International Tennis Hall of Fame

Newport, Rhode Island, United States

Though not a resort, the International Tennis Hall of Fame & Museum in Newport is a must-visit for tennis enthusiasts. Located at the historic Newport Casino, the complex features 13 grass courts open to the public, where the first U.S. Tennis Championships were held. Visitors can explore the museum’s extensive tennis memorabilia and interactive exhibits or play on the original grass courts. Additionally, the Casino’s Court Tennis court offers a chance to experience the sport’s origins, guided by pros who teach the rules and craft the unique balls required for the game.

Playing on grass at the International Tennis Hall of Fame offers a unique challenge, as the ball barely rebounds off the turf, but the key is to embrace the fun of the experience. John Austin, former ATP pro and Wimbledon mixed doubles champion, became the director in April 2015, aiming to enhance the club's programming. During the outdoor season from mid-May to September, the club offers private lessons, clinics, social round robins, and Cardio tennis, with programs for juniors as well. The court complex includes 13 grass courts, three indoor hard courts, and one Court Tennis court, with grass court fees at $45 per person per hour.

La Forge Casino Restaurant offers year-round lunch and dinner, with summer options to dine on the Porch overlooking the grass or on the sidewalk in front of the Hall of Fame.

The Hall of Fame offers adult non-boarding tennis camps on select dates during the summer. For more details, visit the Hall of Fame's Play Tennis page. For lodging, consider Newport Hotels, with the nearby Hotel Viking on Bellevue Avenue being a frequent choice for Hall of Fame events.

The Hall of Fame is open year-round, with the grass-court season running from mid-May through September. Travel options include T.F. Green Airport (PVD) in Warwick, 26 miles away, and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), 74 miles east, both offering rental cars. Amtrak stops at West Kingston, 18 miles away, and Providence, 34 miles away.
