About the Job
Mill Creek Resort is a small, family-owned mountain resort near Lassen Volcanic National Park, welcoming guests who come to stay in our cabins, campground, glamping tents, and other unique accommodations.
We’re looking for reliable, hardworking, detail-oriented people to join our team for the 2027 season. This is a hands-on hospitality position that primarily focuses on housekeeping while also supporting guest services, special events, and the day-to-day needs of a small seasonal resort.
This position is a great fit for someone who enjoys physical work, being outdoors, working independently and as part of a small team, and helping create a welcoming experience for guests.
Applicants with their own RV or trailer are strongly encouraged to apply and will receive priority consideration for on-site housing, as employee housing is limited.
Team members who thrive at Mill Creek may have opportunities to return for future seasons and grow into additional responsibilities or resort leadership positions.
Key Responsibilities
Clean and prepare cabins, glamping tents, our vintage trailer, Westy van, and other guest accommodations between stays
Manage laundry, linens, towels, and housekeeping supply rotation
Restock guest accommodations and shared spaces
Maintain clean, organized, and welcoming common areas
Complete routine deep-cleaning projects throughout the season
Communicate maintenance needs, damage, missing items, or guest concerns to management
Assist with light groundskeeping, property projects, or maintenance when needed and appropriate to experience
Work collaboratively with other team members during busy turnover days
Guest Services
Because we are a small resort, our team members often help outside their primary department. Depending on scheduling and resort needs, housekeeping staff may also:
Welcome guests and assist with check-in and check-out
Provide information about resort amenities and nearby recreation
Show guests to accommodations and help orient them to the property
Respond to basic guest questions and requests
Communicate guest concerns to management
Help create a friendly, relaxed, and helpful atmosphere throughout the resort
Special Events & Seasonal Projects
Mill Creek hosts a variety of gatherings throughout the season, including wellness retreats, workshops, corporate gatherings, weddings, and other private events.
Team members may assist with event preparation and support, including:
Setting up and breaking down event spaces
Moving tables, chairs, supplies, and equipment
Preparing accommodations and common areas for groups
Assisting with general event logistics
Helping welcome vendors, facilitators, or event guests
Supporting cleanup during and after events
Seasonal property projects may also include raking, watering, wood splitting and stacking, campground cleanup, gardening, and other tasks that help keep the resort running smoothly.
Schedule & Hours
This is a seasonal hospitality position, and schedules change throughout the season based on occupancy, guest departures, events, and property needs.
Employees can generally expect 30–40 hours per week, with hours fluctuating throughout the season. During slower periods, schedules may be closer to 30 hours, while 40-hour weeks are less common during most of the season.
Weekend and holiday availability is required. Our busiest days are often the days when other people are traveling or enjoying time off.
Days off may vary from week to week. Two consecutive days off are not guaranteed and are uncommon during much of the peak season. We work to create fair schedules and provide time off whenever possible while balancing the needs of a small seasonal property.
Start and end times may also vary depending on check-outs, arrivals, events, and occupancy. Applicants should be comfortable with a flexible seasonal schedule.
Job Details
Seasonal Commitment: April/May through September/October 2027, with some mid-season positions potentially available
Starting Compensation: $18/hour
Hours: Approximately 30–40 hours per week depending on occupancy and season

RV Applicants: Applicants bringing their own RV or trailer receive priority consideration for on-site housing; full-hookup employee RV sites may be available

Pets are not permitted in Mill Creek Resort-provided employee housing. Employees bringing and living in their own RV or trailer may have pets, subject to Mill Creek Resort’s employee pet policies and property guidelines.
Employees must have reliable transportation separate from their RV or trailer setup. Mill Creek is in a rural mountain location, and personal transportation is important for groceries, errands, recreation, and exploring the surrounding area.
Requirements

Strong attention to detail and pride in maintaining clean spaces
Comfortable with the physical demands of housekeeping and resort work
Ability to work a flexible schedule including weekends and holidays
