Positive Reviews:

Valérie Lent: ★★★★★

Once you figured out how to book a court, it's great! Lots of parking, courts are well maintained. One of them (3) currently has a big chip in the surface, but other than that, they are perfect.

Lisa Maraszek: ★★★★★

My local favorite for exercise and community connection, these courts were just repaired and resurfaced, and are ready to invite one and all, for all things PICKLEBALL 😀. …

Don Lubach: ★★★★★

This space is the heart of our community. I spent countless hours here when my kids went through year-after-year of ballet. I stop in now and then to see what's going on with the many programs housed in the facility. I have noticed that the Pickleball activity is vibrant and seems to always be active. This is a special place.

The Goleta Valley Community Center is a great local venue for local concerts and other performances. The center also has pickleball courts that are available to the community.
