Dog rules

Dogs are not permitted within 10 metres of play areas or playgrounds, public bathing areas, school grounds, childcare centres, Wildlife Protection Areas, during organised sport, or some food service and preparation areas.

What people say
If you love pickle ball, great. If you don't then look elsewhere. The noise is quite distracting to nearby tennis courts. Good lights.
