Job Description
Valley Overlook is looking for a dependable part-time housekeeper to join our small hospitality team. We operate cabins, furnished tents, campsites, and common areas in an outdoor setting near Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
This position is a good fit for someone who enjoys active, independent work, daytime hours, being outdoors, and working for a small local business.

This is a part-time position with variable hours based on reservations and business needs.
Sunday availability is required.
Most housekeeping shifts:
- Begin around 10:30 AM
- Last approximately 3–5 hours
- End by approximately 4:15 PM
- Do not require regular evening or early-morning work
Our busiest season is generally April through October. During the off-season, we anticipate approximately 5–15 hours per week based on applicant availability and business needs. Hours may fall below this range, including weeks with no scheduled shifts. We are looking for someone whose schedule allows them to maintain dependable availability despite variations in weekly hours.
Responsibilities
Typical work includes:
- Cleaning and preparing cabins and outdoor furnished tents between guests
- Cleaning bathrooms and common areas
- Changing bedding and preparing guest spaces
- Restocking supplies
- Occasional laundry
- Seasonal deep cleaning and other housekeeping-related work
- Moving between accommodations throughout our property
This is physical, hands-on cleaning work. Much of the workday involves walking between buildings and accommodations outdoors, including in hot, cold, or wet weather.
What We're Looking For
The right person will be:
- Dependable and consistently available for scheduled shifts
- Comfortable working independently
- Able to maintain a good pace while cleaning thoroughly
- Comfortable with physical work and being on their feet for most of a shift
- Able to perform the physical requirements of the position, including lifting approximately 40 pounds
- Comfortable working indoors and outdoors in varying weather conditions
Additional Information
- Reliable transportation is required.
- Because we are located in the Peninsula/Cuyahoga Valley area and most shifts are relatively short, applicants should consider the commute carefully before applying.
- Prior cleaning experience is preferred, but it does not need to be professional or paid housekeeping experience.
- Reliability, attention to detail, and willingness to learn are essential.
Please submit a resume or a short description of your work history with your application.
