Description
The inn is located in Haines Junction, Yukon, Canada. Situated on the Alaska Highway, just a couple hours from the US border and mere footsteps from the grand mountains of Kluane National Park. We are a refuge for the weary and a launching pad for the adventurous.
This business is owned by Lynn, a mother of two grown sons with a background in hospitality and a passion for local community service.
Lynn is looking for people to help with the inn keeping and experience the breathtaking scenery Kluane has to offer. She is hoping to find an outgoing, trustworthy and hard-working couple who will share the workload of running an inn (welcoming guests, preparing rooms, preparing meals, cleaning and general maintenance. (and maybe even walking her dog, Beau). More than anything, she hopes to find people with whom she can share her passion for community, service, and an appreciation of her northern home. Singles applicants will also be considered.
A few perks: Free use of all adventure gear-canoes, kayaks, bikes, camping gear!
