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.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

not recommended

there are a few reasons actually. here are a few of them to deter you from renting from the current whispering pines management. 30 yr old water heaters. no doorbells. no playground. no garbage disposal.

6/2/20
Highly recommend!

I just moved out, had no issues the entire time I lived here. Great staff and management. If I ever move back to the area I'd apply again!

11/16/19
Excellent management

The property manager is so incredibly helpful with not only the application process but every step there after. The property is beautiful and so welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place to call home.

9/22/18
Townhome

I did not rent a townhome, but I had an appointment scheduled for showing at 10:30 AM. I am very disappointed at the apartment manager on site/ the management. When I arrived, she told me that the hometown is no longer available, and someone was in the process of filling the application. I traveled from Stevens Point, and she couldn’t even called ahead to inform me. In addition, no appointments can be made after Friday evening through the weekend, because she has to take care of her mother. That is reasonable, however, management/company owner should really consider having another on site manager. We should not have to fit our schedule into someone else’s schedule.

10/13/15
Best for the price.

These apartments are great for the price. 2 Bedroom just 660 a month. The Appliances are up to date and well maintained while the heating and cooling work good. All around the price can't be beat in the Wausau area.

8/17/14
One bedroom unit is ok

So negatives first: Said they were going to replace broken blinds, 16 days later and nothing has been done. There was pet hair everywhere when I moved in. The flooring and carpet are old. There are stains on walls and ceilings that simply painting would have fixed. The heat vent in the bathroom is all covered in rust (could also have been painted). There is no patio door, only a few windows. The driveway into the parking area is extremely steep and if not moving extremely slow the bottom of my car scrapes the pavement. No utilities are included except for trash. Only one lock on the door. Positives: The neighborhood is nice and peaceful, seems safe, and the neighbors are nice. The ceiling is vaulted. There is a lot of cupboard space and the cupboards look new. Garage, washer/dryer, dishwasher and A/C are included. The carpet isn't bad, just older. There is a lot of cabinet space in the bathroom. Management is just a call away as the assistant manager lives on-site. Overall, for the price you think you could expect a little more. At least a patio door and a small deck/porch would be nice. It looks a little like a studio apartment when you walk in but then you realize there is more space than it first appears. The vaulted ceiling also gives it a nice look.

10/26/13
Perfect if you want to be close to Stettin School

The apartments are clean and I like how close it is to Stettin School. My kids have a lot of friends around the neighborhood and I feel comfortable with them biking around the neighborhood alone. The only complaint I have are the kids playing in the streets all the time - it makes driving to the apartment difficult.

2/11/13
Great apartment and amazing staff

Whispering Pines is a amazing apartment complex. The staff is very patience and understanding to my needs. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. So much space!! Overall a 5 out of 5.
