Pickleball Courts at Riverview Estates Park
Riverview Estates Park has two courts that are fenced off from the rest of the park. The courts are free, open to the public and not often in use.
Two signs are posted at the entrance to the courts.
“Tennis Courts for Tennis Only”
and
“Attention Tennis Players
Respect the property of out neighbors when retrieving tennis balls
Please walk around hedges & shrubs
Also try to keep tennis balls within the confines of the fences
Thank you for your cooperation
Park & Recreation Staff”
Although the signage states the courts are for Tennis Only, both courts are stripped for tennis and pickleball.
Entrance to the parking lot for the courts is from the north, off of 37th Ave. South.
In addition to the courts the park has a hockey rink, baseball diamond, wading pool, playground, full sized basketball court, sledding hill, a sheltered picnic area and acres of open grass.
