Facilities FAQ

What's the difference between public courts and private clubs?
Public courts and courses are open to anyone, typically for a small fee or free. Private clubs require membership (often $5,000-$50,000+ initiation plus monthly dues) but offer better amenities, course conditions, and guaranteed tee times. Resort courses allow guests and local players to book tee times at premium rates ($75-$500+ per round).
How much does it cost to play golf as a guest?
Public municipal courses: $20-$60 per round. Quality daily-fee courses: $50-$150. Resort courses: $100-$300. Bucket-list venues like Pebble Beach: $500-$600+. Many 55+ communities offer reciprocal play agreements where you can play as a guest for $30-$75.
Are pickleball courts free?
Most public park and recreation center courts are free. YMCA and community centers may charge a small facility fee ($3-$10). Private clubs require membership. Dedicated pickleball facilities like Naples Pickleball Center offer day passes ($10-$20) or memberships. Retirement communities typically include unlimited court access in HOA fees.
How do I find pickleball courts near my retirement community?
Use the USA Pickleball court locator (usapickleball.org/places), Pickleheads app, or Pickleball Galaxy. Most active adult communities list facilities on their websites. Call the community's recreation office to ask about court availability, league schedules, and guest policies before visiting.
