Plan Your Visit
Reservations are recommended in advance. For grass tennis, day guests pay $60 per hour, per court, while resort guests do not pay a court fee. Sand Valley also offers private lessons, individual drills, and group drills for up to 8 players. Soft-soled shoes are requested for grass tennis, and parking is limited near the courts, so the main lot and shuttle are recommended. Grass tennis reservations can be made through the Front Desk or reservations line.
