Olympic Training Center Review

Just stopped by for ten minutes yesterday. Nice complex and grounds but some areas are currently under construction (July 2017). Decent restrooms. Trendy sportswear shop. Lots of tours available. Tour required to see the grounds. Probably won't go again.

Pride of Colorado Springs. A must see. Great location, memorial park and fireman memorial just a few blocks South of training center.

Great to u understand and know what happens to prepare.

Went on the tour with my youth group and had an amazing time on the tour. The guide was informative and engaging and we even got to talk to a real Olympic wrestler who we met outside the athletes residences.
To top it all off the group we were with rented out the actual gym. How about playing basketball on the same court Lebron, KD, and Curry practiced on. Awesome.
I also picked up a fire shirt from the gift shop.

Tour was great and fascinating. Really a state of the art facility.

A great place to learn what it takes to become an Olympian. Always worth a trip during Olympic season.

Visited the facility with my teenager daughters during their winter schedule (1 tour per hour starting at top of hour from 9-4pm). Easy parking on site, 5min from downtown, $15/pers, 1hr tour with a great guide.
Highly recommending.

Tours available. Fantastic gift shop! There's a place on the exterior where they count down to the Olympics. Beautiful facility

Gary was very rude he was not letting anyone talk he was just the rudest

Can you believe this place will not accept any credit cards besides Visa! They definitely suck! Very unamerican of the USA Olympic training center

We love America! The US Olympic Training Center has a lot of things to look at. It has a souvenir shop too!

Awesome tour, inspiring just to see where Team USA trains. We had 2 athletes as our tour guides! Great way to spend a couple of hours.

great for practice, terrible for meets. pools always cold, i love it but some dont.

Very interesting tour packed with fun facts; highly recommended as a "must do" in Colorado springs.

Respect these specimens folks. They represent this heavenly country. I take off my hat and place my hand on my heart with great pride. God bless the US.

Beautiful Training center, met some athletes who were very friendly and informative. It was a very cool experience.

Tour groups are limited is sizes so it's nice to have an almost one on one tour. Our tour guide was very informative and energetic. Great way to see where many of the Olympians train.

Went on the paid tour of the center, and it was very cool to see all the different training facilities. Our tour guide, Chris, was very knowledgeable and had some great facts. The tour lasted about 30 minutes and I left smarter than I was going in.

If you like the Olympics it's definitely something interesting to go see and take the tour

These guys are doing a great job for our Olympic athletes!

The tour was great and our tour guide was an actual active Olympic athlete who was previously training for the 2018 Olympic Games. We got to see a lot of the facilities but we couldn t go on to the pool deck. It was only visible from a fogged up window. Anyways the experience was great but the pool thing really bummed me out.

Even if your not training for the Olympics to can still enjoy a tour of this place. The tours are great for kids,couples families & tourists alike. It is pretty high security & tours should be. Planned ahead. Beautiful area, lots to see, learn & watch. Definitely bring your camera!

I love how this center shows you the hard work and effort that is put into a sport that they love. Nothing like supporting the USA.

Great deals at the Olympic store! It also gives you that proud to be an American feeling!

THIS PLACE IS AWESOME! I spent the money on the Gold Tour and it was worth it. Had an awesome guide who took us everywhere and met Coach Zadick, HC of the Freestyle Wrestling team (big for me as I am a wrestling fan). Then got to have lunch with our group in the Athlete dining hall.

I'm new here is super fun out there that the government

Amazing facilities for even more amazing athletes. Tour guide was great - clear and loud enough for everyone to hear. 5 stars

Had the opportunity to go on a VIP tour and was able to meet a couple of the athletes. I found it to be interesting and at times inspiring.

If you like sports, America and the Olympics, this is the place for you. The admission is $17 for adults and around $10 for kids and is totally worth it. It's really fun to experience the place where some of the world's greatest athletes train so that they can be the best of the best. The guides were really cool and informative the two times I've gotten to visit. It's also really fun for little kids because they get to look around, explore the complex & look at the cool gadgets the Olympians use to train.

It was neat to see the different areas that the olympic training takes place. Some areas such as the pool you can only view through the glass. We toured on the 4th of July so many people were off and areas were closed however we still were able to see people training . Overall a good experience.

Interesting place to visit huge place you can see people training. Our tour guide was funny and i polite too.

We had a great time on our tour with our tour guide Taylor. He was very knowledgeable and personable. An interesting tour turned into an amazing one for us when USA Freestyle Wrestlng Head Coach Bill Zadick noticed our Husker gear and then asked Olympic Gold Medalist Jordan Burroughs (wrestled for Nebraska) to come out and meet us. Taylor was kind enough to hold up the tour for us and Jordan couldn't have been nicer. We can't thank all of them enough for going out of their way to make this an unforgettable experience for us!

Tour of facilities was interesting. Gift shop and video presentation weak. Olympics in two months so no athletes present today

Player play Olympic Training U. S.
Games

Very cool place to visit and see where our great potential Olympians train. Gor to to witness the Hall of Fame 2019 Induction Ceremony. Very moving

The main visitor center was under construction. A great complex with a lot of history, but nothing that stands out as a Wow factor unless you're into certain olympic fields. Our tour guide was monotone but he was knowledgeable. We were able to see the fencing, wrestling, and gymnastic areas as well as the pool and the living quarters. Cheap to tour if you're in the area.

