SimplyGrand dining on a dime

When visiting our SimplyGrand Forks, you’ll find a variety of top-notch lodging, dining, shopping and entertainment options at prices that won’t break the bank.

When the economy and exchange rate aren’t so great, we realize how one spends their money is more important than ever. Even though we may be a cheap date, we’re still a first-class one!

Should our community have the privilege of hosting you, either for a weeklong vacation or weekend getaway, the Greater Grand Forks Visitors Bureau will assist in any way possible to help find the best buys out there. Our website Deals page features awesome offers at a variety of local businesses. Make sure to stop in the Visitor Center (4251 Gateway Drive) and pick up our latest SimplyGrand $avings Coupon Book, which includes over 70 participants.
