Alterations to any Employee Housing Unit and/or the semi-permanent installation of employee/resident’s personal property are prohibited. This includes nailing fixtures to walls, floors, ceilings, or furniture; disassembly of furniture such as lofts, bed frames, or cabinet/closet doors; or drilling holes; or affixing decals. Possession of company property or furniture not assigned to the housing unit is prohibited. Any damage caused by decorating efforts makes rooms less desirable to the next employee/resident. The employees/residents responsible for such damage will be charged for repairs.

Damages or cleaning fees of common areas or Employee Housing Unit are divided equally between all employees/residents of affected unit or area. If an individual employee/resident is proven to be the sole person responsible for damage, he/she will be held completely accountable for damages and/or fines.

Check-in / Check-out Procedures

Employees may arrive to housing on the day of their scheduled check-in/first day of work. NO EARLIER!

When it’s time for you to leave, be sure to coordinate with your local housing management to properly check out. Failure to properly check out (facilitate room inspection, return keys and all company property, take responsibility for damages, and/or pay due balances, etc.) will result in future ineligibility to live in company housing at any Vail Resorts property. Failure to check-out can also result in room & board overcharges on your final paycheck. Make sure your StarRez account is in good standings before you leave! 

Employees completing their seasonal work commitments are expected to vacate housing the day after their last day of work. Employees who are terminated must vacate housing the same day. Terminated employees are not permitted in employee areas, even as a guest of someone who is currently employed. Specific details can be discussed with human resouces.

If you decide to leave your job voluntarily before your scheduled end date, these same rules will apply. If you must leave early then a written resignation to your manager and two weeks notice are required to maintain future employment eligibility with the company.

Conduct

Employee Housing has a demand for compliance policy for behavior in Grand Teton Lodge Company employee housing locations. The demand for compliance policy aims to encourage good behavior, resulting in a healthy and comfortable place to live.  We want to build a stable, peaceful community. Housing management and human resources can issue a notice to vacate for employees living in housing based on their behavior that breaches their license agreement. Any violation could result in loss of employee housing. 

All employees/residents are required to conduct themselves in a manner that is conducive for fellow employees/residents to live and sleep. All residents are to demonstrate reasonable efforts to resolve roommate problems.  Employees/residents are expected to report uncivil treatment of others, vandalism, and other violations of their license to housing management, human resources or security.

Employee residence areas are patrolled by the National Park Service law enforcement. Noise complaints, under-age drinking, wildlife attractants, and other disturbances/law violations will likely result in a citation and or fine. Drug and alcohol violations are particularly enforced - use or possession of marijuana (and other controlled substances, including paraphernalia) is strictly prohibited. All citations and offenses are reported to human resources, and may affect your employment.

To live in employee RV parks, vehicles must be:

• Self-contained - Meaning the RV is capable of supplying all necessary living accommodations including water, heat, sleeping, cooking and waste disposal. 

• Hard-sided - Pop ups, tents, or other soft-sided vehicles are not allowed.  

As a resident of the RV park an optional meal plan of $98/week per person grants access to employee cafeteria. Individual meal vouchers can be purchased from the Vault at Jackson Lake Lodge (across from the Human Resources office). Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis Club does not offer the meal plan.

Pets

One of the great things about living in the Employee RV Park is that you may have up to two pets per RV site. Pets cannot be left unattended at any time. This includes being tied to a stationary object, even if you are just stepping away for a little bit. If your pet is outside of your secured RV or personal vehicle, it must be attached to a person using a six foot or shorter leash. Leaving your pet unattended may result in a fine - or even worse - make them easy prey for predatory wildlife. 

Do not leave pet food outside unattended for any period of time, as it is a wildlife attractant.

Pet waste must be immediately removed and disposed of in a designated waste receptacle. 

Temporary fences are allowed. Fenced areas must be shorter than the length of your RV and no more than 6ft wide. Fences cannot be attached to trees or other natural elements of the terrain and should be placed on gravel or pavement areas if possible. 

**Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis club RV park does not allow pets due to Teton County regulations. 

Visitors

Guests are permitted in your private vehicles for up to seven consecutive or non-consecutive days. Any guest staying in the Employee RV Park for more than seven consecutive or non-consecutive days must have received prior approval from the director of Human Resources. 

Guests must abide by the rules and regulations you are held to as an employee of the company and are subject to all National Park Service laws and regulations. 

Fires and Cooking

 If your site contains an established fire pit or ring, make sure that fires are fully extinguished if the area will be unattended. Unattended fires will be reported, and the site resident will receive a citation. 

RV residents at all locations must pay particular attention to avoiding wildlife attractants if cooking outdoors.

**Jackson Hole Golf & Tennis Club RV Park does not allow fires at their sites.

Colter Bay Facilities

Three comfort stations with restrooms, showers, laundry, and ice are located throughout the Colter Bay Employee RV Park. Residents will receive a key to access them from the Colter Bay Housing Office. Pets are not allowed in the comfort stations.

Free filtered water is available from a faucet at the Colter Bay Convenience Store, located to the left of the main entrance.

Propane can be purchased at the Colter Bay Guest RV Park office during regular operating dates and hours.

Limited Wi-Fi is available in housing areas. During peak usage times, speeds may be slower than what you are used to, so don’t plan to depend on the internet for entertainment. 

If you have issues with the Wi-Fi call the IT support center at 970-754-4357. Keep track of your case number so that the local IT can further assist and look for a resolution.

Wildlife sightings of bears, moose, bison, or foxes in employee or guest areas should be reported to NPS dispatch directly by calling (307) 739-3301. 

Wildlife attractants in employee areas should be reported to local housing management. If after hours, contact security through the hotel operator at (307) 543-2811. 

As a resident in a national park, you are personally responsible for making sure that wild animals won’t be exposed to attractants associated with humans. 

DO NOT leave backpacks, coolers, or anything with an odor unattended for ANY length of time. Your food should always be within arm’s reach or properly stored. Allowing wildlife to obtain human food, even once, can result in altered, aggressive and dangerous behavior. Animals then become a threat to human safety and must be relocated or killed. 

Failure to properly store wildlife attractants may result in citations or fines from the National Park Service as well as disciplinary action up to and including termination. Never leave these items outside of your dorm or RV.

Trash and Recycling
All trash and recycling must be placed in a designated receptacle.  If it’s not within your reach, it needs to be inside. Even water bottles should be secured. 

Stoves & Grills
They smell delicious to animals, so grills and other cooking tools need to be kept inside if someone’s not right there with it. 

Coolers
Even when empty, coolers can hold on to smells animals may want to investigate. All coolers must be kept inside or attended to at all times if outside, even if you consider yourself an impeccable cooler-cleaner.  

Gardens and Plants
Non-native plants may attract or affect wildlife. No plantings or gardens are permitted outside of employee housing units. 

Unattended Personal Property
An unattended backpack with sunscreen, bug repellent, or any other item with a scent may attract wildlife. All personal items should be secured indoors.
