Court One East is the perfect place to accomplish any of your fitness needs, whether it’s exercising, practicing, training, swimming or doing Zumba. They have a lovely group of staff that are always willing to help out! The hot tub has just recently remodeled, and so were ALL of the tennis courts. Along with being able to entertain yourself, they can also entertain your children with the childcare program! Court one is a bargain for what you get and I would recommend this to everyone trying to accomplish their fitness goals!
Great facility and equipment. Staff always greets you upon entry and exit. My family loves it here.
Some coaches are very irresponsible. I learnt tennis from a coach for two years, two private lessons and two group lessons per week. But I didn’t know how to stroke. The coach said because I am not old enough to have the strength. I couldn’t move fast to receive balls, however the coach said because my eyesight is not good enough. It was a nightmare to learn tennis from some coaches there.
This club is ground zero for tennis in Michigan. The club professionals are all outstanding teachers, not just players. I drive my kids here 3 days a week on a full hour commute to be part of this program. Adult programs seem good but the juniors are among the top players in the nation. Prices are fair and we are always treated with patience and understanding. Well done!
Very clean facility with a plethora of equipment. Staff have been helpful and knowledgable. Lots for kids to do there too!
I had been to Court One as a guest early last fall. At the time, the experience left me flat so we joined another local tennis club. That was a mistake. The tennis program at the other facility was a glorified hitting group with little or no instruction for my children. Reports were coming back to me about changes at Court One so I thought I’d give them another look. Having my kids drop in to a class revealed unimaginable differences right away. These people are teachers and developers. My children improved more in one day than in 8 months at their competition. While my children play tennis, my wife and I have gotten into some of the fitness programs. I never thought that organized fitness could be fun but here to I was wrong. Most importantly, we are treated as family. The adage you can’t judge a book by its cover is correct. Court One is not the newest facility but they are clearly the best. It’s their staff’s knowledge and attitude that sets them apart. Our family has a new home and we will never leave.
Some of the older reviews are quite critical. Many updates have been made in exercise equipment as well as in locker rooms. The staff is friendly and helpful. ....The indoor pool has two lap lanes. Yes, the indoor pool is a little warmer than a swimmer may like...but there are many who use the pool that need the temp of the water a little warmer then a swimmer may like. The outdoor pool is great in the summer months....For the price...you cant beat it! :-)
MANAGEMENT PLEASE READ AND RESPONSE TO THIS. Ight so court one used to be lit. The equipment is sub par, the basketballs or the lack of them are older than me, the courts are so dusty I can’t see the 3 point line. The employees are terribly rude to the point that they don’t even acknowledge the presence of customers. Some employees such as Graham and Mel are quite arrogant and don’t greet customers, I recommend a complete overhaul of the employees(except Rebecca and the dude with glasses). If I had a choice I would choose the Mac which actually makes their members feel welcome. MANAGEMENT PLEASE READ AND RESPONSE TO THIS.
Very disappointed, The hot tub has been broken for 6months and still not fixed,,
Horrible service. I literally just left there and will never return. They said they have a new manager wich he is obviously not qualified for his position. Me and my 2 kids came in after being told on the phone we could purchase day passes to use the facility in order to see if we want to purchase a membership. When we got there they told me nobody told me that and they don’t do that anymore. He asked the manager if he could let us and he said no way.. Please never go here! Horrible people, horrible place. I left very angry as I drove a half hour with my excited kids in the car only to get turned away.
Court One is expensive for what it offers. The equipment is outdated, to the point that weight machines cannot be adjusted and/or are designed for men or taller women. The pool is kept at a high temperature, which is not suited for lap swimming. The weight area is not climate controlled which can lead to some dangerous conditions during a humid summer. The staff, overall, seems indifferent. On more than one occasion, I have overhead staff members complaining about their jobs, about clients. When I have expressed concerns to them, I get the impression that my comments will never be acted upon or reach a person in authority.
I live in okemos and i initially had a membership at the MAC after which i cancelled it due to a slack in my fitness routine.when i decided to restart being fit and healthy i decided to try out court one in okemos since its closer to me.i expected it to be something like the MAC but I was surprised to see that the whole place looked very old,in need of repairs(they were renovating it when i got there).the staff in the front 2 women were very rude to me today.they pointed out a guy to me who showed me around.he was polite and kind but i was put off from taking a membership mainly because of the attitudes of the women in front .they pointed out this guy to me and said this is the membership coordinatorand then added sorry that s an english termas though i dont understand english.i felt hurt.maybe its because i am asian that they responded like that.Okemos is a multiracial area and they will have to behave in a better way to asians hispanics everyone if they need business but then its not their business.they r just minimally paid jerks.whoever is involved in this business should take note of this review.when i went for the tour of the club i noted that the equipments are old dirty and ITS NOTHING LIKE THE MAC.MAC is expensive compared to court one but I would any day gladly pay some extra bucks to get polite service and a clean environment.i do not know about the court one over at lansing but this experience gave me a very bad opinion about court one in general.parking is limited too.overall i rate it 0 / 5 on all levels.such a pathetic place should be closed down or at least those inexperienced uneducated women should be removed.okemos is a beautiful tolerant community with highly educated professionals living .we r proud of okemos and we wont tolerate poor clubs and racist thinking here.
Uncaring staff, not well managed, but its good for the price, not many classes at times that are needed,
Terrible place, staff are awful and hateful. Small selection of weights and mostly just treadmills.
Not the place to learn tennis. The instructor is rude and doesnt run his program well at all.
Please post correct Summer hours
Everything you need.
