Enjoy Tennis at Soleil Laurel Canyon

The tennis center at Soleil Laurel Canyon is now complete thanks to the addition of two new hard courts. This facility also includes a full-time on-site tennis pro, pro shop and now eight lighted tennis courts with plenty of extras.

“The tennis center at Soleil rivals those at nice country clubs,” said Tom Cobb, director of the tennis program at Soleil as well as the head tennis pro. “I’ve seen many nice facilities, and for a residential community, Soleil is simply the best. So many of our residents and players from visiting ALTA teams have told me that our clay courts here at Soleil are the best they’ve ever played on. Now with the addition of our two new deco surface hard courts, our tennis center here at Soleil is truly a top-notch tennis center.”

Tennis is more than just a social activity for some residents of this active adult community in Canton, Ga. In fact, Soleil currently has five ALTA teams: three men’s teams and two women’s teams. These teams don't just play for fun. So far, Soleil residents have taken three ALTA city championships. Of course, the tennis center is always open to everyone.

“I would like to encourage all active adult tennis players to come look at our wonderful tennis facility at Soleil,” Cobb said. Cobb also offers lessons to Soleil prospects taking advantage of the unique Sneak-A-Peek 3 day/2 night promotion. This promotion is offered to prospects who are interested in buying at Soleil and want to spend more time experiencing the lifestyle first hand. Prospects stay in one of the two Sneak- A-Peek homes while enjoying two rounds of golf or tennis lessons, activities, breakfast or lunch for two and a private tour of the community.

If you're not into tennis, don't worry! Soleil Laurel offers several other activities for homeowners. The active adult community boasts a 24,000 square foot clubhouse with a library, teaching kitchen, ballroom, fitness center, aerobics and yoga classes and more. Outdoors, homeowners enjoy the community garden, zero-entry pool, walking trails, bocce ball and concerts at the outdoor amphitheater.
