Visit Park Rapids Catch a memory! Home to the only place in the world to tiptoe across the Headwaters of the Mississippi River. How do you catch a memory?

We’re home to the Headwaters of the Mississippi at Itasca State Park. Family-friendly resorts are sprinkled throughout the area, welcoming vacationers for generations. But the pleasures remain the same; a day on the water, catching a cool breeze, seeing loons duck and dive, and watching the clouds roll by, occasionally snagging a walleye, northern or panfish for some fine eating later. Since our lakes and woods never close, there are plenty of year-round activities; from silent sports such as hiking, biking, and cross country skiing to motor sports enjoying water recreation, ATVs, and snowmobiles. Savor the flavors of Dorset, the “Restaurant Capital of the World,” or stroll through the shops on Main in scenic Downtown Park Rapids. Immerse yourself in the arts and history. Take pleasure in hundreds of pristine lakes, miles of trails, and unique shopping in the Park Rapids Lakes Area.

🏕️Resort of the Week: Walters Resort 🏕️

This week’s featured resort is Walters Resort! Nestled right along the clear waters of Lake Ida. Walters Resort offers an ideal resort experience on Minnesota's beautiful lakes, with six lovely, full-fledged lakeside cabins with air conditioning and kitchen facilities, plus an RV site with lake access.

Lake Ida directly links to the Big Sand Lake and Little Sand Lake, thus becoming a true heaven for all sorts of water-related activities and fishing for walleye, bass, northern pike, and panfish. Spend your time swimming in Lake Ida, building sand castles on the beach, renting a rowboat or pontoon boat, and sitting around the campfire roasting delicious s’mores!

You’ll never be far away from delicious food and wonderful shopping opportunities since Walters Resort lies just minutes away from the “Restaurant Capital of the World,” Dorset, and the Heartland State Trail, where you can ride miles and miles of paved bike trails. Moreover, you can easily get to the popular places such as Zorbaz and Itasca State Park!
