Resort Couple for new Cabin/Lodge retreat opening Spring 2024 - South Bruce Peninsula, ON

Lavender Lake is a beautiful resort retreat consisting of 34 full-service cottages and a lodge with 15 full-service suites. Also on-site is a leased restaurant/bar, games room, tennis courts, mini golf, and spa. Situated directly on the shores of Lake Huron, with a marina (3rd party operated), and close to hiking trails and the famous grotto on the Bruce Peninsula. Your home will be a well-appointed home on the property. Hiking, canoeing, fishing, boating, and in the winter, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing are right outside your door.

Our Resort Couple job (couple = any two people who will share the house and fill the jobs) will be integral in the opening of this new resort. A chance to contribute your personal touches! Both people in the couple will need to learn every job on the resort, but usually, one person does more outside grounds-keeping tasks and maintenance, and the other excels at guest services and housekeeping. There are 7-9 other employees, mainly housekeepers and grounds crew, but we expect the Resort Couple to be a model for employee excellence for everyone and to demonstrate leadership and a positive attitude.  

Full-time, all-year employment, or long-seasonal options (prefer all-year). Benefits for employees who become permanent, year-round. We're looking for responsible, independent, self-starters with integrity, good guest interaction skills, a healthy lifestyle, and a good work ethic. Non-smoking housing provided, drug-free. This is for people who live healthily. In return, you get the opportunity to live in a lakeside house on the edge of Lake Huron, a living situation that's hard to come by. We pay competitive, living wages, give regular performance-based raises, flexibility with work schedules, and compensation for working additional hours.

All jobs at Lavender Lake are physically active. There is often a great deal of moving and lifting, so applicants need to enjoy a good workout as part of their daily job. This couple's role requires both persons to have a valid driver's license and reliable transportation. Personal pets can be considered by interview. They have to pass strict criteria, just like an employee! 

As we move further into the construction phase of the Lodge, we will require a couple who enjoy rolling their sleeves up and jumping in where needed, to help keep the resort running smoothly and cleanly; a great front guest service person who is the show-runner for the entire resort on a busy day; and an extremely detailed-oriented cleaner with a critical eye for spotting imperfections. The other role will be integral to our grounds and maintenance tasks taking on the development of a schedule for the upkeep of the property and input into some outdoor design aspects.
