The township's own facilities page for Civic Center Park (40700 Romeo Plank Rd) lists the Ray Hernandez Pickleball Courts with six courts, alongside shuffleboard and bocce. The township page documents the courts; open-play schedules and any organized programming hold-times are handled through Parks and Recreation programming rather than published on that page, so confirm timing before you drive.
Add Metro Pickleball Club's 16 indoor courts on Garfield Road and the township covers both halves of the Michigan pickleball year: a public outdoor address for summer mornings and a bookable indoor club for everything else.

Ray Hernandez Pickleball Courts: the public outdoor six
Six outdoor courts at the Civic Center Park complex, on the township's own facilities listing. There is no township-published walk-on reservation process in our records, and organized programming use can block prime evening slots, which makes mornings and shoulder hours the reliable windows. The park itself anchors the township's civic block, with the senior center and other courts nearby, which is how these municipal complexes usually work: shuffleboard for one generation, pickleball for the next, both within a short walk of parking.
The township page lists the courts as a park feature without publishing hours or fees, so treat normal Detroit-area park practice as the default: open during park hours, free to use, first-come when programming is not running.
Metro Pickleball Club: the indoor anchor
Metro Pickleball Club at 41594 Garfield Road lists 16 indoor courts with reservable open play ($15 for non-members), skill events ($15), clinics, and court rentals ($40/hr), booked through CourtReserve. It is also one of the few clubs in the region where casual visitors can plan a specific time slot weeks out instead of gambling on walk-on.
The pricing page lists the non-member options directly, which is the polite way of saying you do not need a membership to get on a court here; you need a free CourtReserve visitor account and fifteen dollars. Members get the same open play at a lower rate plus the usual club perks, and the club's events calendar runs skill-labeled sessions, so beginners can find courts that match rather than getting tossed into a 4.5 stack.
