EverHaven Careers
Most campground jobs bury the best part: being outside, running a place people love, under everything else it takes to keep a business running. Not here. Basecamp takes the administrative work off your plate, so the part you came for stays the part you get to do.
Too many campground managers end up buried in paperwork and vendor calls instead of the job they actually signed up for. We set this one up so that doesn't happen. Here's exactly where the line falls.
Tell Us About YourselfAt most campgrounds, the person on-site ends up running the whole business too: the website, the reviews, the books, the marketing, on top of actually being there for guests. It's easy to get stuck in administrative hell. At EverHaven Resorts, Basecamp takes that administrative work off your plate, so you can spend your time on the guest experience instead. Take away everything else in the table below, and one job is left standing: a great, clean, well-run stay for every camper who comes through the gate. That's the job, and the rating is the scoreboard.
| The Work a Campground Manager Does | At a Typical Campground | At EverHaven |
|---|---|---|
| Main Job | Guest experience and administration | Guest Experience |
| Time Behind a Screen | 100% yours. You're responsible for all the administrative work, and that means real hours behind a computer, on top of the job itself. | Mostly not. Basecamp takes the administrative work off your plate. You're in one or two virtual meetings with Basecamp each week, and the rest of your time is spent back outside. |
| Guest reviews & ratings | 100% yours. You check, respond to, and flag reviews daily, and you're responsible for the overall guest experience. | The administrative work is off your plate. You're responsible for the result: the stay that earns the review. Managing the reviews themselves is coordinated by Basecamp. |
| Configure online booking software settings, market the campground, run the website | 100% yours. | Not yours. Fully coordinated by Basecamp. |
| Setting rates & prices, including researching what nearby, comparable campgrounds charge | 100% yours. You do the market research and set your own pricing. | Coordinated by Basecamp, with your input. Basecamp researches nearby campgrounds and works out pricing together with you, then makes the actual update in the software. |
| Bookkeeping | Yours to keep, on top of everything else. | Not yours. Coordinated by Basecamp. |
| Payroll | Yours. You run payroll yourself, on top of entering your team's hours. | Mostly not. Your part is making sure your team's hours are entered correctly. Payroll itself is coordinated by Basecamp. |
| Tax filings | Yours to file. | Not yours. Coordinated by Basecamp. |
| Keep the reservation system & IT running | 100% yours. You troubleshoot it, call the vendor, and get it back online yourself. | Not yours. You just report it. From there, it's coordinated by Basecamp. |
| Decide campground staffing needs | Yours to decide alone. | A shared call. You and Basecamp decide together which roles are needed. |
| Write the job posting, screen candidates, extend the offer, and handle scheduling, background checks, legal & tax forms | Yours to run, start to finish. | Not yours. Coordinated by Basecamp, though you meet the finalist yourself for a culture-fit conversation before anyone's hired. |
| Do the hands-on repairs & grounds work | Still yours, including major infrastructure work, and you manage all the vendors it takes to get it done. | Mostly yours. You or your Grounds role handle routine repairs, depending on the campground. |
You might belong here if you'd rather be outside than behind a screen, if strangers becoming regulars sounds like the good part of the job, if you don't mind being the one people count on when something needs doing right, and if you take pride in a well-kept place without needing someone to tell you it matters.
This is a fit for people who want a lifestyle, not just a shift.
Most campground jobs ask you to trade the reason you wanted this life for everything it takes to keep the business standing.
Here, that trade doesn't happen. You do the work only you can do. The rest gets carried by people whose whole job is carrying it.
There's no open role posted right now. This puts you on our list for when one is. We read every submission and reach out directly if there's a fit.
