Seasonal Positions for Spring/Summer/Fall of 2026
We are taking applications for our peak season (mostly May – Sept) in 2026. We have RV sites available for “Workampers” and on site shared housing in our mobile home park for those who may need housing. We charge employees rent far below the average market rate. Typically, we prioritize RV or employee mobile home housing for those who can work full time, stay the season and help us fill jobs that we need to be filled – usually restaurant cooks/kitchen and housekeepers take priority over all other jobs for housing eligibility. Housekeeping jobs have the longest season available (late Apr. – October 31st) and start at the highest hourly wage range. All employees enjoy retail and restaurant discounts plus unlimited free rafting and gear rentals.
Restaurant Manager – We have a lucrative position available for an experienced Restaurant Manager in our fast-paced, seasonal BBQ restaurant on the resort property. Three Rivers Smokehouse serves resort guests, our rafting/fishing clientele, over 100 resort employees, plus local residents and visitors alike. We offer breakfast, coffee bar, lunch and dinner every day of the week from May 21 through October 4. The position will begin May 1 and can be wrapped up by October 8. The restaurant manager will lead a team of over 30 employees including line cooks, prep cooks, pitmasters, dishwashers, baristas, servers and bartenders. The restaurant manager must be extremely organized, detailed and have experience managing a diverse group of staff in a busy environment. Experience ordering and managing food inventory and business costs is a must. Ideally the candidate will have experience with preparing and smoking meats and can be ready to step into any position as needed. The manager will operate the restaurant with an ownership mindset and work directly with resort owners/ managers on menu creation, pricing, employee management, vendors, equipment maintenance, food handling, liquor licenses and programming the point of sale computer system. This is a great opportunity for the right candidate to return to and grow each summer. We offer resort discounts, free rafting and gear rentals and the best Colorado mountain location all in a family owned/operated environment. RV site or on site housing included.
Kitchen Lead – This position will be responsible for supervising back of the house food operations including prep, inventory, line cooking and quality control of all food coming off the line. Line cooking, kitchen management and supervisory experience is required. Housing or RV site available with full time commitment. Starting pay is $18-$20/hour plus pooled tips. Complete online application below or email resume to: [email protected].
Line Cooks – Cooks will work on the line in various positions, including handling a deep fryer, grilling burgers, sandwiches and assembling smoked meat platters, making salads to order or even working as “point” to ensure the quality of everything coming off the line and calling out to the servers. Must be available for day shifts and evening to close shifts. Housing or RV site available with full time commitment. $15.50 / hour plus pooled tips (averaging $20-$24/hr. based on past seasons). Complete online application below or email resume to: [email protected].
Dishwashers – Dive into the dish pit! Sure, it’s a messy job but you’re also working independently, maybe listening to your music and just getting the job done. Everyone appreciates you and you’re always busy so time flies. $15.50 / hour plus pooled tips (averaging $20-$24/hr. based on past seasons).
Housekeepers – Help us fill one of the most important and valued positions at the resort! We consistently receive great reviews and compliments on how clean our lodging is. Housekeepers work on average 30 hrs/week over 5 days per week with two days off in a row. However, during the peak times of mid-June through mid-August, hours can go up to 40 per week depending on lodging business. Housekeepers can have the longest season of any job – start late April and go all the way through October. However, we will consider applicants who can work most of that timeframe. Start $17-$20 / hour.
Servers/Bartenders – Experienced servers and bartenders are welcome to apply. Three Rivers Smokehouse is a busy seasonal outdoor patio restaurant that operates from late May through the first weekend in October. We are seeking applicants who can ideally work through the entire season but we will consider some slight variations in schedule availability. Experience with high volume restaurants/bars is a plus. We currently use the Toast POS system. $15.50 / hour plus pooled tips (averaging $20-$24/hr. based on past seasons).
