Cole Harbour Place

Court Details

About this court

Cole Harbour Place brings pickleball to Dartmouth, Nova Scotia with 11 outdoor courts at 51 Forest Hills Pkwy — a mix of 3 dedicated courts and 8 hybrid courts where visitors are expected to supply their own nets. As a public, pay-to-play multi-sport complex, it operates Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with Saturday hours running until 8:00 PM and Sunday until 9:00 PM, offering one of the longer daily access windows in the area. The facility's 4.4 Google rating across 858 reviews reflects genuine community use, and visitors frequently mention the value of having a fitness center, pool, locker rooms, and restrooms all under one roof alongside the courts. That said, the courts carry a "needs work" condition rating, and the broader picture from reviewers is mixed. Players and patrons note that parts of the facility show signs of age and deferred maintenance, with structural concerns flagged in certain areas of the complex. Some visitors feel the cost-versus-benefit balance has shifted over time as programming and upkeep have lagged. On a more positive note, reviewers consistently highlight the cleaning staff's efforts and describe the facility as a lively hub for weekend multi-sport activity. For pickleball players in Dartmouth, Canada, Cole Harbour Place remains a well-located, amenity-rich option — best visited with current court conditions in mind.
