The implication I got was that they weren't exactly in the area. Either way, the Nucklavee lived in the mountains (which apparently border Mistral itself) rather than the town, so even if the patrol ships were actively avoiding the Grimm's terretory (which would rather defeat the purpose to having patrol ships) they'd have no good reason to be avoiding the town proper.

The only thing I find kinda wierd about it was that nobody saw the Patrol ships until they were coming into land already. Based on the sight lines and so forth I'd have expected them to have been spotted earlier when they were a long way off. Of course, the team were kinda busy with the eldrich horror before hand, so they could be distracted. And out of universe animating in the patrol ships long before they get there would be a somewhat clunky thing to do for the sake or realism, and RWBY as a whole is already kinda stylized like that.
