Vista Park is a neighborhood park in Taylorsville with two outdoor pickleball courts added next to the playground as part of the city's 2023 pickleball expansion. This is a family park first, with a playground, baseball fields, open grass, a pavilion, and restrooms, and the courts sit within that mix rather than at a dedicated complex. Reviews describe a clean, well-kept park in a quiet residential pocket near 5000 South, popular with families and dog owners. Players looking for a casual, walk-up game close to home will find it here; it is not a tournament destination, and a single pair of courts means the experience scales with how busy the park is on a given afternoon.
Two outdoor courts sit next to the playground at 2051 W 5000 South. Access is public, first-come, first-served, so bring your own paddles and balls. The Taylorsville parks information lists park hours of 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. with lights, so evening play is possible. Parking is on site and reviewers call it a decent amount, with restrooms and a covered pavilion nearby. Enter from the east side for the easiest approach to the courts and playground. With only two courts shared with a busy family park, weekend and after-school hours can fill up fast.
What locals say
“Awesome place to bring family and friends to burn some energy. Playgrounds for kids, open space to run around, and it looks like pickle ball courts are being installed.”
