A good check in the box, but not much to it. Free, so the value is good, but only a relatively small portion is open to tourists.

Love to visit the training center and see the training olympians. This is a great place to take kids who are athletic and aspire to succeed in their chosen sports. There are people training here year round, although some times of the season are better than others.

This is one of 3 Olympic training centers in the USA....the others are in Lake Placid, NY (more winter sports), and California (more summer outdoor sport), so this facility handles summer 'indoor' sports, like swimming, fencing, wrestling, etc. I enjoyed the tour, given by an Olympic hopeful, but dissapointed that not all Olympians go through here. The tour is free,... More

If you have the time...or better yet, make the time to visit this place. They have a free tour of the different buildings/training centers and we were lucky enough to catch the last one when we went. To know that the Olympians trained here is pretty awesome feeling!

Another free attraction which is great to hear. We got there right in time for the last tour and they showed a short video which was very helpful. There were no athletes around to give us the tour although the guide was helpful. They are remodeling so their were a couple buildings closed for general public. It was nice to... More

Always a nice place to visit here. Large gift shop. Alot of Olympic items on display. So many wonderful memories for olympic enthusiasts like me. Ample parking and no fees. Always enjoy coming here. Would enjoy a larger tour of the facilities if possible to see more plus they are expanding.

Free tours by athletes. The movie at the beginning of the tour is wonderful. It highlighted some great moments in USA Olympic history. The sculptures through the facility are interesting and provide another perspective on the sports represented.

We toured on saturday around noon. There was not a single athlete training and several buildings are closed. If you go, go on a different day. The movie was not very good. It showed very quick clips of some winter olympic activities and the London summer olympics. It would have been a lot more interesting if they would have followed... More

I enjoyed the tour of the Olympic Training Center. We saw athletes in training, at work and at play. The gift shop has a bargain rack [ask for it] and the campus of the Center is well decorated with Olympic memorabilia. Take a look inside the "room" on the steps up from the visitor center to the athletes' living area.... More
