Job Description:

We are hiring a reliable and adventurous cleaner on a part-time basis — someone who enjoys working outside with their hands, has experience cleaning homes/Airbnbs, attention to detail, and doesn’t mind laundry. You will be helping us take care of our off-grid glamping resort on 60 acres of beautiful mountain land near the Blue Ridge Parkway (between Marion and Spruce Pine). The 60-acre property has two 30-foot waterfalls, over ½ mile of well-established road, an old cabin, two gushing natural springs, big mountain views, and hiking trails. The Blue Ridge Parkway property is our first acquisition with 2 more extraordinary properties in the pipeline.

You will succeed if you enjoy working outside with your hands and being active, have experience cleaning homes/Airbnbs, attention to detail, and derive satisfaction from preparing spaces for others to enjoy.

You will be RESPONSIBLE for:

  • Cleaning the inside of the yurts/domes, making the beds, and organizing.
  • Keeping supplies stocked with runs to Walmart
  • Tidying up the campsites, trail, and fire pit area.
  • Washing linens — Laundry for linens & towels will be done in your own home.
 

SCHEDULE — Most cleans will take place on Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays between 11-3pm, but will vary with guest check-outs.

HOURS — To start on our first three sites, you can expect 10-15  hours a week plus payment for gas & laundry. As we continue to grow and build more sites throughout 2024, we intend for this to become a full-time cleaning manager position.

~~ Who are you? ~~

– Adventurous
– Detail-oriented, organized
– Honest and open communicator
– Not afraid to sweat
