Planning trip to PR area-need help

Hi, I%26#39;m a native MNsotan, moved away but homesick all the time so visit as often as possible. Dream of moving home some day soon...anyway, can you all give me some ideas on resorts in your area? I%26#39;m trying to find the resort thats on Lake Ida just out of Park Rapids but no luck yet. Also interested in Big and Little Sand lake area. Need a resort that%26#39;s got reasonable rates and is clean. Familiar with area so don%26#39;t concern yourself with directions and dining places-love Dorset:-) Thanks in advance. Plantfreek

I thought they closed down those 2 resorts on Ida to build townhomes. Here%26#39;s a link to some resorts in that area:
