Brown Deer Offering Pickleball Court Rentals at Ten Mile Park

Pickleball players now have another way to guarantee court time on Milwaukee’s North Shore. Brown Deer Parks and Recreation has opened reservations for the pickleball courts at Ten Mile Park, giving families, friends and organized groups the opportunity to reserve their own court in advance.

The new rental option is especially helpful for players who want to avoid arriving at a busy park without knowing whether a court will be available.

More to Explore at Ten Mile Park

Ten Mile Park is located along the Oak Leaf Trail corridor and includes more than pickleball. The recreation area also offers a basketball court, nature play areas, a bicycle pump track and memorial benches to rest along the trail.

That combination makes the park a particularly good choice for families whose members may not all want to play pickleball. One group can take the court while other family members ride bikes, play basketball or explore the park.

Visitors can also learn about other community facilities and programs through the Village of Brown Deer Parks and Recreation Department.
