City - Wausau

While there is a variety of rentals in the Wausau metropolis, the early bird catches the worm. The city’s rent rates are often more affordable than those in surrounding areas, which makes it even cheaper to rent an apartment with roommates or a growing family.

Converted warehouses downtown offer unique apartments that are in walking distance of everything, such as Limericks Public House and Red Eye Brewing Company. Several large apartments have popped up near Northcentral Technical College’s campus, and you may want to live near Stewart Avenue if you’re attending classes at the University of Wisconsin-Marathon County.

Wausau has been named one of Wisconsin’s Bird Cities – and a renewed effort to add bike lanes in addition to its many walking paths has enabled residents to get in touch with nature. There are many parks, several blooming gardens, and multiple fresh markets that afford residents fresh produce weekly.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Love Living Here

I’ve lived at Island Place Apartments for 2 years, going on 3 years. My partner and I absolutely love it here and have no plans of leaving. It’s always quiet and the common areas are clean. The neighbors are friendly!My favorite part is how responsive staff are and the individualized care we receive. They know us by name and are always saying hello. Our few maintenance requests are always fulfilled within a few days. Highly recommend living here, plus the price is unbeatable!

Property Manager at Island Place Apartments - On the River, Responded To This Review

Thank you for the wonderful review! I'm very happy to hear that you've had a great experience here at Island Place! We work really hard to ensure that our residents have a safe, comfortable and peaceful living environment.

6/11/24
Still no air conditioning

The residents of Island Place still have no working AC! And no time frame as to when it will be working again. It’s getting too hot outside for the air not to be working. Some of the apartments are getting up to 85 degrees. Too hot! It’s advertised as having air conditioning so let’s get it working!

5/20/24
Great location crappy old building.

You do not have control of air conditioning if it works. The building is old and not cared for. Roof tiles blowing off. The roof leaks and no plan to fix. Wait for anyone to fix anything. I could never recommend renting here.
