Best Tennis courts in Los Angeles, Los Angeles County for 2026

2 free tennis courts with benches in Elysian Park in Los Angeles, California. Great spot to play tennis. If you like tennis, you will find 2 free public tennis courts in this park. No fee, no payments, totally free for everyone! Courts have no lights. Nice couple of courts, well maintained. Usually they’re occupied. Really nice and quiet park. This park is one of LA’s oldest and still feels underrated. There are games, a soccer field, a tennis court, and you can cook a meal or whatever you want. You can enjoy a disc golf game at the Chavez course. You can walk along the paths and enjoy the beautiful views of Los Angeles and Dodgers stadium. The best view of the city. Angels Point Road provides an east-side scene of I-5 traffic, LA River and rail yard, way down below. Also further over is the 110 Freeway and mountains in the distance. The uphill trail above the Angels Point Road viewpoint leads to the Secret Swing Angels Point. Plenty of parking around. Free parking and restrooms are provided, though weekends and holidays tend to be overwhelmed. Restrooms are always clean and stocked with toilet paper and smell clean.
