About this place

Three outdoor pickleball courts, the only odd count on the City's list apart from the single courts. Three courts is one more than a game and one short of two full games: a group of six plays without waiting, a group of eight rotates, and the third court is the one that keeps things moving. The park was acquired in 1969 and is 27.09 acres.

The park page lists ballfields, basketball, grills, a multi-purpose field, pickleball, picnic shelters, picnic tables, a playground, restrooms, soccer, tennis, volleyball and walking. Pickleball is a word on the list without a number, and the three is the pickleball page's.

Getting there

4709 Lowe Rd, Louisville, KY 40220. The US Census address geocoder matched the address at house-number level and placed it in "Louisville/Jefferson County metro government (balance)", the Census's label for the consolidated city outside the pre-merger boundary. The record places the park in the east of the county. The City publishes nothing about parking. Restrooms are on the amenity list, and at 27 acres the address is close to everything in the park.

What to expect

Three courts, outdoors, park hours of 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., and nothing else stated. Lighting is not stated, so an evening game is unknown rather than no. Price is not stated, and surface and nets are not stated either.

The number is the useful thing. With three courts a six can play at once and an eight can rotate with a short wait, which is a better proposition than the two-court parks and a smaller one than the six-court parks. The City publishes no session here, and nothing on its record says when the courts are busy. What it does list is a park with ballfields, soccer, volleyball and basketball beside the courts.

What claiming does and does not doShow less

You can claim this listing and correct anything on it. To be clear about what claiming does and does not do: it gives you control of your own facts and a channel to reach us, and it is shown on the page as confirmed by the venue with the date you confirmed it.

It does not mark the listing verified, because a claim tells us who you are rather than checking what is here, and those are different things. It also buys no ranking, no sorting and no placement advantage over an unclaimed venue. The moment claiming bought position this would be an advertising product rather than a directory, and the whole promise would be gone.

Something wrong here?

If you play here and this is out of date, tell us. Corrections come with a source and a date attached, the same as everything else, and a correction that changes a court count gets checked against the city record before it goes live.
