The facility is huge, with 16 indoor pickleball courts and 8 golf simulators. It's a little tucked away behind a UPS location, so when you turn in just head toward the back and you'll find it. They also serve food and have a full bar, which makes it easy to hang out before or after games. I usually grab a few beers while playing but the beer is a bit pricey in my opinion. Overall, it's a fun time. Check out their website for pricing and details on what they have to offer.

You would likely miss it if you did not have a map telling you where to turn. There is a pretty decent amount of parking and it is always moving from people coming and going. The actual courts are located up a set of stairs once you get in the warehouse. The area is expansive and a great use of the space. They have a bar, they have an area of for spectating, they have putting greens, ping pong tables, and 16 pickleball courts. While I have come as part of a league, this seems like it would be a great place for a pick up game of pickleball.

I've used the ball machine multiple times which is great for a hitting session. Wish there was an option to control it remotely, cause you have to run all the way to the other side once you turn it on and there's no delay on the machine. I do wish the process to reserve a court was simpler. You can't reserve through the plan2play app which isn't great to begin with. You need to call and reserve and it usually takes a couple minutes to do that

Typically I will head over to my local park and play with other strangers, but when it got cold outside I turned to Peak Sports to give me the space to play during the winter. Peak is a facility in Apex that hosts both pickleball and badminton. I don't play badminton, so I will focus on the pickleball. There are seven pickleball courts within Peak, with two of the seven usually being held for small group reservations. Throughout the day, all of the other courts have general open play, where you bring your own paddle and play pick up games with friends or strangers. Peak uses a phone app to monitor and control the amount of people within the facility, so that a good flow of games occur. The courts themselves are relatively below average when it comes to indoor facility courts. Instead of the traditional outdoor feel, Peak uses a rolled out mat that acts as their court. It is more slick, so I am more prone to slipping on the court, plus the texture of the court makes it so that the ball has extra spin on fast hits. For a real feel outdoor court in an indoor facility, I would point to Pin Point in Raleigh for that. The best thing about Peak in my opinion is the community of players there. All of the staff is really nice and I have met some of my best pickleball friends here. Peak also offers various classes, leagues and tournaments so that you can consistently improve. I would say that a lot of my recent growth as a player has come from playing at Peak. You have the option to become a member here starting at around $89/month, or you can pay every time you want to join an Open Play session. While I wouldn't say that Peak is the absolute best indoor facility for pickleball, it has given me lots of opportunities for improvement and a place to play to avoid the frigid temperatures!

Despite the pandemic, they are working to provide recreation programs and open facilities indoors and out, to the best of their ability. I enjoyed touring Benson and seeing ball fields, soccer fields, picnic shelters, the band stand home to summer concerts as soon as they can return, municipal park, sand volleyball, horseshoe pits, shuffleboard courts, playgrounds and the future site of a rehabbed space for a community center. While the Benson Civic Center at 1204 North Johnson shows its age, it was well maintained and designed for more active times. The weight room and cardio equipment are open with social distancing and masks required. The game room seemed so empty. There are two other under utilized meeting rooms due to the pandemic. The attached Benson Center for Active Aging was buzzing with volunteers at the clothing closet and also serves as a food pantry distribution site. Many virtual activities being offered as well.
