Workamper Accommodations May Vary

We’ve had our share of different workampng jobs over the years. Each one has offered it’s own unique RV site accommodations.

You may be wondering what type of campsites are provided for workampers. What kind of utilities and amenities are offered? Do they have full hookups? Well, I’m sure that all depends upon the job and location. We can only speak of our own experiences though, so I’ll share some scenes from our job sites for your consideration.

One of the few jobs we have not done, is work at your typical RV resort. We’ve stayed at quite a few though, and have met workampers there who are usually provided a pretty sweet site. Perhaps something like the very first place we ever stayed…

We quickly learned to keep our expectations low when it came to accommodations for RVers on a farm or ranch, where your first job duties may entail rigging up some sort of makeshift septic dump.

Granted, the workamping programs at these locations were new, and so were the RV sites! During our stint as New Mexico hot springs resort workampers though, this was our view…

Sometimes you have to take the good with the bad, and in this case free soaks in the hot springs made up for the cramped accommodations!

Some workamping jobs offer housing. In the case of our Arizona caretaking job, we had to use the house bathroom since there was no dump where we parked the RV…
