Housing & Meals
Our associates live either at, or very near, the store where they are working for the season. Depending on your needs, DNC Parks and Resorts will either provide dormitory housing or RV sites. Even though housing is onsite, some walking may be required to and from your work area.
YGS Housing
Dormitories - The dorms are rustic with centrally located shared bathrooms, showers, free laundry facilities and employee dining room. All associates will have at least one roommate. The dorms are all non-smoking and do not contain air conditioning or kitchen facilities. Guests, family members and pets are not permitted in employee housing. The housing cost is $22.89 per week.
RV Sites - For those associates planning to live in their own RV while working for Park Gate Lodges and Yellowstone General Stores, a site can be provided for a weekly fee ranging from $32.20 to $70.00, plus electric and propane costs. Most RV campgrounds have onsite coin-operated laundry facilities. RV associates arriving before May 1 may have to stay at temporary sites without utilities or hookups until their season RV site is available.
YGS Meals
Associates who work at the company's seasonal properties are provided meals in the Employee Dining Room (EDR) as a term and condition of employment. Each EDR operates on a menu cycle and provides three meals a day, seven days a week. The menu is designed to offer a variety of food choices, but due to the size of staff and facilities, we cannot generally accommodate special dietetic needs.
Dormitories - All associates living in the dormitories are required to participate in the full (3 meals per day, 7 days per week) meal plan at a rate of $59.57 per week.
RV's - Associates living in RVs also have the option to enroll in the full meal plan at a cost of $59.57 per week.
YGS Technology
Internet - Most dorms have both a computer with Internet access and a television with satellite service. Internet service is provided via satellite and is extremely limited. It is slow, unreliable and has a daily threshold of information that can be downloaded. There is a 24-hour reset period if the daily download threshold is crossed and during this time the Internet connection will not work. If you need daily access to the Internet, Yellowstone may not be the best fit for you.
Telephones - Cell phone service is intermittent or non-existent at many park locations. Verizon and AT&T tend to have the best reception in West Yellowstone, but reception is further limited in the park with no service in many locations. We recommend bringing a pre-paid calling card as there are pay telephones in each dormitory.

International Employment Information
International students with J-1 visas are an important part of our summer staff! Students interested in working for DNC Parks and Resorts at Yellowstone should contact our participating sponsor, CCUSA, for more information about visa and date eligibility requirements.
Medical
Yellowstone is a fairly isolated, wilderness location. Our stores are located at altitudes ranging from 5,000 to more than 8,000 feet and our jobs are generally strenuous and physically demanding. Although the National Park Service provides emergency services, the closest hospital can be several hours away by ambulance or helicopter. We encourage anyone with a heart or respiratory condition, or any medical issue that requires frequent treatment, to consult with his or her physician before planning to work in Yellowstone.
Medcor offers medical services to employees at three in-park clinics located at Old Faithful, Lake and Mammoth Hot Springs. In order to finance and make this service available, all employees in the park are mandated by the National Park Service to subscribe to the Seasonal Employee Health Care Program at a nominal cost of $1.07 per day. This may entitle you to a discount on office visits and other services (private insurance and Medicare are still primary). This discounted service is applicable only at the Medcor clinics within the park boundaries. Associates with persistent medical needs should bring medical records to the park with them.
Clinic
There is a health clinic in West Yellowstone which is open seven days per week during the summer season and four days per week the rest of the year. The nearest hospitals are located in Bozeman, Montana (90 miles from West Yellowstone) or Idaho Falls, Idaho (110 miles from West Yellowstone). West Yellowstone Hotel associates are not eligible to participate in the Medcor program.
