Winter 2027 Open Roles
We’re actively recruiting now for winter positions. Winter work campers can start between October 2026 and January 2027. We target six months with our work campers and request a commitment to a minimum of 2 months.
We are looking for a large work camper team this winter to complete several projects for the campground. These include upgrading sites, some light carpentry/construction and significant landscaping projects.
We are open 365 as the South Carolina Pee Dee region typically offers mild winters with good RV camping weather.
Several work camping families will return to Standing Pines this coming winter. We are looking to grow the winter team to focus on completing new projects as well as maintain guest services.
If you’d like to lock in a winter assignment, please email to apply now. We prefer to schedule work camping dates several months in advance.
