You can sometimes walk in and grab a court ... but we've found it's much smoother to call ahead and make a reservation in advance. If you're not a member, you can reserve courts three days in advance for around $8 an hour. You pay per court, not per person, which is a great deal if you're playing 2 on 2. Everyone we've spoken to at the front desk has been friendly and helpful! The Sportsplex also offers pickleball clinics and open play opportunities. We haven't tried either of these - but they seem to be well-organized! Like some other reviewers mention, the parking can be a bit tricky if there's some sort of tournament going on. If you're worried about the facilities being busy, I recommend calling ahead to see what they have planned for the day. you'd like to play.

It is open from 5AM to 9PM, with a great deal of its traffic coming in during early morning and during dinner time. If I get the chance to come during the day without everyone else being here, then that is the most ideal situation. I enjoy swimming while my husband does weights. It is a nice place to relax, but the swimming area can be a zoo when school is out during the hotter months. Between swim lessons and the outdoor pool open, it can be overwhelming. I just stick to the swim lanes and call it a day. I think overall the facility is clean and customer service are friendly. Parking can be a nightmare, but you can always find a space. You might have to walk, but it is what it is.

This used to be my go-to Y when I worked near the area. I had to enter around 5am, and even then it…read morewas packed for good reason. The facilities are clean, people are driven, and you feel in good company working on your fitness. I enjoyed finding a rhythm with like-minded people, and the option for some coffee at the end after a ridiculously early workout session. The workers were always polite and even helped me with a few issues here and there faced by typical gym-goers: a lost locked, a door dinged in the parking lot, etc. Everyone was extremely understanding and thoughtful in the midst of my in-the-moment distress. The facilities here are extensive: a whole power rack and weight room on the base floor, a more cardio-focused room on the second, another "express gym" area on the second, and even an outdoor free and power rack area outside with punching bags on turf. I really love that they have pretty new, innovative machinery implementing relatively immersive AI or gamnified exercise. It's both exciting and fun, especially when you're not the biggest fan of redundant activity like me. I love seeing all people of different generations and backgrounds workout out here. It makes me feel like everyone belongs.

We really enjoy the pool and the park. NOTES from our July 4th trip: Great place to go swimming... On Friday Fourth of July..Tony, Noel and I packed a picnic lunch in the cooler and headed out for some fun..We went to Cedar of Lebanon State Park (free to enjoy) and entered to the swimming pool area. A great price of only $4 per person. $2 if you are a camper. The pool area is nice and large with plenty of room to move around and layout. There is NO concession area here but you can bring in your own cooler. Food has to be eaten in a certain area where there is picnic tables available. But you can bring in drinks (plastic bottle only) and drink by your area, some people were snacking on chips and fruit..so I guess that is okay..no one stopped them.. You can smoke but outside of the gated pool area only. You get a hand stamp to get in and out. Also you can leave and come back the same day with the hand stamp which is good..so if you want to go eat and come back to swim some more. The hours are Wednesday thru Sunday 10:30 to 7pm..Closed on Monday and Tuesday.. What I really liked about the pool area is that it is NOT that crowded. The swimming pool itself is really large and there is a diving board..I really liked this pool area. You can bring floats and water toys and bring your own lounge chairs which is really nice. Every hour they have a pool check with a 15 minute break which is good too...keeps every safe and kids under control. The staff was nice and lifeguards young but doing their jobs also a plus..I will definitely go here again.. After we left the pool area we went to the picnic area down the park road a bit and had a cook out. Where we enjoyed a nice semi shaded area and we grilled out hotdogs and hamburgers enjoying some homemade potato salad and baked beans..A great day.. A great holiday and if you are on a BUDGET like I am ALWAYS...only $12 for the fun for a family of 3...Awesome day!!!

Predatory business practice…read more Do not let your college kids sign up for this service. The website does not allow you to cancel and they say you have to come in person. I told the woman on the phone that all of my kids were out of state and they couldn't come to cancel in person. She said that is the policy. I said that they stopped using it on Aug 2nd, but they charged me again on Aug 15th. I asked for the manager's email to email my cancellation. This was ignored. I sent another email which was ignored. We had to cancel the card that was setup to pay because they still have our account listed as active and we will not let them steal our money again.

Alonzo and James Carroll Napier were born Nashville, to a freedman and blacksmith. The school…read moreadjacent to the park is named for Alonzo, and the park is named for James Carrol. J. C. Napier attended Wilberforce College, Oberlin College, and Howard University. He worked as an attorney, and a banker, before getting enveloped in civil service. He served on the Nashville City Council, was in charge of the Centennial exhibits on black achievements, and served as a US register of the Treasury under President Taft. He began to push hard for local playgrounds for the local black community. This land was purchased by the Nashville Parks Board in 1913 for $1,500, and dedicated in J. C. Napier's name. Today the park sits with 2.13 acres, and has a playground, a swimming pool, and a community center. The park has hosted a lot in its time, from day camps, to tennis competitions, to basketball competitions, to concerts and plays, and even scouts. There's a beautiful mural here as well. The neighborhood is a poorer one, and it's concerning to see the bars on the windows of the homes surrounding the park. There's also no where to really park. But, it's worth it to see this gem of a park. It's one of the oldest in the city, and has a charm to it.

3.5 I'm rounding up…read morebecause there's a pool but a 3.5 rating is accurate. This is a neighborhood park to be sure. It, like many parks in the metro area, is connected to a(n elementary) school so unless you have little ones or are planning on spending your time in the attached community center (more on that), I would only come here during the weekend. Otherwise, you run the very real risk of looking like a creeper. The park itself is small. There's a metro sign, brick lettering and a small (like, suitable for an elementary school game of kickball -- not one played by adults) field and that's about it for the green space. The playground is a part of the school. While I'm sure (at least, I hope) it's accessible to the neighborhood kids, it's not part of the park proper. Another not so great aspect of the park is is the proximity to the street. If said elementary school kids were playing kickball and the ball got past the outfielder, you have kids running into traffic. There's no fence or anything else to block the kids off from cars. As a park, the green space doesn't make a lot of sense -- especially when it should be serving the needs of the community/neighborhood. The community center is a different story. There's plenty of parking, ample air conditioning, many rooms, and the above-mentioned pool. These are all pluses and make me consider the viability of the park apart from the community center. I think they should be reviewed together, so I am sticking with the 3.5/4 rating but, again, this is closer to 3.5. Yes, the park is across the street from the Napier Homes but I didn't feel any sort of way during the day on a Saturday. I'm sure it's different at night but there's not many parks you should be at at night. #facts As Nashville grows and the cash/land grab extends its all-consuming paws this way, I am sure Napier Park will change. That will be a very good/bad/sad thing... and it's coming. It's definitely coming.
