They do special events and decorations on holidays too which is appreciated. Thank you Jason & Amy for taking a second look at our situation! We will continue with swim and other classes they offer for our special needs family member. Instructor Bee is great and all the instructors think of ways to teach for special needs.

It's so nice to see this place still going strong. It looks just as wonderful as I remember, and…read morethe inside is still so well kept after all these years. My 12-year-old son is playing here now, and I played here myself about 20 years ago, which makes it really special and nostalgic for me. It's also still a great spot to catch a game and spend time with family. You can tell it's always been well cared for, and I'm truly glad it continues to be maintained so nicely. I'm looking forward to enjoying it for many more years.

The place has good business with nice customers, who care about the place and bring great tennis. Mark always cared about the clients and always had the latest information on racquets. recently I came in on a Sunday to watch my son's League play to find another coach in charge. He instructed the boy at the front desk to wash courts, and the boy responded that he had jeans/close toed shoes on and wasn't dressed for washing courts because he wasn't told in advance that he'd be washing courts. The coach responded, "just roll up your jeans and go barefoot." The coach later instructed another girl to help him, and she replied that she wasn't dressed for it either and didn't have sandals, and that "sometimes there's glass on court." The man dismissed her comment with a sarcastic response and complained about her coworker to her: "he doesn't want to wash courts because he's not dressed for it. can you believe it? All you have to do is go barefoot and roll up his jeans." The courts should be washed more often than OTC does in my opinion, but I believe it's a serious liability for both the company and the employees. I couldn't believe the manager's sarcastic response.......... He didn't care about the safety of his employees!!! And what kind of manager gossips about other employees to others? So unprofessional. It was WAY better when Mark was running the place. If you come to OTC watch out. They should really treat their employees better. I don't know how they can take care of their customers if they don't care about their employees just as well.

For example, they have two different glute stations, an olympic-lifting station with bumper plates, squat racks, a smith machine - and much more. Dumbbells and plates are high quality. Many different cable stations, including top-of-the-line freemotion machines. Good cardio area, too. Diverse selection of members. All shapes and sizes - from beginners to serious athletes and physique competitors. Everyone seems to get along beautifully from what I can tell. Owners are experts in their field and are gracious about answering questions. Wish I'd found this place sooner. So far, it has been a very good fit for me. Highly recommended.

The Bad: My very…read morefirst issue is between them and Groupon. They currently have a Groupon for a package of eight. Nowhere on there does it say you cannot use that for a party. It actually talks about parties and what's included in them. So I purchased it and then when I called to make the reservation, they said you cannot use the Groupon towards the party or for a party. So now I'm out that money and trying to get it back from Groupon. When you pull up, you will see that the entire property is run down; crumbling structures, broken structures and nails sticking out of wooden planks and beams, and dilapidated old electrical cable spools sitting on the ground that have been there for I don't know how long. It also appears that most of the nets are ripped as well. One of the main access points to the field is actually a huge tear they just walk through. We came for a party and filled out all waivers beforehand, but they weren't even checked or verified. I had 8 kids with me that were not mine, and no one thought to check us in one by one. I called days prior to arriving and asked if we should be there early for any reason and was told no because there was only 1 seating area for parties and there was a 9-1 party and a 1 -5 party so there would be no time for set up, but I could decorate or hang banners and decorate at 1 (I had the 1-5 party) once the party started at 1. We got there on time like requested and it was a chaotic mess. Our table was not set up, we did not have enough guns for our reserved party 11, 4 of 10 masks were broken, we had no canopy and when we asked for one, they only had a broken one that my husband had to help put up. Meanwhile there was another party there who had a canopy and all of their equipment complete and nicely lined up and I was told that was because they were an hour early. If you've never been to Santa Paula or Stryker, it is HOT out there. That being said, there are minimal canopies available that work or are not broken. We asked if they had an extra one and we would even pay to rent and they said they only had a broken one we can try and use. The worker and my husband did their best to put it up and we tried to make due but it just wasn't cutting it. Oh, and we found one later laying up against a fence that wasn't being used and looked perfectly fine! They have built in ones made of beams and sheet metal (work pretty decent for shade and protection). There are not enough to cover each picnic table or sitting area. When a "9-1" party vacated this are at 2 PM, we moved our party over there to the shaded area. After we sat down and moved our stuff, one of the staff asked us to move because it was Airsoft parties only (literally all tables are in the same 50 square foot space). I asked how many tables they needed, and the worker said IDK maybe 3 (there were 4). I said OK well I need 2 and I am not sitting in the sun with a broken canopy when I paid just as much as the other party and also had reservations just like they did and sat down at these tables first. I ended up getting to use 2 of the 4 tables and none of the other party ever used the other 4 tables. It was really a strange interaction. They only managed to round up 10 of 11 sets of gear so my husband didn't get to officially play until the last hour. Once the guns and helmets arrived, they asked where our paintballs were (I pre-purchased online from Stryker). We then had to wait for those as well. After an hour, my kids finally got on the field. The Good: While the staff was inefficient, they were very nice and polite. I think they really needed more staff and some guidance on site. Their boss was off site for the day for personal reasons. I can at least speak for Maddie and Xavier being calm and kind because I know running into every possible issue with my party had to be stressing them out. You can order Amecis pizza through them. They will order it and get it to you by a certain time. Make sure you have your own plates, toppings, ranch, etc though! However, this is a nice option to not have to worry about lunch. After all of these issues I did call and speak to the owner and he was understanding and apologetic and kind. He didn't try to make any excuses but he did let me know he was not on site that day for personal reasons and that made the difference and he would make some changes going forward and offered to try and make it right for me in whatever way he could. If everything had gone accordingly, I would say that the prices are fair, even though the facility is run down, it has a large playing area, and there are lots of things to do and the referees do seem to enjoy their jobs for the most part. In the end, the most important part, is MY SON HAD FUN. He wants to go back. I might be crazy because I would never throw a party here again, but I would probably allow my son to go back.

When my friends and I completed our beginner level lessons at Juanamaria, we talked about trying the Open Play here at Harry A Lyon Park. We were all a little doubtful we were good enough to hang with the Open Play players. Well, I had to find out. My coach at Juanamaria told me to come here and find Doreen, the woman in charge of Open Play. I found her, introduced myself and told her I wanted to play. There wasn't a game immediately available so, in the process of evaluating me, Doreen gave me what amounted to a private lesson. I was super impressed. It was such a generous gift. I learned a hell of a lot! Doreen immediately ascertained what level I was at and matched me with some players that were cool with playing a beginner. I was really grateful for Doreen steering me into the right game, and also appreciative of the players that welcomed me into their game. Very nice players! As it turns out, you are likely to run into all levels of players here during Open Play. There are a lot of very, very high level players. It's super fun to watch them play! But there are also a large number of average players, eager to improve their game. As far as I could tell there weren't any players worse than me. LOL. But I'm cool with that because everyone I've met at Open Play at Harry A Lyons Park has been hella cool. People are competitive, sure, but not obnoxiously so. Mostly you run into people that are clearly having a good time. Way more laughing at than cursing at their misplays. So, particularly if you are new to Pickleball and wanting to get some practice, I highly recommend checking out the Open Play here at Harry A Lyon Park. Especially if you are worse that me. There's an immediate need for weak players so I can start winning some games!
