Hospitality Specialist at Castle Farms

Ever wanted to work inside a real castle? Castle Farms in Charlevoix, Michigan is one of the USA's most breathtaking wedding and event venues — originally built in 1918 — and they're looking for an energetic Hospitality Specialist to join their summer team. From setting up elegant wedding receptions to supporting the bar team during live concerts and private parties, every day brings something new.

As a Hospitality Specialist, you'll rotate across three core roles: Event Closer (ensuring the venue is spotless and secured after events), Housekeeping & Setup (transforming spaces into picture-perfect event settings), and Bar Back Support (keeping the bar running smoothly during high-volume service).

The location is unbeatable — just 2 miles from Lake Michigan's sandy beaches, surrounded by charming downtown shops, farmers markets, festivals, and great dining. The summer climate is gorgeous, with temperatures averaging 75–85°F.
