So many friendly people belong to this club, making it a real gem for fun and also competitive pickleball. The seating areas all around the courts are plentiful, so there is plenty of space there as well. While I haven't tried the beer here yet, I know everyone else really likes it. They just got a new ball machine which is really nice as well. I have no complaints, I just love this place. Kudos to Austin for running it so well, the Dink House wouldn't be the same without him.

The lighting is excellent. The 8 courts are divided by fencing and I think there's sufficient space between the fences and the sidelines (not true of other places that try to squeeze in as many courts as possible). The playing surface is first class. There's a nice beer and wine self serve area. Instruction is available and a shout out to Lora who is is superb with lessons. All in all, everything is first class.

Other amenities include a pro shop, locker rooms & showers, and a private space toward the back. Membership includes unlimited play and access to other clubs around the country. Because of the popularity of the sport, other pickleball facilities have popped up around the city. It might be worthwhile to shop around for locations and membership levels that work best for you.

I have taken semi-private lessons with Steve Hoy and Melissa. Both are great coaches. The open play for $5 is life saving during the brutal Indiana months. 3rd shot also holds fun events.

If you are looking to play pickleball at a beautiful facility with reasonable prices, come check out 3rd Shot off of Michigan and 96th street.

I've also tried a few of their ciders on tap, pretty cool system they've got going! Drink and pickle with caution! I'm still a beginner and learning, but everyone here is super welcoming. I've had the chance to rent the Titan ball machine and that was fun too. I love that they have demo paddles that you can try here as well. Highly recommend checking out for all levels.

I first learned about this place through my gym membership I…read moresaw that they offer Pickleball 101 for free and decided to try it out The pickleball 101 happens every 2 weeks and it's the best place to learn how to play pickleball After that we have started coming to this place and got their membership, it's $49.99 per month and includes both locations when the south side opens up. I've look at other pickleball places and I think this has the best deal when it comes to memberships! I like that this is indoors and year round! All the people I've met have been friendly and helpful and cannot recommend this place enough

I've spent some time at both locations and overall had a great experience at the east side. It's…read moreabout a 20+ minute drive for me, which is still doable. This location tends to have more people signed up for open play, so you do need to be quick about registering or be ready to join the waitlist. Unlike the newer facility, you do have to complete an assessment here (around $25) before joining open play, but it helps keep the games well matched. I really like that both locations offer "drills and skills" classes to help improve your game, and I'm hoping to join one soon. The only small downside is that the space between courts isn't separated by barriers, so balls can easily roll into other courts and interrupt games. I usually don't wait very long to jump into another game as they have their rotation system down. Overall, I think the membership is definitely worth trying, especially if you plan on taking advantage of both facilities.

I have waited weeks to post this review but time has not mitigated my anger at how my son and I…read morewere treated by the management of Carmel Racquetball Club. My 11-year-old son and I played pickleball for months at the Club then suddenly we were told that "liability" issues would prevent him from playing there again. My son is a very talented, mature player who got along very well with the adults, or so it seemed. Apparently one or more adults did not want a child playing regardless of skill level or temperament. That's selfish and intolerant but ultimately their decision. My problem is the hypocrisy of the management which allows tennis players my son's age or younger to play there on a regular basis but excludes my son. Is tennis a safer game than pickleball? In any case, no apology was made or workaround offered. I urge pickleball players to choose the Pearson Automotive Tennis Center; it's a much more welcoming place.

The Carmel Racquet Club clearly benefits from being the 'only game in town.' The location is…read moreobviously convenient as choices are limited for indoor courts north of Indianapolis. That said, the facilities themselves are well below par. The locker rooms and bathrooms are beyond outdated. Furthermore the locker rooms and bathrooms are extremely dirty. I am not sure these are even cleaned daily. And when the pool is open, which is not a guaranty, the cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. Our child went here for tennis lessons. Beware of missing a lesson - you will not be given a refund or allowed to reschedule. A no refund policy is understandable, if undesirable, however the fact that you can't reschedule is ridiculous. My child hurt their foot, was in a walking boot and the response from the club when attempting to reschedule - 'Too bad, no refunds or makeup classes under any circumstances.' Our 3 children have participated in many activities over 10 years and this is the only time we were not allowed a makeup class. I certainly wouldn't consider this good customer service. Do yourself a favor and avoid the Carmel Racquet Club. Between the poor facilities and lacking customer service, it is worth the drive to find a better club.

A few months ago, we purchased a family membership to the IRC. The goal was to be able to play more tennis. It took a while to figure out all the unspoken processes and how to get in the system. So far, we are doing things on our own and haven't have classes yet. But the tennis is good. And, now I think I know more and should be able to get a class soon. The pro shop is great!

There is also 2 very nice full basketball courts. The park also touts a large sledding hill and handball court. The sled hill is huge and is located behind the play area. The handball area is on the backside of tennis courts. You will find 4 picnic shelters with picnic tables under them here and an awesome bathroom facility co located with the large shelter. Near the front of the park next to one of the shelters are 3 very nice and well maintained sets of corn hole boards. They are very impressive. The park has a fenced in splash pad that looks pretty cool. They have benches around the perimeter for parents to sit and watch the littles. In the warmer months it is open daily from 9 AM to 7 PM. The center piece of the park is it playground area. It is lined with rubber matting and turf. It also has shade awnings and some new age equipment. There is a bank of swings that has a traditional swing, a toddler swing, and an expression swing. There are a couple of saucer swings, a universal carousel, a bunch of net climbers, a couple of slides, a 4-square course, a see-saw, some percussion instruments, and a whirl and twirl. I must say, the equipment looks straight out of an Ikea catalog. There are a few benches in this area for parents to sit and watch their kids. The park's paved fitness/jogging trail is awesome. It is well paved and has dog poop stations placed along the route. There is a huge parking lot for the park and they have even added a little bridge that connects the back parking spots with the park, crossing over a little prairie area. In addition to all that, the park has a few green space pockets that are suitable for playing catch, a pick up football game, a soccer match, flying a kite or other similar activities. The park is one of the nicer ones that I have visited and I like that the play are does not have dirt or mud. It is very well maintained and in good shape. I hope to make it back to this park when the splash pad is operational and get the full experience.

There are many many sensory and musical structures for learning. This is the nicest playground I have ever visited - hands down. My granddaughter did not want to leave. The playground is about two years old and is kept immaculate by the park service. There is a soft mat under all structures incase the kids fall. There is parking for about a hundred cars, but we were here alone today in the early morning. The facilities are open dawn til dusk. All facilities are totally accessible and stroller friendly. There are swings designed for special needs visitors. There are structures for all ages groups. A number of canopies are arranged across the structures to provide shade. There are awesome unisex and family restroom facilities and four picnic pavilions. There are plenty of benches surrounding the park for parents to relax. There are also plenty of strategically place trash receptacles. Courts and pavilions appear to be first come first serve. There is a nice sidewalk-running path around the park with amenities for dog clean up. Covid guidelines are posted and the park is smoke free. We will be regulars. Well worth the trip.
