Claire Chapin Epps Family YMCA

Court Details

About this court

At the Claire Chapin Epps Family YMCA in Myrtle Beach, SC, pickleball open play is offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12:30 to 3:30 PM, with non-members admitted for a $2 fee. One court may be designated for beginning players when demand calls for it, giving newer participants a comfortable entry point. Worth noting: sessions close for roughly six weeks starting mid-March each year, so calling 843-449-9622 before visiting is strongly advised. The facility carries a 3.9-star Google rating across 160 reviews and is listed in good condition. The YMCA's broader amenity set adds value for pickleball players who want more from a single stop. The location features a fitness center, indoor pool, locker rooms, restrooms, childcare, and multi-sport programming—all operating Monday through Friday from 5:00 AM, with reduced Saturday (7:00 AM–3:00 PM) and Sunday (1:00–5:00 PM) hours. Lessons are also available on-site. Visitors mention a friendly, encouraging staff and a community-oriented atmosphere that extends well beyond any single sport or program. The public, pay-to-play access model keeps the facility open to non-members, though some reviewers have noted the location does not participate in nationwide YMCA membership reciprocity—something worth confirming before making the trip from out of town.
