Fans of beer might already know that Chippewa Falls is the home of the Jacob Leinenkugel Brewing Company. Leinie's as beer lovers know the brand as, is a manufacturer of Shandys and a popular Honey Weiss.
Honey Weiss is not the only drink that originates from the small town located in northwestern Wisconsin. You can also purchase Chippewa Falls bottled water, which comes from the Chippewa Spring and is available to consumers in greater Wisconsin and the Midwest. The original spring, which was discovered by an early settler more than 300 years ago, remains in a spring house while a contemporary water plant is just across the street in Chippewa Falls and continues to make delicious, natural water. In the middle of winter, all of that free-flowing water becomes snow and ice, which offers fishing, sledding, snowmobiling and other activities that you just won't find south of the Mason-Dixon line.
The Chippewa River cuts right through Chippewa falls before the river leads to Lake Wissota, which borders the town to the east. With access to several major highways, an interstate highway and a railway system that connects the town to the rest of the state, Chippewa Falls remains connected to the surrounding area. A short way to the south, you'll find Eau Claire, a larger city, and you can hop on Interstate 29 and head to the west to cross the Mississippi River into Minnesota and enjoy a long weekend full of music, shopping, dining and nightlife in the Twin Cities.

Balconies are a coveted amenity for many renters looking for high-rise views and opportunities for fresh air. However, you should keep in mind that balconies often come with restrictions.
Before signing a lease, ask about how many people can be on the balcony at once. Also, ask about whether you’re allowed to store a bike or other items.
You’ll also want to know about any maintenance schedules. Using your balcony as storage could result in fines and intervention from your property management.
Keep in mind that not all balconies are created equally. You may discover the views of the parking area are less than optimal or reduce your overall privacy.
Balconies can also get messy with debris, foliage, dirt, and pollen depending on your location. Renters are typically responsible for any clean-up and basic balcony upkeep.
Regardless of the issues to keep in mind, balconies are usually a big win for Chippewa Falls renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
