Augusta offers an easygoing pace with quick connections to regional hubs like Eau Claire and neighboring Osseo, while the Eau Claire County countryside stretches out in every direction. Weekends often start at the photogenic Dells Mill and Museum, where the 19th-century grist mill and grounds invite camera-ready strolls and history-rich tours at the privately run, lovingly preserved Dells Mill Museum. Outdoor time is a given: Lake Eau Claire’s bays and islands reward anglers, paddlers, and snowmobilers, and local stewards like the Lake Eau Claire Association help keep the water and trails in great shape. Families also tap the county’s trailheads, boat launches, and beaches managed by the Eau Claire County Parks & Forest.
Education anchors daily life. The Augusta Area School District offers close-knit classrooms, athletics, and hands-on learning, while nearby higher-ed options such as Chippewa Valley Technical College and the University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire expand opportunities for dual-credit coursework, career upskilling, and continuing education. Summer brings community traditions, including the hometown celebration of Bean and Bacon Days, with a parade, live music, and family activities in the city park. Everyday errands stay simple thanks to local shops and services, and commuters appreciate straight-line drives to job centers in Eau Claire and Osseo.
