The Stadium and Courts
First up, our stadium is swiftly taking shape, soon to be the world’s first dedicated pickleball stadium, accompanied by 42 other courts. Whether you’re here for casual play or competitive matches, our campus has something for everyone with leagues, lessons, and casual games.
Additionally, 14 of these courts are weatherproof, ensuring that the fun never stops, rain or shine!
The Lake house
We’ll offer far more than typical bar fare. Imagine savoring freshly prepared dishes and signature cocktails while soaking in the breathtaking views of a pristine 7-acre lake or along side center court. Whether you’re unwinding after a game or simply spending time with friends, it’s the ideal setting to relax and enjoy.

Clubhouse and Pro Shop
The Clubhouse and Pro Shop are nearing the final stages of interior design, gearing up to offer some real flair.

Lakeside Recreational Area
We’re turning the lakeside beach into a tropical oasis, with a forest of 100 palm trees creating the perfect South Florida Vibe. Relax in this paradise-like setting after a match, celebrate a special occasion, or enjoy a Sunday brunch. It’s the ultimate getaway and your future home away from home.
