GENERAL GUIDELINES:

~ Golf and Tennis members have Platform Tennis privileges. Social members must be accompanied by a Tennis or Golf member. There is a $10.00 guest fee for Social members and non-members.

~ Members may make reservations up to seven days in advance. Reservations are made at the Front Desk between the hours of 8:00 am and 10:00 pm. Desk closes at 8:00 pm on Mondays, January through March. Please call 952-471-8493. There are no permanent court times.

~ The key for the heaters may be checked out at the Front Desk. The lights for the courts are located just outside the dining room door on the patio. The heaters are used only to melt any remaining ice, not to heat the court. Please do not ask desk staff to turn on the heaters. Our grounds staff will make every effort to keep the courts clear of ice and snow. In the event of heavy snow, please arrive early to check on the courts. There will be both a broom and plastic shovel available courtside if courts need additional shoveling. Please return all keys to the Front Desk.

~ Do not put salt on the courts. Please brush off your feet before entering the courts.

~ The attire for platform tennis may be a warm-up suit. Layering your clothing is a good idea as you will warm up quickly. Tennis shoes are fine. The court surface is rough so you may not want to wear your best tennis shoes.
