About the employer
ExplorUS Crater Lake is a hospitality operation at Crater Lake, Oregon, offering positions such as dishwasher, busser, prep cook, host, retail associate, housekeeping crew, porter and dorm custodian. Housing is guaranteed by the employer and all participants are required to live in it. The nearest major city, Medford, is over 50 miles away and a second job here is unlikely, so this is a good fit if you prefer a quiet natural setting over city life.

Why Crater Lake, Oregon?
Crater Lake National Park is Oregon’s only national park and one of the most photographed places in the Pacific Northwest. On your days off you can hike the Garfield Peak Trail, cycle the 33-mile Rim Drive, swim at Cleetwood Cove, watch the clearest night sky you have ever seen, or take a weekend trip to Bend, Portland or the Oregon Coast. Wildlife sightings – deer, eagles, marmots – are part of everyday life here.
