Flathead Lake Lodge

wrangler

May - August 2018 • Bigfork, MT

What I liked

Loved every minute of it. Got to ride horses in the mountains of Montana. That is something I would do if I had all the money in the world and this summer I was paid to do it.

What I wish was different

Would not change anything.

Advice

Do not be afraid to put yourself out there, even if its going all the way across the country.

Housekeeper

May - August 2018 • Bigfork, MT

What I liked

I loved working with the people in my department. We all got along very well and helped each other out. The job was tough, but the hours were consistent and allowed me to have a lot of free time on the ranch.

What I wish was different

I wish that we had a set list of everything we had to do for that day. We were pretty much running around looking for stuff to do a lot.

Advice

Really understand what you're getting into. You live on property, eat the same food week after week, and work with the same people for the whole summer. I made some great friendships, but it can get annoying very quickly.

Front Office

May - August 2018 • Bigfork, MT

What I liked

The job helped me to gain administrative and managerial experience while seeing another part of the country.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more time to transition from school to work and then back home to school.

Advice

Be sure to show genuine hospitality at all times at this job, its one of the key things FLL prides themselves upon.
