About The Position

A few miles away from the spectacular Rocky Mountain National Park, and in the heart of Estes Park, stands the iconic Stanley Hotel. The allegedly haunted property, built by F.O Stanley, is known for its representation in the 1980 movie, The Shining, and its recognition on the National Register of historical places. Steeped in history, and made up of several buildings, a hedge maze, restaurants and extensive grounds, The Stanley is THE place to be in Estes Park. At Sage Hospitality we dare to be different; not only in the experience we provide our guests, but also in the experiences we provide our team members. We believe in being true to ourselves and employing our passions. We are not just looking for employees; we are looking for storytellers; we are looking for experiential guides! Our guides are laid-back but attentive, genuinely enthusiastic, and creative daydreamers who want to share their passion with others and the community!
