Course Report
Olive Glenn has been rated by Golf Digest as one of the 'Best Places to Play' in Wyoming, attracting both regional and traveling golfers seeking a scenic mountain course experience.
About
Olive Glenn Golf & Country Club, designed by Bob Baldock in 1970, is a public 18-hole par 72 parkland course in Cody, Wyoming. Nestled in the Big Horn Basin surrounded by mountain scenery, it is known for its open fairways, manicured greens, and accessible layout, appealing to local and visiting golfers alike.
Caddie Tip
The greens are smooth but subtly contoured—focus on reading breaks carefully. The course rewards accuracy rather than length off the tee, so aim for the wider landing areas and avoid getting out of position on doglegs. Wind can also play a factor, especially on the exposed holes.
The Main Challenge
The course’s biggest challenge comes from the shifting mountain winds and subtle slopes in the fairways and greens. Many holes reward precise tee shots and thoughtful approaches, especially when pins are tucked. The finishing stretch can be demanding under tournament conditions, testing nerves and shot-making skills.
The Good
Golfers consistently praise the open, scenic layout with panoramic views of surrounding mountains. The well-maintained fairways and greens provide a pleasant experience for all skill levels, and visitors note the friendly staff and relaxed pace, making it an enjoyable round for both locals and travelers.
The Not So Good
Some players mention slow play during peak summer weekends and desire more challenging green complexes or additional course features. There are occasional remarks about inconsistent rough and bunkers, with suggestions for further upgrades to practice facilities and on-course amenities.
