Working at any campground in Leelanau, you meet people from near and far, and a lot of the satisfaction you get from the job is in the special memories you help families make year after year.
Lake Leelanau RV Park Manager Jennifer Rhodes has been working at the campground office since 2007 and said that’s a big reason why she still loves what she does. Before the park, Rhodes was a nurse and would work a couple days a week for the family business, eventually taking on the job fulltime. This year, the park opens officially for the season on May 1.
“We’re ready to go for the season and are so excited,” Rhodes said. “So many campers like meeting each other. I like to know what all of the customers’ wants and needs are, where their sites are, who their kids are, so I kind of make that a priority, and that makes it fun for me to know all of them. You see their families grow.”
