Workamping Jobs in New Jersey

What are workamping jobs in New Jersey? Workamping jobs in New Jersey include camp host positions at state parks and national forests, volunteer host roles at BLM and Army Corps of Engineers sites, and paid seasonal positions at private RV parks and campgrounds. There are currently 3 open positions in New Jersey.

New Jersey's workamping season runs strong along the Jersey Shore and through the vast pine forests of the interior. Camp host and RV jobs cluster around Cape May and the southern beaches, the Wharton State Forest and Pine Barrens, and the lakes and ridges of the northwest near the Delaware Water Gap. Employers are largely state parks and family-owned campgrounds that hire from spring through fall, peaking in summer when shore vacationers pack the sites. Most positions trade gatehouse, store, or grounds hours for a campsite, often with hourly pay during the busy stretch. With short drives between beach, pinelands, and mountains and easy access to the Northeast metros, New Jersey suits workampers who want a high-traffic summer gig close to the action.
