Because of the on-call nature of the job, our full-time year-round staff live on the property (or very close to it). Core Team Members are provided lodging on site. At time of writing a 400 sq. ft. 4-season camper is available with a complete kitchen and bathroom (new house construction is in process). We also provide meals for you and your family whenever we are serving campers and guests. The base salary is $35,000 – $45,000 and is negotiable higher based on experience (or lower, if desired experience levels are not available). The benefits package starts at 3 weeks vacation per year, plus 5 personal or sick days per year. Off season schedules are flexible. The package also includes health insurance at this time, at no cost to the employee. The camp also matches 3% of your salary to a SIMPLE IRA plan or helps with student loan repayment. There are other minor benefits including half the health insurance deductible credited to your HSA each year and a clothing reimbursement.
