We’re thrilled to share that Sterling Ranch’s brand-new, state-of-the-art pickleball court complex is officially open! Located in Burns Regional Park, this beautiful addition features eight courts complete with seating, shade structures, rack holders, water fountains, and sweeping views of the Rocky Mountains. It’s the first amenity to open in the park and the latest in our amenity-rich community, designed to promote wellness, fun, and connection.
It’s no secret that pickleball has grown in popularity in recent years. In fact, Zillow reports that pickleball mentions in home listings have risen 64% year over year, making it one of the hottest trends in real estate today. As demand for this dynamic, community-friendly sport continues to surge, Sterling Ranch is proud to offer a premier facility where residents of all ages and skill levels can enjoy play and fellowship, just steps from home.
One of the standout features of the new complex is its innovative PickleGlass enclosure—a 10-foot-high glass wall surrounding the courts that helps block wind and reduce noise to nearby homes while maintaining a clear view of the surrounding landscape. The court design preserves the park’s stunning Rocky Mountain vistas while addressing sound concerns. The result is a beautiful, functional amenity that enhances quality of life without compromising peace and quiet for Sterling Ranch residents.
Since the courts opened they’ve been buzzing with activity. Between individual open play reservations and full court bookings, the courts are seeing incredible use—proof that the beautiful new courts are a big hit (pun intended) with the community. From casual matches to more competitive games, the excitement is contagious and the courts are becoming a social hub where neighbors connect, play, and cheer each other on.
To officially mark the occasion, Sterling Ranch hosted a ribbon-cutting celebration. Residents and community leaders came together for the event, which highlighted the opening of these first-of-their-kind courts at Burns Regional Park in Sterling Ranch. With paddles in hand, neighbors cheered as the ribbon was cut, officially opening the courts for play. The strong turnout was a testament to just how much excitement and anticipation surrounded this new addition.
The new courts are available through a convenient reservation system—free for Sterling Ranch residents and open to the public for a fee. Whether you’re looking to sharpen your skills, meet new neighbors, or just enjoy a fun afternoon in the Colorado sunshine, there’s a place for you on the court. We can’t wait to see you out there—paddles up!
