About the employer
Kampgrounds of America Cape Hatteras Outer Banks is a beachfront campground resort in Rodanthe, North Carolina, sitting between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pamlico Sound. It has a pool, hot tub, poolside cafe and an internet lounge with free Wi-Fi, plus a summer roster of pool games, tie-dying and family movie nights under the stars.
Working here means a season on the island, with miles of beach straight from the campground and local kite boarding, paddle boarding, kayaking, shops and restaurants nearby. Cape Hatteras is laid back and remote, so it suits you if you love the beach and the outdoors rather than big-city life.
