Read moreI recently visited Crush Yard in Orlando with a group of 8 friends from Ocala, Florida and it was well worth the 1.5-hour drive! The indoor Pickleball facility is top-notch, with outdoor court surfaces and permanent nets, and the lighting was excellent. We opted for open play and had a blast challenging ourselves against players of various skill levels. I would estimate that most players were in the 3.75-5.5 skill range. After playing, we ordered food, which was delicious despite a bit of a wait. The staff was phenomenal, and we already have plans to return in February. I highly recommend Crush Yard to any Pickleball enthusiast, and I hope the owners will consider expanding to Ocala, Florida where there is a vibrant and rapidly growing Pickleball community. Our outdoor courts are packed from 7AM to 9 PM almost every day, with players often waiting for half an hour or more to during open play. An indoor facility like Crush Yard would be a game-changer for our community, providing a much-needed space for players to enjoy the sport year-round and during inclement weather. The only thing that surprised me at Crush Yard is the lack of a locker room for changing if you’re coming directly from work, but the overall experience was fantastic! I sincerely hope the owners of Crush Yard take note of our thriving Pickleball scene in Ocala and consider bringing their state-of-the-art facilities...
Read moreAbsolutely Outstanding Experience! Words can’t even begin to express how amazing our experience was! Steve and Erika went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. From the moment we arrived to celebrate my brother’s birthday, they treated us like family not just guests. Their attention to detail was incredible; they were always around, making sure we had everything we needed and checking in with such genuine care.
The food they provided was absolutely delicious especially the chicken tenders, which were warm, crispy, and some of the best we’ve ever tasted! The entire food setup was fresh, hot, and beautifully prepared.
The arcade was a huge hit with everyone, packed with awesome games and activities for all ages. The courts were top-notch too clean, well maintained, and perfect for some serious fun. We also loved the drink station where you could serve yourself everything was organized, clean, and so convenient.
The entire facility was spotless, and the atmosphere was filled with fun and energy thanks to the amazing staff. Steve and Erika truly made this birthday party one to remember. We felt so welcomed, valued, and cared for every second we were there.
Thank you, Steve and Erika, for making our celebration unforgettable! You two are true examples of what hospitality should be. We can’t wait to come back...
