Unique Octagon Ski Lodge in heart of Rib Mountain State Park with hot tub

Welcome to Åttekant Cabin! Attekant is Norwegian for octagon, the shape of this very unique home. True to original octagon architecture, this 8-sided house features a large patio and wrap-around veranda along with a hot tub, three fireplaces and lots of space to host family and friends.

Great location, one of only a few homes within the State Park. Minutes away from Rib Mountain retail stores and restaurants while being located on Granite Peak Ski Hill with hiking trails and all sorts of outdoor recreation right out the front door.

Explore Granite Peak Ski Resort! Provides year-round fun for people of all ages, with a wide range of activities from scenic lift rides in the summer to premier skiing in the winter. If you are looking for more ways to get your adrenaline pumping, Nine Mile Forest is just a few minutes away with miles of mountain biking, snowshoeing and cross-country trails.

This premier ski property is just a short drive away from the top of the mountain where you can park your car and ski down. It also makes a quick and easy drive down to the home at the end of the day without having to deal with general parking at the ski resort (this property is not ski-in, ski-out). After a long day of adventuring the mountain, enjoy a fire in the outdoor firepit, cozy up to one of the three fireplaces, or relax in the large 7-person outdoor hot tub and enjoy the stars!

Spring Ski Trip
Great location for skiing at Granite Peak. Three other Dads and I brought eight 13 year old boys up for an annual ski trip. The sleeping arrangements, kitchen and access to the state park lot at the top of the mountain made this trip a great success.

Great place, great location!
We come to Wausau annually for a ski trip and this has been the best place we’ve stayed at by far. For experienced riders, you can drop in at the State Park just up the road from the house. Otherwise Granite Peak is just a short seven minute drive away. We had four adults and five kids in our group, there was plenty of space for everyone. The hosts have done a wonderful job to make the cabin feel just like home and the hot tub is an added bonus! Thanks Kari and Ivan for everything.
