Our employees work together to create outstanding experiences for our guests! All of our current staff are return staff from prior seasons. We are looking for an additional team member to help complete the 2026 season. If you are looking to work independently in a beautiful setting, learn about the hospitality industry, or just get away, Frenchglen Hotel is an outstanding opportunity.

Room and board is included for full time staff free of charge. Lodging is limited, so couples willing to share a room or individuals with RVs are encouraged to apply. Staff are served complimentary meals following breakfast service and family-style dinners for guests. Kitchen spaces for food preparation are also available.

We are located 60 miles South of Burns, Oregon, the nearest city with shopping, restaurants and other amenities. The town of Frenchglen has a mercantile, gas station, and coffee shop. Located at the base of Steen’s Mountain, we have great access to the region in a stunning and remote setting. The Frenchglen Hotel is across the street from Malhuer National Wildlife Refuge, along the Oregon Desert Trail, near the Alvord Desert and numerous local hot springs.

Frenchglen is perfect for nature lovers, birders, hikers, campers, stargazers, photographers, and those looking to explore Oregon.
