Take Advantage of Resort Benefits Together

On-Site Housing

A true perk is housing right on the property! You’ll never have to worry about paying for expensive gas or transportation because you’ll be a 5-minute walk away from your job location.
Meals

Get your three meals a day taken care of by our amazing culinary team. You’ll have a varying weekly menu and salad bar to choose from as well as caring chefs who will meet your dietary needs.
WiFi

Free WiFi is available throughout the property to all members and staff. Whether you’ve got online coursework or just want to facetime friends or family, you can do it from anywhere.
Resort Amenities

When you’re off, you’re off! Enjoy our Fitness Center, Sports Complex, private beach, and access to the marina where you can take kayaks, paddleboards, canoes, or go water skiing/tubing.
Professional Development

To guide you in your professional growth, you’ll apply knowledge from seminars focused on customer service, leadership, resume writing, and more.

Spend your Free Time Together in a Variety of Ways:

Local Hikes

Living in the Adirondack Mountains provides you with many different day-hike options that vary from beginner to advanced. This is perfect for getting away and enjoying authentic conversations with friends on the trials.
Water Sports

Working here allows you to enjoy the many amenities! A favorite is heading down to the Marina with friends for an afternoon activity of tubing, water-skiing, or paddleboarding.
Fitness Center

The Fitness Center is inside our Sonju Sports Comple hours and open daily for those of you who have a consistent work out routine you like to maintain.
Beach Day

Beach days look like reading on the beach, going for a swim in the lake, throwing a frisbee around, playing Spikeball, eating ice cream from the Snack Shop, and anything else you’d like to do!
Nearby Towns

Day trips to local towns (like Lake Placid) provide great photo ops, sightseeing, good restaurant food, tourist shops unique to the Adirondacks, and learning a little more about what makes this mountain region special.
Hammock Hangouts

If you ever need some peace and quiet and a good book to read, grab your hammock and set it up among the many trees on our property.

Worship nights are the perfect way to decompress while singing along or just listening. As you listen with friends, you can meditate on scripture, journal, paint, draw, or relax through any other outlet where you can sit in the presence of God with those closest to you.

Nights like these allow people to relax in a fun and upbeat way. Other events include movie nights, smash tournaments, Christmas in July Party, playing the game, “Werewolf,” having an Unbirthday Party with a pinata, and dancing (as seen in the pictures to the left).

Did someone say s’mores?

Late-night group hangs means chilling around a bonfire where laughing and memorable moments happen almost instinctively. In some cases, simple worship around the fire with a guitar is just what you need.
