Emily’s home was perfect for our winter trip to Grand Forks to celebrate our son’s UND graduation. The house was cute, cozy and decorated for the holidays. We hope to return again soon!
Great house in a quiet neighborhood not far from stores and restaurants. Very clean and well stocked with everything you could need or want. I’ve stayed in many short-term rentals over the years and this is the nicest of them all.
We loved staying at this home !! Emily is a great host & provided everything we needed. A fully stocked Keurig coffee bar to start the morningI will definitely be booking this place in the future.
Everything about this home was perfect. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. The back porch with a fire pit was lovely. We will definitely consider this home when we return for UND graduation in the spring. Thank you Emily!

Everything about this place was great! I do not have a single bad thing about it! The rooms were very clean and nicely furnished and super comfy. The couch and entertainment worked perfect for a movie with friends, the bathrooms were very clean and stocked with any toiletry and towels. The kitchen was my favorite, fully stocked with anything you needed to cook, including spices! There was a kurig with many coffee pods and plenty of coffee creamers, it was awesome! The host was great to work with as well!
Thank you for reviewing my property, Brody. I appreciate your booking and that you thought the property was great! Would love to host you again if your work or leisure travel brings you back to the Grand Forks area!
Perfect size for the 5 adults in our party. Very clean and had everything we needed including Kureig coffee. Beds were very comfortable. Very much enjoyed our stay and we would book again.
The location was in a quiet neighborhood close to anything you would need. The house was well furnished and clean. The check in process was very easy and host was super responsive. Great stay.
This VRBO has everything you need! Very comfortable and clean with thoughtful extras. Excellent communication with owner. I would add a grate over the window well by the driveway for safety.
My spouse and three children and I loved our five-day stay at this property. The home was super clean and tidy and well equipped, with thoughtful touches and uplifting decor throughout. I loved that there are separate spaces in the upstairs and downstairs for different uses, including an office and multiple spaces to hang out. The deck sitting area is lovely as well. Our family was well accommodated and I would definitely stay here again!! Very simple check-in as well. Thank you!!
Excellent home. Clear and detailed instructions on check in from the owner made that process super simple. House was super clean, comfortable and quiet. Much appreciated central air conditioning for the “heat wave” that settled in during our stay. Well-furnished kitchen and the complimentary waters and snacks are a thoughtful touch. Carries our highest recommendation.
The home was very clean and had everything we needed. There were even treats waiting for us on arrival. Great communication and neighborhood.

About the host
Hosted by Emily Yoney
Farm girl turned nurse.
Growing up in rural ND on a farm I loved spending my spare time in the fields with my family during harvest.
I moved to Grand Forks for college to earn a degree in nursing. During that time I bought this cute little property. I also always had a love for real estate, with family owning their own real estate firm. I worked for them in the office for some time.
Fast forward to 2019 - while on a trip to Kansas right before COVID hit I met a man who turned out to be a rural farmer in North Dakota. When we made the decision to live together I took the leap and turned my property into a VRBO. While still being a full time nurse and managing this property I also find time to spend many spring and fall evenings in the field next to my forever farmer!
In the home you will see my own photography framed of different evenings in the field or reflections of my rural up brining.
Why they chose this property
I bought this home in 2010 for its central location to the hospital in which I worked at the time. It is located on a quiet dead end street housing other neighbors who have lived their for years. I love how beautiful the trees look in the fall in this area of town.
What makes this property unique
Its cozy with modern day charm/esthetics. You will find just enough room to have your own space while not crowding other guests in your group and at just the right price point!
Enjoy the fully stocked kitchen to prepare any meal of your liking. The Keurig coffee maker has a variety of flavors of coffee pods for guest to choose from along with single use flavored coffee creamers, teas, sweeteners, and disposable coffee cups for guests on the run.
Each guest will arrive with a "Welcome Treat" waiting for them on the counter along with at least 4 bottles of water in the fridge.
Each bathroom has the following for guest use: * Nexus Shampoo and Conditioner * Dove Moisturizing body wash * Neutrogena make up remover towelettes * Hand soap * Hair dryer * Towels/wash clothes * Q-Tips and cotton balls
Coming to town for a special event or occasion? Let your host know, as I have enjoyed leaving little gifts for guests celebrating something special!
I can also be very accommodating to check-in and checkout times, just reach out to me. Living 60 miles away I do like to have guests for at least 2 nights due to my drive to clean the property but I am willing to make exceptions if guests need a one night stay. Just reach out to me through a VRBO message!
