Imagine trading your commute for a lakeside view. Salt Creek Resort & RV is looking for a caretaker couple to live on-site and help run our small, family-owned cabin and RV campground for the 2027 season.

Who we're looking for: A reliable, hands-on couple who works well as a team, communicates clearly with guests, and enjoys a quieter, rural setting.

Where: Salt Creek Resort & RV, on the Sacramento arm of Shasta Lake, Lakehead, CA.

When: Season runs May through mid-September 2027.

Room & board: On-site housing included for the season, in addition to compensation.

Why join us: You'll spend your summer on one of Northern California's most beautiful lakes, working alongside a small, close-knit team, with fishing, boating, and swimming right outside your door.
