Join the SouthFork Team

At SouthFork Lodge, we believe working in the wilderness is more than just a job—it’s a way of life. Tucked deep in the Boise National Forest along the banks of the Payette River, we offer a one-of-a-kind opportunity to be part of something meaningful, rooted in nature, hospitality, and community. Whether you're serving guests in our lodge, guiding adventure tours, preparing fresh meals from local ingredients, or helping maintain the quiet charm of the property, your work has a purpose.

We’re looking for passionate individuals who bring heart, hustle, and a deep respect for the outdoors. Life at SouthFork means early mornings, hard work, and wild beauty at every turn. In return, we offer a supportive team, shared pride in what we’re building, and a front-row seat to Idaho’s untamed splendor. If you're ready for a season (or more) of purpose and connection—come join us.

From sunrise coffee to riverside dinners, our food and beverage team curates the SouthFork dining experience with warmth, creativity, and genuine care. Whether crafting seasonal meals in Timbers, preparing packed lunches for adventure, or offering a welcoming smile in the café, our team brings the spirit of the lodge to the table.

We value fresh, locally inspired food and memorable guest moments—built one plate and one conversation at a time. If you love feeding people, storytelling through flavor, and working in a team that treats hospitality like an art, this is where you belong.
