Camp Host Couple

Sullivan’s Camp Cacapon is located in Morgan County, West Virginia, 20 minutes from downtown Berkeley Springs.  We are a very small, family owned, campground with just 8 primitive tent sites, 2 glamping tents, 2 glamping cottages, and 1 RV site (technically 2).  We also have a boondocking lot, pavilion and 2 bathrooms.  This is our family retreat, turned campground.  We opened for campground guests in 2021 and have a very low occupancy rate.  Our campground is located directly on the Cacapon River which is well known for its crystal-clear slow-moving waters.  Perfect for kayaking, tubing and fishing.

Our campground is “self-managed”, whereby our guests receive a confirmation email after making an online reservation.  This email contains all of the information they need to find our property, access the locked gates, where to unload their gear, where to park, how to clean up, etc.  Camp hosts greet customers upon arrival, but there is no “check-in” process.  The RV and tent guests are responsible for cleaning their sites, to include moving the campfire ash to the main bonfire pit before departure.

We are seeking a couple to serve as Campground Hosts.  Hosts are volunteers who live in the campground full-time and assist with the day-to-day operations of the campground. They are responsible for onsite management of campground, landscaping/mowing, cleaning the cottages & bathrooms, light maintenance, providing a site presence and representing Camp Cacapon.  This is a volunteer position for 20 hours weekly.  Camp Hosts are to be present 7 nights per week in exchange for an RV site with full hook ups (water, electricity and sewer) and WiFi.  There are DEFINITELY exceptions to this, as we are VERY LOW occupancy and short 2-4 day trips are fine.
