The Rec Complex of Fairview Heights
Court count pending · Fairview Heights, IL
Confirmed via The Rec Complex's own website: daily Open Play Pickleball is currently offered at The REC. A separate, larger dedicated 'Field House' (targeted ~10 indoor/outdoor courts) is under construction as part of a park expansion project, with a tentative fall/October 2026 completion — that expansion is not yet open, so this record reflects the currently operating facility only.
Our picks from the pickleball buying guides — chosen editorially, never by the venue and never by spend.
