About Nelsons Resort
Nelson's is the kind of resort that people return to year after year.
Many of our guests have been coming for generations, families that have been coming for 30, 40, 50 + years started out bringing their kids, then grandkids, then great-grandkids ... it's their special place, together, in the peacefulness and beauty of the north woods, the elders believing if the children do not experience this beauty, they will never know it exists.
Our guests, as you already understand return year after year, but also many of the employees return as well, as working alongside us at Nelson's is like being part of the family. Our crew members become lifelong friends with the other employees but also to us. Nelson's consists of 22 lakeside cabins, full dining room, lounge, bar, marina and store, so there are many different employment opportunities that may suit you. Come join our team, when you send in an application please also email me so I can be looking for it. Thank you.
The Employee Experience
If you choose to come work with us at Nelson's, you will receive a very special sense of purpose, working with our guests to ensure they have a wonderful stay, they will know your name, as well as you will know theirs by the end of the stay.
When your shift is over, you will get together with other employees and enjoy boating, fishing, swimming, hiking, berry picking, canoeing, walking, playing disc golf, cards or games.
