Why RV Parks Are Adding Pickleball Courts

“Pickleball has become a social anchor at resorts — not just a sport.”

  • Pickleball is one of the fastest-growing recreational sports in the U.S.

  • RV travelers increasingly choose destinations based on amenities and activities.

  • Pickleball courts drive:

    • Higher guest engagement

    • Longer average stays

    • Better online reviews

    • Strong word-of-mouth and repeat visits

Not All Pickleball Courts are Built to Last

Many commercial courts fail because:

Courts are undersized or poorly spaced

If courts don’t have the right layout, your residents won’t have fun playing and they’re more likely to get injured. Where (and if) you place a fence is especially important for spacing.

Surfaces wear down quickly under frequent use

Courts that have a high number of members can wear down quickly if you use cheap or poorly installed material.

That’s where Backyard Pickleball Builders is different…

Poor layouts create noise or safety complaints

The last thing you want is noise complaints or hazards arising from a badly installed court. We make sure layout, fencing, lights, and overall materials used ensure a safe and fun experience for playing and neighbors alike.

Built by Someone Who Played the Game

Backyard Pickleball Builders is led by Alex Neumann, a former professional pickleball player who has competed on thousands of courts across the country.

That experience informs every decision — from court dimensions and spacing to surface selection and long-term durability. We don’t just build courts that look good. We build courts that play right and hold up in commercial environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have questions specific to your property or layout, we’re happy to walk through them during a short discovery call.

  • A standard pickleball court playing area is 20' x 44', but we typically recommend planning for a larger footprint to allow for safe play, fencing, and circulation. For most RV parks, 60 × 30 ft is the minimum recommend space.

  • Yes. Many RV parks start with a single court as a pilot amenity and expand later based on guest demand and usage. We regularly design projects with future expansion in mind, so additional courts can be added without reworking the original layout.

  • When designed correctly, pickleball courts hold up very well in commercial environments. We focus on surface systems, spacing, and materials that are appropriate for frequent use, helping minimize premature wear and reduce long-term maintenance issues common with poorly designed courts.

  • Pickleball courts can be built successfully in most climates, including hot, humid, and seasonal regions. Design considerations such as drainage, surface selection, slope, and orientation are tailored to local conditions to ensure consistent playability and longevity year-round.
