 Company Description

About Us
Xanterra Parks & Resorts is the country's largest environmentally focused park and resort management company. Our mission is to be recognized as the leader in park and resort hospitality. Whether guests are seeking a once-in-a-lifetime experience at the Phantom Ranch, located on the floor of the Grand Canyon, or a luxurious spa vacation at the renowned Silverado Resort in Napa Valley, California, they can be assured of professionally managed hotels, restaurants, and retail shops.

We strive to create unforgettable memories for our guests, many of who come from around the world to see our country's legendary parks. Just as important is our desire to create a memorable experience for our employees -- we're a great Company to work with for a year or a career!

Our Philosophy
Our parks are our natural treasures, preserved for the benefit and enjoyment of the people, and should be protected, as defined in the Organic Act of 1916, “by such means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.”

Xanterra is dedicated to environmental stewardship and has a long-term commitment to protecting natural resources and public land. We emphasize ecologically sensitive tourism, which has resulted in our environmental management and conservation programs at national parks having received widespread acclaim.

Our Properties
Xanterra’s properties include a unique collection of National and State Parks, as well as resort destinations and conference centers throughout the United States. For information on the individual properties, please visit our website, http://www.xanterra.com, and click on Visit Our Destinations.

 Why People Like to Work for Us

Whether you join Xanterra as a part time or full time employee, you can be assured of a unique experience. Living and working in a national park provides a multitude of outdoor recreation and activity. Whether you enjoy hiking, camping, fishing, mountain biking, or just the natural beauty of the outdoors, you will find your experiences with Xanterra to be memorable.
