The Employee Experience
Hear what our associates are saying about being part of the Grand Teton Lodge Company team....
"Living and working at Jackson Lake Lodge was brimming with joy, challenges and unforgettable friendships. Simply waking up every day in Grand Teton was a gift, and the 4 minute walk to work was great! Days off at GTLC were the best! The beauty of WY is even better hiking with friends from all over the world. I now have friends in Ireland, Poland, Russia, China and Ukraine." Sarah, Florida, Jackson Lake Lodge
"If you are a college student seeking adventure, I definitely recommend working for GTLC this summer! Every day was a bucket list day in Grand Teton National Park while I worked there. How many college kids say they got to go cliff jumping after work?!" Charlotte, Louisiana, Colter Bay Marina
"Living and working in Grand Teton National Park has elevated my life and is truly an experience unlike any other. Some of my most incredible friendships and fondest memories were formed during my time spent there. Some of my favorites were kayaking in lakes at the base of the dramatic mountains, hiking the most stellar trails I’ve ever been on, backpacking with incredible people and star gazing with tremendous views of the Milky Way. Living in the park is an inspiring journey that has made me more mindful, appreciative and passionate about life." Stephanie, Connecticut, Flagg Ranch
