Bring your own shade and supplies
Tree coverage is inconsistent and restrooms are limited to a single port-a-potty in poor condition, so plan accordingly.
Supervise closely and visit daytime
Multiple reviewers reported unsafe activity at night, poor lighting, and occasional drug use, so visits should be during daylight hours.
Expect cleanliness issues
Trash, graffiti, and mud accumulation on courts are recurring complaints, so manage expectations about maintenance.
