Flights
and Airports
Most of our guests travel to Nelson by flying into Spokane, WA, and taking our shuttle or renting a car at the airport. Guests arriving in Castlegar, BC can arrange for taxi or car service from the airport. Additionally, we may be able to help you arrange for other private transportation from either airport to Nelson.
Is a rental car necessary?
For guests who want to explore Rossland and Red Mountain Ski Resort or visit Ainsworth Hot Springs, a rental car will be essential. Otherwise, Nelson is very centralized with shopping, hotels, and restaurants all within easy walking distance. Whitewater Ski Area has a shuttle that leaves Nelson every morning and returns in the afternoon. If you plan to stay in Nelson on the days you aren't snowcat skiing, you will not need to have a car.
