What are private RV park and resort workamping jobs? Private RV park jobs are paid or site-trade positions at KOA campgrounds, independent parks, and RV resorts. Roles include camp host, front desk, reservations, maintenance, and activities staff — compensation, sites, and hookups vary by listing.
Private RV parks, KOA campgrounds, and independent RV resorts operate on a completely different model from state and national parks — and pay, host-site amenities, and roles vary widely by employer, from traditional camp hosting to front desk, maintenance, and activities. Private employers set their own rates, pick their own seasons, and some offer perks such as Wi-Fi, pool access, or laundry facilities at the employee campsite.
KOA (Kampgrounds of America) is the largest private campground network in North America, with over 500 locations across the United States and Canada. Some KOA camp hosts and seasonal employees receive a site, hookups, or an hourly wage — each franchise is independently owned and sets its own terms — and some welcome couples who can each take on different roles within the campground.
Independent resorts and private RV parks round out the private employer category. These range from small mom-and-pop operations with 30 sites to luxury destination resorts with hundreds of sites, swimming pools, golf courses, and activity programs. Destination resorts may offer a wider variety of job roles; pay varies by employer.
