Gulf Waters RV Resort

Court Details

About this court

Tucked along the shores of a private lake in Fort Myers Beach, FL, Gulf Waters RV Resort offers pickleball access as part of a membership-based community with a distinctly residential feel. The resort's 4 outdoor courts were painted onto an existing tennis court in the past summer and remain under renovation, reflecting the broader recovery effort following hurricane damage that visitors mention the park navigating with care. Court access runs weekdays from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with no public weekend hours, and play is strictly by invitation — available only to residents and renters of this private ownership park in the United States. For those who qualify, the courts have become a social hub: players note that a regular group of 12 or more residents has formed, gathering Sunday mornings at 8:30 AM and organizing additional sessions throughout the season under the coordination of resort manager Bob Thompson. Onsite amenities supporting the pickleball experience include restrooms, showers, a pool, and dog-friendly areas — a combination that fits the resort's broader lifestyle appeal. Reviewers consistently praise the friendly, community-driven atmosphere and well-maintained shared spaces like the pool, though some visitors mention the bathrooms and individual site conditions as areas still improving. Rated 4.6 across 181 Google reviews, Gulf Waters RV Resort suits dedicated pickleball players who are already part of — or planning to join — its tight-knit seasonal community near Fort Myers Beach.
