Sam Smith Tennis Courts in Seattle’s Rainier Valley are a paddle urban oasis! Two outdoor concrete courts with permanent nets, in ‘Good’ shape, rally from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM with lights. Free, with a park lot and restrooms, it’s a city gem near MLK Way. Rain might roll in—soft paddles keep it smooth. No cover, just a park vibe by the boulevard. More’s on the city’s page [here](https://www.seattle.gov/parks/rentals-and-permits/tennis-courts). A two-court haven for a paddle in the heart!
