hospitality where tennis lovers can come and enjoy their passion for the sport.

You can rent a court on some days, but we went on a Friday night where it was open play and you had to line up your paddle in the queue. Friday night was "Social Night" which means it was $15 to enter but you can stay anytime until closing time (2 am). You can bring your own chairs, food, and they even have food there for you to purchase. There were also fire pits and pickleball merchandise for you to purchase. Staff were friendly as well. Overall, a really cool pickleball spot in the area.

I've always admired Wimbeldon, not for the tennis, but for the courts. Oh man, what would it be…read morelike to play on grass! Sadly, in Southern California I can't think of a single set of courts that are not concrete. That is certainly the case here and because there is so little shade until late in the day, the five courts are like mini-heat islands just waiting to suck you dry. Ironically, the courts are hidden by these really large bushes that make them really hard to see. Yet, somehow, they provide almost no shade. So, if you play, go in the early evening when there is some shade and it's cool. The one thing I will say, however, is that because they are hidden, you can usually get a court. Just a head's up for any Yelp tennis players out there. Oh well - at least the heat gives me an excuse for my terrible game! Plus, its free! None of that paying for courts nonsense.

Can find lots of tennis balls behind... Bad part: the sun feels extra unforgiving while playing on the court than the sun say like next door.. Since the courts are blocked off from the outside world with the tall walls, there isn't much airflow to give u some relief breezes.. There isn't any light for when the sun set, nor is there a bathroom I think

I highly recommend this place for anyone who is looking for private lessons for themselves or for their kids. Very affordable pricing with real professionals. Best prices compare to others. I say give it a try. You won't regret it!

I always knew that these courts existed but I never got around to playing there until today. I feel…read moreso dumb for only just now getting around to it. First and foremost there's a huge parking lot so that's a breeze. There are 5 courts that are nicely surfaced, a few cracks here and there but nothing major. And best of all these courts are free to the public. With so many courts around the city charging now, it's nice to find well maintained courts at no cost. Also if you go during the day it always seems fairly empty. I've never gone after 5 or on the weekends but this will definitely me one of my go to spots during the day.

We totally didn't stop by here for a raid ;) Parking: The park has a directional parking lot with the entrance starting near the tennis courts. The exit will take you by the Hugo Reid Primary School. There's plenty of parking but be aware of the sign that cautions against the Foul Ball area closer to the baseball field. If you want to be closer to the play area, there's street parking available that can be accessed from De Anza Pl; just be kind to the residents living nearby. Environment: This place has plenty of amenities. There are 3 tennis courts as well as a baseball field, batting cages (indoor and out), and a play area. The play area is closer to the Primary school and even has handball courts. Occasionally, you might spot some peafowl here too. The parking lot puts you in close proximity to the tennis courts, batting cages, and the baseball field. According to the sign, you'll need to get a permit to use the baseball field. Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. This park is pretty nice. It's well maintained and has lots to keep you entertained. The grass area is huge and you can easily take a nice walk around; too bad there isn't a walking path.

One of my favorite parks in the area--…read more I originally heard of this park after a recommendation on where to host a baby shower/ park picnic. We ended up renting a large picnic shelter and it is actually in high demand during the summer time (rented out in June for an August date). Despite a very warm day (mid-high 90s) the shelter kept us relatively cool. The kids loved the space-themed playground and the large shelter can host up to 180 or so people whereas the smaller shelter can host up to 50 or so people. (+): experience with renting out the shelter- benches were clean, employees were nice (+): amenities of the park- tennis courts, large walking area, multiple parking lots, basketball courts Overall, I would come here again and also consider renting out the park shelters.

They have a designated walkway for people who are running/walking, basketball courts, tennis courts, pickleball courts, playground, and spaceship in the middle. It's newly renovated which makes the quality a lot smoother than before. Restrooms are available as well near the courts and also near the playground area. Parking is plentiful in parking lot but can fill up quick. Street parking is also available for free. There's 8 pickleball courts, which fills up quick these days. You can queue up with your paddles when it's full. The pickleball community here is great, on the weekends there's people who manage it voluntarily which is nice for newcomers. Overall, a great renovated park, very clean, friendly people, and spacious.

Only place I know within reasonable driving distance near me where you don't have to share a court…read morewith strangers or sit around and wait your turn to play tennis or pickleball. Who wants that? Of course, you need a paid membership here for that privilege. Membership is tiered and you can pay just to play tennis or pickleball and the highest tier allows access for all the courts, including the squash and racketball ones inside. With a paid membership and through their app, you can book a time slot to reserve your court. Hardest times to get are around 5 pm and up on weeknights as those are considered prime times. Weekends during the day are usually easier to get as well, although after 7 pm the courts are open to the public and everyone in LA comes out and it's the wild west. Everyone floods the best courts - 5 and 6 which are dedicated pickleball courts, the only 2 in the compound - and then you get a real spectacle of players, from average to really good players. There is an elitist expectation it seems that only good players are allowed to play on these two courts, which is just laughable and leaves a stink of pickleball snobiness all around. But oh well. Just as a side rant here: anyone can play pickleball and be good at it. You don't have to be incredibly athletic to excel. Just go out and watch and you'll know what I'm talking about. Another annoyance is that eiquette and basic courtesy are often compromised during these open hours. Some times, you'll have a few rude idiots that just walk through your court instead of coming in from the outside. I don't know what it is, but pickleball seems to attract a lot of people who lack self awareness! Everything is on the honor system as there's nobody there to really enforce your reservation, so sometimes you'll get some who play over their allotted time. Just kindly ask them to leave and usually they comply. Then there's the real rare occasion where they give you attitude for some reason. Just hilarious. Imagine fighting over a court that doesn't belong to you? Lmfao! The whole compound is fenced in so you have to go through the main entrance to get in. I saw one guy jump over the fence once to get inside. How desperate are you to play, bro? Just pay for a membership like any other productive member of society. At any rate, all the other courts other than 5 and 6 are tennis courts that can be converted in half to 2 pickleball courts (there are movable nets on each court). The other fenced courts on the north end are all dedicated tennis courts. Inside the facility, there are some squash and racketball spaces that seem to always be occupied. There's even a gym inside for members, but the equipment there is pretty basic and sparse. As for making reservations, the app acts funky sometimes and you can't get a reservation even though there are open spots. You just have to keep trying or call the shop and they'll help out. Other than a few annoyances mainly from the non members, it's a great place to play tennis and pickleball day and night!
