Take in Boone’s Fresh Air and Mountain Views
There’s something special about summer days in Boone. The cooler air, tall trees, and wide-open skies make playing tennis outside a lot more refreshing than playing anywhere else. Instead of rushing through a workout, you’ll find yourself wanting to stay a little longer, soak in the scenery, and appreciate the slower pace that summer brings.
At Deer Valley Athletic Club, the outdoor tennis courts are surrounded by the natural beauty of the High Country. After a match, it’s easy to step into the outdoor pool, grab a snack on the patio, or watch the kids splash and play nearby.
Strengthen Your Health—And Your Happiness
Spending time outdoors has more benefits than most people realize. Sunshine, fresh air, and movement all come together to help you feel stronger and more energized. Playing tennis outside gives you:
- A boost of vitamin D for bone and immune health
- Better heart health through aerobic movement
- Improved mood from sunlight and active time outdoors
- Sharpened focus and reflexes from adapting to new playing conditions
- A chance to connect with family, friends, and other members
When it comes to making the most of the summer months, choosing outdoor tennis is one of the simplest ways to stay active, social, and healthy.
Challenge Yourself and Improve Your Game
Playing tennis outside brings a little more variety—and a little more fun—to your matches. You’ll find yourself adjusting for breezes, sun angles, and the occasional mountain gust. These small changes build stronger footwork, faster reactions, and smarter strategies on the court.
Learning to play well in different outdoor conditions not only makes you a better player but also keeps the game exciting. It’s the kind of fun challenge that reminds you why you started playing in the first place.
