We went to Rt. 12 Pickle last Saturday night to play pickleball for the first time. We were quite impressed with the new facility and, even though we are complete novices, we had a great time! It was very easy to pick up and we had fun playing. We highly recommend & look forward to going back!

Rt12 Pickle is a great facility. The layout was well thought out. I like the fencing between the courts to prevent balls rolling onto other courts. The courts are great to play on. The facility is bright, spacious, with good lighting. I like the lounge area, where you can enjoy some libations after play. There is plenty of court time for all levels and are open early mornings to later in the evening. The staff is very helpful. This facility is the best indoor place for pickleball in the area in my opinion. I love playing here.

My name is Matt Evans and I grew up in Holden. I now live in Westchester NY with my family but was up this weekend visiting my mother. I brought my 15 year old son with me to your new pickleball home.

All I can say is congratulations on a wonderful location and setup. The way you set up your business is fantastic. All courts separated by fencing. The lighting, the tv area, the ping pong area. Very nice.

I’m the Director of Racquets for a small town down here in Westchester. I run a whole host of adult and kids programming for tennis and pickleball. I also teach pickleball at an indoor facility as well. It’s nothing like your establishment. I wish there was something close but not yet anyway.

I just wanted to drop you a note and tell you that we really enjoyed ourselves and congratulations once again. I wish you lots of success. I hope to return.

All the best,
Matt Evans

I can’t recommend Rt.12 Pickle enough! I took a crash course in November with my sister, and it was our first time ever playing pickleball. Our instructor, Joe D., made the experience so fun and informative. We knew very little about the sport, but in such a short time, he broke everything down clearly and helped us build our skills. After the crash course, we signed up for a group class with Joe and completed two different levels (PB10 and PB20). It’s been a blast learning more strategic play and advancing our skills.

The facility itself is fantastic—9 spacious courts and a clean, well-maintained space. The staff are all incredible, always friendly, and super helpful with anything we need. As beginners, I especially appreciated the coach-supervised play I did with Ted and Chuck on the weekends. They spent 2 hours watching us play and offered great feedback that really helped us improve our game.

After completing PB20, I had the opportunity to be assessed by a pickleball consultant who, along with two other Rt.12 Pickle instructors (Suzanne & Terri), helped evaluate my rating. The feedback was spot-on and incredibly helpful. The assessment really helps individuals understand their ranking and determining what level to sign up for Open Play when using the PlaybyPoint App.

If you’re considering joining, I highly recommend the unlimited package. You get so much value, and it’s totally worth it. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to advance, Rt.12 Pickle has everything you need to enjoy and improve your game! The community is amazing, and you’ll want to play all the time! I can’t thank Ben and the rest of the Rt.12 team enough for being so welcoming and supportive!
