PLATFORM TENNIS

ALL YEAR ROUND PLATFORM

At Owl’s Nest Resort in Thornton, New Hampshire, the platform tennis offering stands out as a premium year-round amenity nestled in the White Mountains. The resort’s racquet complex features four heated platform tennis courts, making it the first publicly accessible facility of its kind in New Hampshire. These courts are built to accommodate play in all seasons, ensuring that platform tennis isn’t limited to just winter months.

Players can take advantage of a variety of formats, including 30- and 60-minute court rentals, clinics for different skill levels, as well as leagues and tournaments throughout the year. The scenic backdrop of the White Mountains adds significantly to the experience, offering a beautiful environment for racquet sport enthusiasts of all levels.

ALL YEAR ROUND PLATFORM

  • Booking ahead: Because this is a resort facility (not just a local club), court time may fill up, especially during peak season or when there are events. It’s a good idea to reserve in advance.
  • Equipment: If you don’t have your own platform tennis racquet/gear, the resort provides rentals ($10 racquet rental listed).
  • Seasonality & weather: While the courts are heated and year-round, winter in the White Mountains can still bring things like snow, shorter daylight — so check whether play times are affected (lighting, access) especially in early morning/evening.
  • Event hosting: If you’re organizing a group (say for your Beer Walk event or as a guest group) the resort offers tournament-package options (with lodging + courts) which could be leveraged for a fun group outing.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about this resort. If you’re thinking about having your wedding here, do it!! I got married here in October and it was a dream. The venue is so beautiful (we got married at the pavilion – the view is incredible) and the resort overall is so clean and there’s so much to do!
My family and friends loved it. My day of coordinator Haylea was phenomenal – she is on top of everything and is so friendly! My husband and I can’t wait to go back next October.

Expensive, room had stained carpet. Dirty towel on bathroom floor and beard hair all over the sink and floor in the bathroom. Would not recommend.

Owl’s nest was single-handedly everything we dreamed of for our wedding. It had everything we wanted for our special weekend in October 2025. The resort has so many lodging options for guests, and being from other states and having a majority of guests traveling 2.5/3 hours, it was great that everything was on site. Including delicious restaurant options and the market and spa! My groom was able to golf the day before our wedding with his friends, and our guests golfed all weekend. Our rehearsal dinner was at the BoatHouse and it was stunning and just a smaller version of our wedding at the Lakehouse! Our guests loved the welcome party option after the rehearsal dinner and it was so great to be able to spend so much one on one time with guests the day before the wedding, giving us more time for each other the day of the the wedding. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, from start to finish. Taylor was our senior event specialist, and she was incredible. She was so great with communicating with us and just understood my vision on the wedding! She was so helpful the day of and had notes on absolutely everything from the right napkin fold to what drinks we wanted after the ceremony for my entire wedding party. She was organized and professional and on top of it! Owl’s Nest truly made us feel special in every way. We weren’t rushed out of the venue the night of to take all of our decor down like other venues I’ve been too. Taylor and the chef helped with dietary restrictions for guests and even heated up gluten free apple cider donuts that I bought for one of my guests and delivered them to her table. Every single detailed was executed perfectly. Even the send off breakfast the next morning my guests raved about. I couldn’t have been more happy with our decision to get married at Owl’s Nest. And we cannot wait to come back and celebrate our anniversary on resort for many years to come. Special thank you to Taylor, Amy and the entire team!

Had our wedding here on 9/27/25 at the Lakehouse...was lucky enough to have Victoria and Taylor as my wedding coordinators!! They were so amazing and it felt like I knew them as my friends for years. Kailee was also the lodging coordinator and made everything a breeze for me. I was so worried about space for people and she made everything work. I could write and entire book about how Owl's Nest made our dreams come true with our wedding. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Top notch service, the bar staff, the catering staff everyone in between. Lisa or Linda (sorry) was so great and helpful for my rehearsal dinner at the Sunset Pavilion and also for our reception! The food I was nervous about because the wedding food tasting wasn't great but the food ended up being absolutely delicious. The whole day felt like a dream. I look back at photos and cry at how amazing it was! They truly care about you and your experience and show that they want to make it the best day of your life. It was so incredible I wish I could go back in time and do it all over again. We would say we would come back and do it again but we're only planning on getting married once lol. Can't wait to come back for a visit for our 1 year anniversary :)

I got married here in April 2025. Our experience with Owl’s Nest was absolutely incredible from start to finish! From the moment we toured the venue with Gail, we knew this was where we wanted to get married. She made the entire booking process so easy and helped us choose the perfect date. Owl’s Nest truly offers an all-in-one experience — the on-site lodging made it so convenient for our family and friends, and every space on the property is breathtaking. We hosted our wedding in The Lakehouse, which was stunning, and originally planned to have our rehearsal dinner and welcome party in The Vault. When our guest list grew, the team seamlessly moved our welcome party to The Sunset Pavilion, and it worked out perfectly! We even reserved the golf simulators at Slice, which added such a fun touch for our guests. A huge thank-you to Taylor, our event planner — she was absolutely amazing. She put so much thought and detail into everything and made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. The night before and the day of the wedding, she and her team went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. I was nervous about vendor coordination, and Taylor personally reached out to each one to confirm everything so I wouldn’t have to worry. On our wedding day, she was my cheerleader, problem-solver, and calm in the chaos. I know Owl’s Nest has several planners, but I truly feel so lucky to have had Taylor. She made our entire experience unforgettable, and we could not have asked for a better venue or team. I would recommend Owl’s Nest to any couple looking for a beautiful, seamless, and joy-filled wedding experience!
