Here is the honest picture for Bonita Springs: the city itself is thin on public outdoor courts, but you are 15 minutes from plenty. The city runs indoor sessions in its Recreation Center gym, Lee County's Estero Recreation Center sets up as many as 9 indoor courts on weekday mornings for a one time $10 membership, and Three Oaks Park in San Carlos Park has lighted outdoor courts. Add the Bonita Springs YMCA and a 12 court outdoor complex at Sports Challenge America and you have real options.
