About Our Wausau Community

At Primrose, life really is carefree! We strive to create healthy, secure environments for all our residents, where they feel valued, respected and free to live on their own schedules.

First-Class Amenities

Spacious floor plans, modern appliances, delicious meals, lively entertainment and gorgeous scenery of our local community ensure that your retirement experience at Primrose is always rewarding.

Comfort and Convenience

The Primrose lifestyle is maintenance-free, so you never need to worry about or schedule time for chores. Gone are the days of lawn mowing, household repairs, laundry and other maintenance tasks that would normally take up your entire day. We take care of everything from snow removal to repairs to providing 3 delicious, home-cooked meals every single day.

Rich Community Entertainment

Enjoying the programming options and social events at Primrose, as well as around the surrounding Wausau community, will add excitement to your everyday routine. You can choose to spend the day inside our community—at the library, in the theater, at the fitness center, or in our cafe—or you can venture outside into the great city of Wausau for some local shopping, hiking, cycling, or dining. We offer transportation options to help you get where you want to go in style and with ease.

Support for Your Health & Wellness

Your safety and security are always at the top of our minds. Our nursing staff is on-site 24/7, and wellness checks are scheduled at regular intervals, so you know you’re always getting the best care possible from our friendly team. If you do require support with certain daily activities, Primrose offers assisted living apartments, where you’ll have access to the help you need without it disrupting your independence.

We’re here to support you, not hinder you, which means every service we provide is done with respect and integrity.

What Our Residents Have to Say:

  • We have lived with our dog Duke at Primrose since it has opened about 3 years ago. Being able to live in our home for many years was a gift but we knew that it was time to downsize and move to a smaller home. What we enjoy most here at Primrose is being part of a community. The people are wonderful, the activities are both educational and fun, and the food is amazing! Living so close to people keeps us both healthier and happier. We can come and go as we please, and take part in the activities that we wish to do. I think the advice I would give to others that are thinking about moving is to stop thinking about it. Moving to Primrose was the best thing that we have ever decided to do!

  • I lived here since they opened in 2018. Professionally I did a lot of clerical work for the city, county, and state. When I was younger I worked at Moon Beach Church Camp, where my parents were camp cooks. I also enjoyed playing the ukulele while my Mom played the piano at the camp. After my husband passed away my place was too big for just me and I needed to downsize. Although I was apprehensive to move, being alone was lonely and I needed to be around people. People are kind here and like a family. I look forward to simple things here like coffee time in the morning, the noon meal, and Happy Hour! There is always so much going on from ice cream socials, book club, and bridge, to just simply walking outside. A little secret that I want to share with the world… the staff is awesome, they really care!

  • Primrose is a high quality residence where my grandmother currently lives. I’ve enjoyed my visits and my Grandma loves the environment and community, participating in many of its activities. The location is clean and the team there seems very friendly and caring. The pub is very cool and we’ve had impromptu family gatherings there.