Amazing! Tour is informative and behind-the-scenes. Recommend going in an olympic year, because the place is full of athletes preparing for trials and the upcoming games. This is a must-stop in Colorado Springs.

Love this amazing facility. Everyone was so friendly. Can t wait to come back here again soon!

Great free tour! Recommend going during the week in order to see athletes training

You'll be amazed over both the facilities and the dedication of the athletes.

I had high expectations for touring the CSOTC. I was let down a little. You only get to see a small area of an already small campus. Nonetheless it is impressive. I know tour guides vary but our particular guide couldn t answer very many questions. My advice would be to contact them ahead of time and see what athletes are training or it there are any events so you can witness the action.

We went on the bronze tour. It took about 2 hours, and we were able to see the conditioning space, rehabilitation center, pool, basketball court, wrestling and boxing rooms, and shooting range. I haven t visited the OTC since early 2013 and I m so impressed with how different the facilities are now! Amelia Moore was our tour guide and she facilitated an incredibly captivating, joyous, and entertaining tour full of fun facts and little stories. Highly recommend! ***Google maps took us to the employee and athlete entrance - the entrance for visitors is a left turn at the light before google will tell you to turn, if you are coming from Platte ave.

Always clean and professional at the training center.

I absolutely loved visiting the training center today. As a student who wants to work with paraplegic athletes one day, I really appreciated the Gold tour I took with Payton. It s a tour of all of the facilities, and a meal with some of the athletes! It s a very immersive experience and totally worth the time.

We did the Silver Tour, which is smaller groups with more behind the scenes viewing. Our guide Peyton was excellent; he provided lots of good information and interesting facts. The tour is about 1.25 hrs and takes you inside the weight room, wresting area, boxing area, and gyms; as well as some of the training centers.You get to see some of the athletes in action. If you are in the area and like Olympics/athletes, I recommend it.

Tours were canceled today check website to make sure they have resumed

Great tour. Our family of seven did the silver tour and it was worth the money. Kasey did a fantastic job leading us thru the facilities, sharing info, answering questions, and letting us meet some of the Olympians.
Amazing.

WOW. 110% more fun than I could have imagined. Super fun tour for kids and families. 14/10 gold medal

This was an awesome experience. I absolutely love the Olympics so when I found out one of the Training Center's was in Colorado Springs, I said that I had to go. When I got there I found out that it was free to get in. They took you on a tour of the entire campus letting you see where the athletes train and live and eat and everything. This was a great attraction for families and was a very friendly environment with all of the staff and athletes. All of the tour guides were very knowledgeable which made it very interesting. I actually learned a lot about the Olympics overall and how things work for Team USA. I highly recommend it.

Awesome place to see. A whole new look into the lives of athletes and what they endure to train. A great respect to them all. So glad I went.

Wasnt able to enter since they have no place to store luggage for visitors.

A very cool place to see where some elite Olympic athletes train.

A bit expensive for the tour with not too much to see.

Great experience, but $14/person for an hour tour seems excessive...so we opted to spend it in the gift shop ;-)

Budget a couple hours to see this and definitely take the guided tour - you'll see and learn way more about the facility.

Absolute excellent very informative and interesting beautiful place

The guided tour starts with watching an introductory video followed by touring parts of the facility including training areas for shooting, wrestling, swimming, athlete residence, etc.. Our tour guide is very cheerful and informative. The tour lasts almost an hour and costs five bucks. Definitely worth a stop if you visit Colorado Springs.

Awesome place to visit but it costs $5 to take a tour. Not free as some others have posted. Mostly summer sports train here.

It was disappointing to return here and find out that there is no longer a free self-guided tour. Hardly anything to see in the visitor center but a gift shop. Sculpture garden is nice but small.

Really cool experience, the tour is a must. Currently remodeling the team USA store and Visitors center. Will be spectacular when its done. They are still open now but many of the exhibits have been moved or are under construction. Might want to call ahead to see where they are at.

Just $5 for such an informative tour! Sooooo worth it! If you're even mildly interested in the Olympics, take this tour to see how aspiring Olympians train! I only docked one star because I was expecting to dump a load of money in the gift shop for olympic (Nike) gear but the selection was underwhelming and not particularly stylish.

Loved the tour of the U.S OTC. The video you watch at the beginning will give you the chills. I recommend this tour to anyone, locals and visitors.

Great place to visit while in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Don't forget to visit the gift shop to help support the athletes!

This is a magnificent facility full of hope & inspiration. Great staff that was very helpful, funny & knowledgeable about the campus. I got a chance to meet athletes from various sports who are medalists & current world champions !!! Despite their achievements, they were very helpful and extremely humble. I had a wonderful experience and recommend everyone to check it out if they are ever in the Springs.

The grounds and facilities are very nice, the video during the tour was captivating and moving, but the tour itself was just alright.

My son got Pneumonia & seizure during the 3 day of the 4 days Winter Waterpolo camp. We were blessed that Jen Gudmundsson from USA Water Polo took him to Urgent care and accompanied him most of time. She is very professional and updating us all the time with text and calls. My family are very thankful for her kindness. Jen, you are the best.

Great place and I could see from the inside what the athlete's hard road looks like to the top. The center is well equipped, rooms divided into sport sections, everything you need in one place.
