Facility Notes
Stanford Masters Swimming has an excellent page on the etiquette of a Masters swimmer visiting another Masters club. The page is Stanford Masters Swim Away From Home. If you'll be visiting Stanford, you'll want to read it before you go.
Facility Reviews
Not open to the public, but a great Masters' team with plenty of workouts. Impeccably clean and the water temperature is usually perfect.
Two great outdoor pools and grounds as noted above, the pools seem chlorine-free and may use bromine. OK locker area, no other goodies like sauna. Not really good about checking IDs. [May no longer be true. Eds.] Masters team contact may get you in.
Some say one needs to see Paris before dying; I say swimming in one of the Averys has to be on that same list.
