We have concluded hiring for this position for the 2024 season. However, our needs often change in our volatile, high alpine location. Applications received from qualified candidates will be kept on file for such an occasion.

Please note that our camp hosts almost always have their own mobile housing. The only housing we can offer camp hosts is a completely off grid tent cabin, with very limited furniture, which is difficult to live in for an extended period of time in a high alpine, bear-conscious campground. The couple of times we have done this is when it has been absolutely necessary, and only for the peak of peak season (6 weeks around July). Because of the logistical difficulties for an employee in this situation, we do not consider this a default option for new applicants. If you do not have your own mobile housing, we strongly suggest you consider submitting a different position as your first choice.

Camp hosts are needed for multiple campgrounds. Our busy campgrounds require hosts that are welcoming, knowledgeable, capable, and reliable.

Campground Hosts live on-site in each campground. We provide the sites, but they do not have hookups for electricity. Water is available, but not sewer or a dump station. We do not provide RVs. 

Season is from when the snow melts (usually early June) to when it gets cold enough for pipes to freeze (usually early-mid October).

Campground hosts are paid for 40-hour work weeks. The job not only entails guest interaction and reservation management while also keeping the campground clean and presentable. This includes cleaning fire pits, picking up trash, painting, cleaning bathrooms, and dealing with late-night disturbances.

All campgrounds are on Recreation.gov, please check them out! You will find ours with the format: (Lake Alpine) West Shore Campground, (Lake Alpine) Silvertip Campground, etc.
