Here is what we are looking for in a candidate:

A single pet free person is most desirable

available weekends to watch over camp, enforce 10pm quiet hours, interact with guests who may have questions, etc.

Not partying with guests, but it's ok to enjoy their company without being stoned or intoxicated.... both of which are NOT ok when representing this camp. And if this occurs, your position will be terminated and you will be asked to leave the property.
-
Quiet hour enforcement and helping guests with questions and keeping an eye on the campground is unpaid work... in exchange for free living and food and drinks supplied.

checking on campsites, cabins, and firepits as well as porta-potties to make sure that they are clean and debris / trash free after guests leave each morning.
