Great Northern Casino does not publish a shuttle, a taxi stand or the nearest bus stop. It publishes no parking details either. Grande Prairie Transit runs a late-night on-demand service from any transit stop to any other stop. Hours are Monday to Saturday 9 to 11 pm and Sunday 6 to 8 pm.

The last booking is 30 minutes before service ends, and the regular fare applies. Since the casino names no nearby stop, riders choose the stops at each end themselves. The casino's own holiday hours are not published; Guest Services at 780-539-4454, ext. 0, can confirm them.

Great Northern Casino has no hotel rooms of its own. Service Plus Inns & Suites, a separate hotel, is right next door at 10810 107 Avenue, phone 780-538-3900.
