Not tennis fans, but we kept up with the big games, decided to go here on a 3 day Newport RI stay. WARNING: do not park across the street. It $2.50 per HALF hour. Once you drive in you cant back-out. Plus the rude teen attendant will just grab your money after you are charged $10 for 1:40 min. Street parking is impossible as this is smack in the middle of a shopping district. They have meters that take credit cards, its $1.25 an hour. Three hour limit, not sure if you can just re-do another 3 hours or if they chalk the tires. There is an elevator, AARP discount (eaten up by parking) and children discounts, air conditioned room. BRING CASH.. NONE of the parking areas take CC. Cash only. One car was pulled aside as the lady dug around for cash. The early item of tennis were interesting. They have lots of memorabilia of long ago you would never find elsewhere. There was only one video that had sound. The others were very bad (old TV recordings) of people playing tennis that were enlarged and just blurry. Youd think they could get some direct clean recordings. Again, no sound or anything of who is playing. Interesting... time stops at 1999. After that, just a few plaques for each of the years on one wall. So if you are a Williams sister fan, youll see a plaque and one dress. Lots of stuff from 70s-80s. Billy Jean King and that era. The grounds are nice, you can eat there (no idea of prices) and there are all sorts of tents up for various activities that are most likely private. Seeing the million + dollar yachts in the bay I am sure they have lots of private parties. If you can find street parking, it might be worth it. Traffic, need I say is bad, but not impossible. This is just "up the road" from the harbor, but not walk able. Must be at least a mile away. So if you pay $20 for all day parking (no exit and returns - youre kidding that would drop their profits in half) get your hiking boots. There are stores all over the place if you want to walk from the harbor. There is free parking...way way away from the harbor. Or bring quarters..lots of them.. Youll get to know the one way streets as you circle like a shark for a spot.

Me encanta que exista y se pueda visitar. Soy chilena y me emociona que nuestro gran Marcelo "chino" Rios pudiese integrar este magnifico salon, como reconocimiento a los "Grandes".

I saw Corbin Bleu here, and we played tennis together. It was lit. I couldve sworn that it was the best turn up Ive ever been to. I am going to arrange a trip to the Online Croquet Hall Of Fame. If anyone is interested in going hmu. Dont forget to buy my merchandise. Like, subscribe, comment. If you have any questions about the trip, ask.

A small museum and there are associated indoor and outdoor courts for tennis. There is an entry fee for the museum, which was waived due to our bank of America cards. I am not sure if I would have given the same rating if I had to pay for entrance. The museum is very well maintained and clean.
