Front Desk Team Member – Live & Work in the Rocky Mountains!

Spend your season (or year!) in beautiful Estes Park, Colorado!

Hochstetler Resorts is hiring a Front Desk Team Member to join our close-knit hospitality family in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Think elk wandering by, mountain views out your office window, and a team that actually enjoys working together.

We’re a family-owned company that has operated boutique hotels in Estes Park since 1998. Our properties include:

  • The Silver Moon Inn (riverside + downtown walkable)

  • The Appenzell Inn (Swiss-inspired charm)

  • The Estes Mountain Inn

  • Hotel Estes

We promote from within and love developing long-term team members. Ideally, we’re looking for someone year-round — but we’re also hiring a seasonal team member who can commit through at least mid-October.

Employee-only housing is available
(Please note: housing is for employees only and does not allow pets.)


What It’s Like to Work Here

This is not a corporate hotel job. You’ll be part of a small, supportive team where everyone jumps in, helps each other, and takes pride in creating memorable guest experiences.

Your days may include:

  • Greeting guests with genuine Rocky Mountain hospitality

  • Checking guests in/out and processing reservations

  • Sharing local tips on hiking, wildlife, restaurants, and adventures

  • Balancing reports and handling transactions

  • Helping set up and refresh continental breakfast

  • Responding to guest emails and review platforms

  • Working closely with housekeeping & maintenance teams

  • Delivering the occasional pack-n-play or extra towels

  • Keeping the lobby welcoming and organized

You’ll learn our property systems and may even gain exposure to IT systems, pool operations, or basic maintenance tasks.


 We’re Looking For Someone Who:

  • Is self-motivated and positive

  • Loves working with people

  • Has strong communication skills

  • Can work evenings, weekends, and holidays

  • Is comfortable using computers and learning new systems

  • Can handle guest concerns calmly and professionally

  • Has good basic math skills

  • Brings a team-first mindset

Previous front desk experience is a plus — but not required. We will train you.


Why People Love Working Here

  • Small, family-owned company

  • Opportunity for growth and promotion

  • Close team environment

  • Mountain lifestyle

  • Employee housing available

  • Work where others vacation

If you’re looking for a fun, fast-paced hospitality job in one of the most beautiful places in Colorado, we’d love to meet you.

Come spend your season (or year!) in the Rockies with us.
