WHY DO WE SHOW EXPIRED LISTINGS?
Our Camp Hosts experience living in West Virginia’s most beautiful and historic area, Summersville Lake and the Gauley River National Recreation Area and become ambassadors to our region. Our Host’s can be individuals or teams such as a husband and wife. The schedules of our hosts allow them ample time to enjoy recreational activities with friends and family members. Hosts will have the opportunity to meet people from all walks of life and perhaps develop new friendships.
One of the most important benefits Host’s receive is a sense of satisfaction that comes in knowing you have helped make the camping experience more enjoyable for other campers. They perform a variety of tasks such as greeting customers, handing out information, replacing restroom supplies, cleaning campsites, picking up litter and informing the manager about potential problems. Hosts will serve as official greeters and must like people, be courteous, outgoing and helpful to all of our guests. Hosts also need to be physically capable of performing these duties. Campground Hosts are also expected to be observant for situations within the campground that require immediate attention by staff and/or outside emergency assistance.
Hosts provide their own lodging and are provided a free campsite with utility hookups and WIFI. This also provides a friendly presence in our campground. The Manager will approve specific duty hours and assignments not to exceed 25 hours per week. Wages for hours worked over the 25 initial hours for the site. We ask for at least a commitment from April 1 – October 31.
Hosts need to become familiar with local points of interest and the location where local services can be obtained; e.g., fuel, LP, bait, groceries. Hosts will perform light maintenance work around the campground such as litter pick-up, sweeping and stocking supplies at the showerhouse, making emergency minor repairs when possible and various other duties. Hosts will take no law enforcement measure other than being observant and advising users of unintentional infractions. Flagrant violators will be reported to the manager who is responsible for the campground. Hosts may be asked to serve as a witness for flagrant violators that have been observed. Hosts will set an example by being model campers, practicing good housekeeping at all times, in and around the host site, and by observing all rules and regulations.
