Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA

Court Details

About this court

Located at 200 Saxony Road in Encinitas, CA, Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA offers pickleball as part of a full-service public recreation facility operating on a pay-to-play basis. Weekday hours run from 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM (closing at 8:30 PM on Fridays), while Saturday and Sunday hours are 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM. The facility carries a 3.8 Google rating based on 124 reviews and is listed in good condition, making it a consistent option for players in the greater Encinitas area. The YMCA's amenity set stands out among local options, including a pool, sauna, fitness center, locker rooms, showers, restrooms, water access, and on-site childcare — all factors that make it particularly well-suited for families. Players and members note that the facility maintains clean surroundings and that staff are friendly and knowledgeable, contributing to its appeal as a multi-use destination rather than a dedicated court-only venue. Reviewer sentiment across the 124 ratings reflects a mixed but generally positive picture. Long-term members highlight the facility's value relative to premium gym alternatives in the Encinitas, CA, US area, and families specifically appreciate the combination of recreational programs and fitness amenities under one roof. Some visitors, however, mention concerns about service consistency and weekend hours being less accommodating for full-time workers, which is worth considering when planning court sessions around the posted schedule.
