As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.

Nebraska is the most landlocked state in the country, but that doesn’t mean we don’t love our time on the water. Lucky for us, we have plenty of lakes and rivers to satisfy our need for beach time. To make the most of your next water-centric vacation, consider these lakefront accommodations.
