Lakota Creek Treatment Plant

Pickleball in Federal Way, WA comes at no cost at Lakota Creek Treatment Plant, where 2 public outdoor courts are available free to play. The courts are tennis courts lined with yellow paint for pickleball use, with each court separately fenced. The net center sits at 36 inches — the tennis standard — so players are advised to bring a center strap to temporarily adjust it down to the 34-inch pickleball regulation height. Chairs are not provided, so plan to bring your own. Restrooms and other facilities are located across the street at the Dumas Bay Center. With only 3 reviews and a 3.7 rating, prospective visitors should be aware that at least one reviewer noted an unpleasant odor, which is consistent with the site's proximity to a water treatment facility.
