MICHELIN Awarded Alaska Adventure Lodge Seeking to Expand Staff

Stillpoint Lodge is an all-inclusive, boutique resort lodge, perfectly suited for small group events and multi-generational families, offering a unique combination of adventure, wildlife, and wellness. We promote recreation, responsibility, and sustainability in harmony with nature and our community. Guests feel safe and inspired by our facilities, location and professional staff, and they return home revitalized and transformed.

Our staff members are open-minded professionals, energetic, creative and outgoing. We attract people who love being in Alaska and are eager to devote their entire summer to our mission.

Hospitality, safety, positivity, and sustainability are our areas of primary focus, and we stay busy. 24 hours of daylight lends itself to working hard and playing hard, and our guests are high-energy and full throttle. The realities of a short summer season mean that staff must be able to tolerate and endure 60 hours of extended seasonal work and stay energized and positive.

Although each person specializes in a specific position, at times all are asked to help with housekeeping, gardening, groundskeeping, hauling supplies, cleaning, kitchen duties, and dishwashing. To enhance our spirit of camaraderie, gratuities are pooled and divided among the staff.

Step out the door of your staff cabin into wild Alaska. Every day is an adventure and conservation is essential to our success. Sharing this gift with our guests is our greatest goal. Previous experience working in Alaska and familiarity with hospitality services is a definite plus.

You will do well here if:

• You are healthy, fit, active, and non-smoking

• Providing exceptional service is a priority for you

• You are flexible, have multiple talents and enjoy working as a team

• Environmental conservation is important to you

• You have a positive experience working and living communally

• Working long hours does not intimidate you

• You do not have any other plans for the summer and can commit 100%

• Serving demanding, high-end guests is fun and satisfying for you

• You are devoted to being a life-long learner and take feedback gracefully

Staff live in shared accommodations. There are a few private bedrooms (mostly for returning staff) and some shared bedrooms all adjacent to shared bathrooms. A central building contains the staff lounge and kitchen above a large deck and dock right on the ocean overlooking the mountains. All groceries are delivered by boat and floatplane Staff members prepare and typically share meals in the staff kitchen. Lodge meals are sometimes available for certain staff positions. Staff must purchase their own alcohol.

In addition to providing excellent service to our guests, staffers may take advantage of a wide range of benefits, including:

Stillpoint in Halibut Cove is located across Kachemak Bay from Homer, Alaska. Homer is literally at the end of the road south of Anchorage on the Kenai Peninsula. Staff members have access to boat transportation on the ferry and our personal lodge boats. Staff members get around Halibut Cove by walking and kayaking.  Each staff member is given thorough training on kayak safety and mechanics.

Halibut Cove has no roads and is surrounded by water. The closest town is Homer, a boat ride away. Those who enjoy working hard, recharging in nature, reading, photography and outdoor enthusiasts who love to hike and kayak will be delighted by this setting of great natural beauty, especially during the very long daylight hours of our Alaskan summers.
