The pickleball courts renovations at Lake Junaluska are complete.
This project, which highlights the growing popularity of pickleball in the area, will also include upgrades to the adjacent public bathrooms.
This will not impact Lake Junaluska’s four tennis courts, which will remain fully available for use.
In addition to local play, the enhanced courts are already generating buzz, with tournaments scheduled for May and October 2025.
“This partnership underscores Haywood County’s commitment to improving recreational opportunities for residents and visitors,” said County Manager Bryant Morehead. “These projects are investments in our community’s health, well-being, and economic vitality.”
The upgraded courts will also host senior games and pickleball camps, including “how-to” clinics for beginners. When not in use for tournaments or classes, the courts will be open for community use, providing year-round opportunities for recreation and social connection.
Haywood County and the Lake Junaluska Conference and Retreat Center invite residents and visitors to stay tuned for updates on the project and future events. lakejunaluska.com
