Reserving a court is the exception: of 163 public facilities from Campbell north to Pacifica, only 4 publish booking instructions online

Asked:

“Find all public tennis courts in the South Bay and Peninsula. For each facility list the city, number of courts, hours, fees, and how to book it.”

A best-effort inventory of 163 public outdoor tennis-court facilities across 23 cities of the South Bay and San Francisco Peninsula, compiled from municipal, school-community-use, tennis-directory and reservation pages indexed as of September 2, 2026. Court counts were published for 53 facilities (205 courts in total among them); hours for 28, fees for 18, booking instructions for 4 — blanks mean the detail was not found online, not that it does not exist.

Each circle is a city, sized by how many public facilities were found there — hover for the facility list, click to jump to that city in the directory. Facilities share a city-level position because exact coordinates were not collected. Green circles mark cities where at least one facility publishes hours, fees or booking details.
Menlo Park is the only city publishing a full reservation system: courts at Burgess, Nealon, Willow Oaks, Kelly and La Entrada run $10/hour for residents and $15/hour for non-residents, with drop-in also allowed at several sites — menlopark.gov
Explicitly free play is confirmed at 12 facilities, such as Burlingame's Washington Park, where four courts carry no fee and lights run until 10 pm — burlingame.org
Palo Alto's Weisshaar Park is the lone hourly-priced city court outside Menlo Park, at $5.00–$10.00 per court per hour — cityofpaloalto.org
99 of the 163 rows rest solely on a third-party tennis directory; confirm those before travelling — e.g. globaltennisnetwork.com

The directory, city by city

Method: 163 facility rows for 23 South Bay and Peninsula cities, one row per normalized facility, gathered from municipal parks pages, school community-use pages, tennis directories and reservation systems indexed as of September 2, 2026. Scope was ordinary public outdoor play; private clubs, hotels, residences, proposals and pickleball-only sites were excluded during semantic review. Court counts are tennis courts only, excluding pickleball-only courts where sources made that distinction. A blank cell reads “Not found online” — it never implies free or unrestricted use. Rows backed only by a third-party directory (99 of 163) should be independently confirmed; schedules, fees, school access, construction closures and reservation rules change. Nothing was cut: every row appears in the table.
