Work in Yellowstone’s Hidden Gem — Yellowstone Park/Mountainside KOA Journey
Join the team at Yellowstone Park / Mountainside KOA Journey, a KOA World Class Service Award winner, and be part of a crew guests call “exceptional” and describe the campground as “a hidden gem” that’s “always very clean, quiet and the staff are awesome.”
-
You’ll be proud of the place where you work. We earned a World Class Service Award, and guests back it up: a 4.7-star average across 350 reviews this past year, with nearly four out of five guests giving us a perfect 5 stars. Guests call us “one of the best KOAs” and “the best one we have ever stayed at.”
-
Yellowstone is in your backyard. We’re about 7 miles from the park’s West Entrance, tucked into the mountains along a creek. Finish a shift with a walk on our trails, or spend your day off chasing geysers, bison and bears.
-
A more relaxed pace. Unlike our larger sister property up the road, we have 141 sites, which gives us the time to get to know our guests and make each one feel appreciated. You’ll still build real hospitality skills, from front desk check-ins to cabin care to grounds and maintenance, just without the rush.
-
A team that goes the extra mile. Our guests name staff in their reviews, thanking them for propane tank runs, quick repairs, rearranging sites so a group could camp together, and tips on where to spot bears in Yellowstone. One guest summed it up: “Sam and his crew are top notch.”
