"Which boat should you take?" Well, we recommend catching the Lady Express boat which arrives in Stehekin in time to meet the 11:15 am Shuttle Bus. This bus gets you to the Ranch in time for lunch and afternoon activities.  Primarily we utilize the scheduled valley shuttle for your transportation in the valley so the bus at the boat landing will not say Stehekin Valley Ranch, but rather “SHUTTLE”. Stehekin Valley Ranch is situated 9 miles up the valley, so be sure not to miss the Shuttle!

If you decide to take the Lady II boat, be prepared to wait a short time, because the schedule does not match the arrival time exactly for this boat. The next bus leaves at 2 pm to coordinate with afternoon activities up valley. The Lady II comes in at 12:30 pm, giving you an hour and a half to explore the Landing area.

If you cannot catch a morning boat, the option we recommend is booking a flight with Chelan Airways. If you are arriving via floatplane with Chelan Airways (reservations: 509-682-5555) or Lake Chelan Boat Tours (charter boat reservations 509-682-8287), be sure to work with them to schedule your arrival so that it coincides with the bus schedule.
