Official community website confirms lighted pickleball and tennis courts among amenities; UCI membership required for residents. Court count, address, and hours not published on official site. (Note: a separate Pickleheads-sourced lead 'Ulmstead Barn' refers to the community's clubhouse/event barn, currently under construction per the official site — not itself a pickleball court; not drafted separately.)
