Western Star Park

Court Details

About this court

Western Star Park in Phoenix, AZ brings free, lighted pickleball to a well-rounded public park open every day from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM — one of the longer daily windows available for recreational play in the area. The facility includes 2 outdoor courts configured on shared tennis infrastructure: one court is permanently painted for pickleball, while the second relies on tape or chalk markings. Both courts use tennis nets, which is worth factoring in for players accustomed to regulation pickleball net height. There is no fee to play, and the courts are open to all ages and skill levels. Holding a 4.5-star rating across 346 Google reviews, the park draws steady positive feedback from the broader community. Visitors frequently mention the covered picnic area, functioning restrooms, water fountains with bottle-filling stations, and the dog-friendly green space as amenities that make longer visits comfortable. The multi-sport layout — supporting basketball, baseball, volleyball, and more — means the courts can see varied traffic, and some reviewers note occasional overlap between tennis and pickleball users. Located at 10047 S 44th Street at the base of South Mountain in the Ahwatukee neighborhood, Western Star Park in the United States serves as a convenient neighborhood hub. The presence of lights extends usable court time well into the evening, and the covered areas provide some relief during Phoenix's warmer months. Players looking for a no-cost, accessible outdoor pickleball option with solid surrounding amenities will find this park a practical and consistently available choice.
