Pickle ball bonanza
Jun 2022 • Couples
Pros- Lots of courts, evening lights, many players of all levels, many options for play, excellent coaching options.
Nancy and Rick are excellent!!
Cons- Limited bathrooms and hours (closes during play hours), no ice machine or cold water bottle fountain available during round robin (terrible drinking fountain), limited shade and sitting area for round robin.
Unorganized round robin by Sarah M.

Pickleball Heaven
May 2022 • Couples
The pickleball courts were in pristine condition, all 24 of them. Each morning they ran a exceptionally well organized round robin which accommodated players from 4.5 to beginner with ease and good competitive matching. We were there in late May: playing from 10:00 to 1130 was exhausting due to the high heat and humidity. They start the round robins earlier in summer due to the weather. Players and staff were friendly and made for a wonderful experience.

Nice Facility, plenty of classes, Clay Court Only
Apr 2022
Did a group lesson in morning, very good and pro was very helpful in the clinic. Played in late evening and courts were not very smooth and the ball took some funny bounces. Wish they had a few hard courts.

Top NOTCH Service !
Apr 2022 • Family
I must start with we were on a ten day vacation at PD . We come every year for the past 15 years at the same approx time- recently we kept saying we need to try the pickleball courts . Finally we did , the kids , 26y/o, knew how to play so we rented a court . The folks in the clubhouse were so friendly and helpful ! I wish I caught the woman’s name , Barbara ? Maybe ) was particularly kind . Clearly the majority of the folks in there playing were from the area and knew how things worked - we did not and she made sure to make us feel right at home ! The facility is clean and well run . They offer
Lessons if you need them and we saw a lot of that with teachers who were super
Positive and helpful ! Rent a court for an hour with paddles / balls included is only 35$. We happen to be there later in the day , 5 o’clock so they told us no rush getting off the courts if you are still
Mid game ;) and they all repeated “have fun “ - thank you palmetto Dunes Tennis and pickleball for making the game and our experience a super one !

Tennis clinic on our vacation
Mar 2022 • Couples
My husband and I were in town for a tennis tournament and decided to try a clinic for ourselves. We did the advanced drills with Eric and it was a lot of fun. 1 1/2 hour clinic with 5 players. Good drills and good information. He used the ball machine to feed which I wasn’t crazy about at first but it was fine. He encouraged us and gave great tips. Such an nice tennis vibe on hat tru courts. The pickle ball area was crazy big and full. Great experience! We loved it!

Great tennis!
Jan 2022
my wife and I were staying at Shelter Cove and brought our racquets to hopefully play a couple of time while in Hilton Head. We stopped by the club house to find classes going on all day-every day. This was in January! Eric, head pro, Patrick, Greg couldn't have been any nicer. Great lessons, fast paced and we played 7 of 11 days while there. Can't say enough great things about their team.
Nice job Eric! We will be back because of this gem!

Lots of courts, lots of fun.
Dec 2021
Huge tennis & pickle ball center conveniently located in Palmetto Dunes. We were able to easily book tennis courts and with a bit more flexibility & lead time booked pickle ball too. Courts for both were well maintained & the check-in process was easy (we had our own equipment for everything.)

Great Week at Palmetto Dunes
Oct 2021
I went down for a week's visit to Hilton Head, and had three sessions at the Palmetto Dunes Tennis Center. Mark is a fantastic coach and he led our two clinics and one round robin. Everyone had a good time and there is something for everyone! I loved walking around to the courts from my rental at Village at Palmetto Dunes. Couldn't have been any closer!! Definitely coming back next year.

Pickleball paradise
Oct 2021 • Solo
A must stop if you play pickleball, either as a beginner or advanced player. Go to the round robin either in the morning or afternoon, you’re sure to find a fun and competitive game. Everyone is nice and they run a top notch program. Paddle up!

Pro tour instruction in Paradise
Oct 2021
I love it when a girls tennis trip goes beyond what I expected! The Tennis Center had everything and more! Beautiful facilities that were well maintained, plenty of courts available at your convenience, and a staff that catered to your every need! Our pro, Eric Wammock gave us top-notch instructions. In my thirty years of tennis instruction, he was the best. I felt like I was prepared for the pro tour!!!
After our clinic, we had the amazing amenities of Palmetto Dunes! The beach, the restaurants, bicycling through the town made for a complete vacation. I will definitely make this a yearly trip!
