About Under Canvas Acadia

Back at camp, we're all about creating memorable experiences for our guests while enjoying the outdoors right alongside them. And you'll be doing it with a team that loves a good adventure just as much as you do! Most of our guests can't wait to get to camp, our job is to help craft an incredible experience to match their excitement. 

The Employee Experience

Sunset and Smore's breaks will be a mandatory part of your work days here at camp. Other responsibilities include fire building, golf cart shuttling and porcupine wrangling. No two days are ever quite the same. One day, you could be welcoming a family visiting their first national park; the next, helping a couple get to their wedding reception in our Zen Garden; and the day after that, recommending your favorite hike to a National Geographic writer. Life at Under Canvas Acadia keeps you on your toes, brings you into contact with incredible people, and gives you plenty of stories to tell.

When you’re off the clock, the adventures continue! Our team loves exploring Maine, whether that means group camping trips, weekend hikes or brunch outings. 

Throughout the season, we also organize staff appreciation events and volunteer opportunities to give back to the local community. 

We believe the people you work with are a big part of what makes a season special, and we make plenty of time to build friendships, share experiences, and enjoy our time here together.

Getting Here and Getting Around

While having a car is recommended, we can occasionally accommodate employees who do not have their own transportation using the company van.

For Fun

Life in Maine has a way of making every day feel like an adventure. One day, you might be hiking a mountain in Acadia, and the next, you’re spending a lazy afternoon by a lake, wandering through Bar Harbor’s shops, or grabbing a coffee at a cozy café in one of the nearby coastal towns. There are endless places to explore, camp and stay, whether you’re chasing your next outdoor adventure or just looking for a cute spot to spend the afternoon. And the sunrises and sunsets? Absolutely worth setting your alarm for!
