Waterparks are thought to be a summertime novelty, but when you hail from the Mount Rushmore State, you know that it is a year-round tradition, as many of our biggest and best parks are located inside. Genius, right? For the most fun and iconic waterpark of all, however, you are going to want to visit the one and only Watiki Waterpark:

Located in Rapid City, the Waitiki Waterpark is an epic 30,000-square-foot oasis that features something for the entire family, plus on-site dining, an arcade, and other fun surprises.
