Terms & Conditions

Terms of Admission

Our goal is to preserve the comfort of all visitors and ensure that all visitors can enjoy their experience here. Three simple principles form the core of all OLT management.

Recognition… Respect… Responsibility

All guests are provided with specific guidelines, reminding them of the sensitive nature of each property and others they share it with.

OLT’s policies apply to everyone visiting the Orient Land Trust’s property. They formalize these Guidelines if ever clarification be required. OLT’s makes these policies easy to find and presents each as clearly and transparently as possible. The policies are also available as a booklet available at the Welcome Center.

Orient Land Trust makes every effort to solicit and utilize suggestions from contributors and visitors. In order to continue to serve you well, your input is essential. We invite you to make your thoughts known by sending us an email at [email protected], or give us a call at 719.256.4315

Admission Requirements

• All visitors are asked to register each time they visit.
• Parents or guardians must list all children accompanying them.
• Pets must also be listed. A pet fee is required at Valley View.
• Each adult visitor is required to present a photo identification.

Admission Limits

Admission limits serve to reduce the influence of an individual or group over the other visitors present.

Every visitor is limited to 10 days (9 nights) per month.

The size of a group is limited to six guests.

Calling to confirm availability is always recommended. The earliest you may call for a reservation is the same date you desire to arrive 3, 2, 1 month or 2 weeks earlier. For example, two months before an arrival date of June 10th is 9am on April 10th.

Both day and overnight use of Orient Land Trust is subject to daily quotas. All use may be reserved in advance. Reservations are highly recommended and is the only way of ensuring admission. Walk-ins will be admitted on a space available basis if quotas are not filled. See information about admission requirements, user fees, pets etc.

Orient Land Trust and Valley View Hot Springs are open to the public.
