Berlin, Wisconsin brings the charm of a Midwest small town to a locale that’s conveniently located near some incredible outdoor destinations. Just 22 miles west of Oshkosh, Berlin will delight renters in search of a peaceful small-town experience and an affordable apartment rental. The town is split by the Fox River, with the bulk of the rental and entertainment offering resting on the eastern side of the river. Locally owned restaurants and watering holes line Huron Street, as does Nathan Strong Park. Along the water you can find the Berlin City Aquatic Center and Longcroft Park, the former of which is a fun and convenient public water park complete with a slide and a wading pool.
Residents who don’t work in the immediate area commute to surrounding areas thanks to State Route 49 and the other thoroughfares that feed into Berlin.
