Six cushioned courts at the foot of Vail Mountain.

The Vail Recreation District’s six dedicated courts sit at the Golden Peak base, a short walk from Vail Village, with a cushioned surface laid in fall 2025. In summer, staffed drop-in sessions sort players by level; in October the courts are free and unstaffed. In winter, play moves indoors to Red Sandstone Elementary School.
