When you think of beach vacations, which places come to mind? Let us guess: Anywhere BUT South Dakota, right? While the Mount Rushmore State may not seem like an obvious beach getaway, our many lakes and shores make it a great place to swim and play, which is why we love accommodations like this hidden, beachfront cottage:

Welcome to the beautiful Lake Poinsett and its cozy beach cottage!
Airbnb
Located along the sandy shore, the cottage is a charming three-bedroom home that can accommodate up to nine guests via comfortable beds and other in-room amenities.

After getting a good night's sleep, it's time to whip up a hearty breakfast in the home's spacious, state-of-the-art kitchen!
