About this course
Rib Mountain Golf Course sits next to the Granite Peak Ski Area in Wausau, Wisconsin, on a short nine-hole layout that dates to the late 1950s. The course is family run, with the Oliva family serving as longtime owners and managers.
Holes are short and open, giving beginners room to play while offering a quick round for regulars who return year after year. Local golfers describe it as forgiving off the tee, with few water hazards or bunkers to catch stray shots.
Rib Mountain plays to a par of 32 across nine holes and is open to public, daily-fee play from spring through fall. It draws early and late-season crowds, often opening in late winter when conditions allow and closing once snow returns.
