About this court

Pickleball and fitness seekers in Portland, Maine will find the YMCA of Southern Maine's Forest Avenue branch to be a publicly accessible, multi-sport facility with a well-rounded set of amenities under one roof. Rated 4.2 out of 5 across 160 Google reviews, the location holds a good condition rating and draws players and gym-goers alike throughout the week. Weekday hours span 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM Monday through Friday, while Saturday runs 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Sunday offers a shorter window from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM — worth checking before making the trip. The facility, part of a nonprofit established in 1844 in the US, supports a broad range of recreational activity under a multi-sport designation. Beyond the courts, the Portland branch offers a notable collection of amenities including a fitness center, pool, sauna, locker rooms, showers, and restrooms. Players note that the pool and locker rooms are kept clean and spacious, and staff are consistently described as friendly and attentive. Some visitors mention that the workout area is on the smaller side and that class offerings for mid-age adults could be more robust, but the overall experience is considered solid for everyday fitness and recreational use. The facility accepts nationwide YMCA members, adding convenience for traveling players passing through Portland, ME.
