Hi Elaine, the Fairfield Hotel and St Olaf College are about 1.5 miles from each other. We are currently working on what transportation options we have to offer our attendees for shuttle service between those two locations. If you are flying into Minneapolis, the airport to Northfield is about a 45-60 minute drive. In the past Northfield Lines had some bus shuttle options, but the dates/times were limited. I hope this information helps.
