Work Camper Couple – Maintenance / Registration
Office
Job Description
Couples who will work the registration desk and do outdoor duties and maintenance. You will work 24-26 hours per week per person (4 days on, 3 days off). Compensation includes salary of $700/month/person, full hook-up site plus laundry allowance, propane at our cost, and a 25% discount on store items. We also provide cable TV and high-speed wireless internet access. Couples will work their shifts together. Please note that this is not a management position.
We need team players. Our campground caters to the tourist market, so customer turnover is high. Being able to deal with all types of people in a pleasant manner, and familiarity with area attractions is essential. Experience handling money, working a cash register, using a personal computer – especially reservation software, is helpful when working the registration desk.
Regarding the outdoor portion of the position, we are always adding improvements or doing maintenance to our facility, so some handyman skills are helpful. The everyday outdoor routine includes checking sites for late arrivals and timely checkout, maintaining the pool (summer months), emptying trash cans, stocking the store with ice and firewood, cleaning, ensuring campsites and firepits are tidy, and running the evening movie. As needed and time permitting, other tasks include basic electrical and plumbing repairs, landscaping, painting, repairing picnic tables, and running drip irrigation systems.

Finally, it’s important our employees come with realistic expectations. You must be in good health, since we live at 7200 feet above sea level. People with heart ailments or asthma might have trouble adjusting to the climate. We get busy and stay busy from May through mid-October, so don’t anticipate a lot of idle time during your shift.
The most successful workampers are the ones who enjoy interacting with the wide variety of people who visit our campground. Because you are living on-site for an extended period, you become a close-knit community with your fellow workampers. These positions are for team players who like to be busy during their shift.
