We invite you to join us for the summer at our charming Alaska log lodge located along the scenic Glenn Highway between Palmer and Glennallen, Alaska. Enjoy the spectacular mountain scenery and watch Dall Sheep on the hillsides behind the lodge. Nearby trails are great for hiking and mountain biking. We pay a monthly salary DOE (in accordance with Alaska State law) and supply room and board at no cost to the employee upon successful completion of their employment contract.

  Positions Available:

Home-style Baker (1)
This position requires some baking experience. Duties include scratch baking of breads, pies, cinnamon rolls, cookies, cakes, scones and muffins. This person must be able to share kitchen with cooking staff and other employees, making the job that much more fun! Other duties include taking reservations, food preparation, serving, and housekeeping. Baking experience preferred.

Prep/Breakfast Cook (1)
The prep cook position is for early risers. Preparing breakfast from our menu for lodge guests and roadside travelers will start the day. Preparation of food items, including homemade soups, will be the prep cook’s primary responsibility. The prep cook will also be responsible for: maintaining kitchen sanitation, tracking food inventories and placing weekly orders, food preparation schedules, and kitchen organization. Other responsibilities include: preparing for dinner specials, baking, kitchen cleaning and dishwashing. Cooking experience is required for this position.

Cook (1)
Our evening cook takes pride in timely preparation of our home cooked menu items. The lodge has 7 tables for our guests and roadside travelers. In addition to line cooking, our evening cook also helps prepare for group meals. The cook must be flexible due to our remote location. We have a small, well-equipped kitchen that usually requires only one cook working at a time. Food preparation responsibilities are shared with the morning cook. Our menu features traditional home cooked fare with daily dinner specials including fresh Alaska seafood. If you have kitchen experience, work well with others, can be level headed when the kitchen is busy, and don't mind kitchen cleaning, then this is the position for you.

Lodge staff responsibilities will include serving, cabin cleaning, dishwashing, trail grooming, food preparation, cooking and everything in between. Two of the lodge staff positions have the primary responsibility of serving tables in the lodge. Our 7 table dining room requires servers to greet and seat customers, take orders, set up the tables, tend bar, cashier, clean, and check-in overnight guests. We serve family style meals for special events and small tour groups in a separate banquet room. The other two lodge staff positions help where needed including, serving tables, dishwashing and cleaning of our 10 guest cabins. All lodge staff will also be expected to help with cookie baking (a coveted responsibility), assist in kitchen cleaning, bus tables, and do outside work including: lawn mowing, gardening, painting, window cleaning, snow removal and other assorted maintenance jobs, especially early and late in the summer season. Gratuities are shared equally among all staff. Must be 21 or older for this position.
