ALL YEAR ROUND PLATFORM

At Owl’s Nest Resort in Thornton, New Hampshire, the platform tennis offering stands out as a premium year-round amenity nestled in the White Mountains. The resort’s racquet complex features four heated platform tennis courts, making it the first publicly accessible facility of its kind in New Hampshire. These courts are built to accommodate play in all seasons, ensuring that platform tennis isn’t limited to just winter months.

Players can take advantage of a variety of formats, including 30- and 60-minute court rentals, clinics for different skill levels, as well as leagues and tournaments throughout the year. The scenic backdrop of the White Mountains adds significantly to the experience, offering a beautiful environment for racquet sport enthusiasts of all levels.

ALL YEAR ROUND PLATFORM

  • Booking ahead: Because this is a resort facility (not just a local club), court time may fill up, especially during peak season or when there are events. It’s a good idea to reserve in advance.
  • Equipment: If you don’t have your own platform tennis racquet/gear, the resort provides rentals ($10 racquet rental listed).
  • Seasonality & weather: While the courts are heated and year-round, winter in the White Mountains can still bring things like snow, shorter daylight — so check whether play times are affected (lighting, access) especially in early morning/evening.
  • Skill level & format: If you’re new to platform tennis, take advantage of clinics or lessons (they offer “Paddle 101”, etc) rather than jumping straight into competitive league play. In fact, the Tennis Resorts Online article mentions “Paddle 101” and open-play round robins.
  • Event hosting: If you’re organizing a group (say for your Beer Walk event or as a guest group) the resort offers tournament-package options (with lodging + courts) which could be leveraged for a fun group outing.
