Chevy Chase Community Center

Court Details

About this court

Pickleball at Washington, DC's Chevy Chase Community Center is free and open to the public, with 2 outdoor courts available six days a week at 5601 Connecticut Ave NW. Weekday hours run 9 AM to 9 PM Monday through Friday, while Saturday hours are 9 AM to 5 PM; the facility is closed on Sundays. The courts are tagged as multi-sport and kid friendly, making them a practical stop for families and casual players alike. A structured Thursday evening session — running from 7:00 to 8:30 PM — adds organized programming to the otherwise open-play format. Beginner instruction is offered during that window, and paddles and balls are provided, so first-timers can show up without gear. Organizers note this is the second spring/summer season of outdoor play, meaning a returning core of players at varied skill levels will be on the courts. The courts hold a 3.9 Google rating across 49 reviews in Washington, DC, United States. Players note the outdoor pickleball and recreational courts are among the more appealing aspects of the facility, though reviewers consistently mention the building itself is showing its age and conditions need attention — a sentiment reflected in the court's "needs work" condition rating. Parking can be limited during busier periods, though visitors mention a larger lot across the street is accessible on weekends.
