Austin Pickle Ranch is celebrating National Pickleball Month with a big announcement: there’s a north Austin location in the works, set to debut next month.

The new Braker Lane facility, located inside the former Golfsmith shop at 11000 N. IH-35, spans 50,000-sqft, and features indoor + outdoor lounges.

Best of all, the Braker location contains 16 regulation-size indoor pickleball courts, perfect for those hot summer months. Once it opens, it will be one of the biggest indoor pickleball establishments in Texas.

In addition to indoor and outdoor lounges, the new location will also have on-site food and beverage options.
