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.

Finding an apartment in Chippewa Falls that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.
While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.
If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
