Join Our Team We've got some BIG NEWS to share over the coming months! BUT…. Before we get ahead of ourselves, we need to make SOME BIG HIRES that may offer a few clues about where our focus is headed!   That's right, we are growing into some wild new terrain over the coming year and you may play a role in bringing it all to life by either tossing your suit into the pool OR by recommending someone YOU would love to see onsite. Right now, we are hiring for - -Our Spring / Summer Resident Hosting Couple -A local (Cache Valley / Southern Idaho / SLC) part time hosting couple -Resident Yoga Fellow And, we are introducing two new roles for the season ahead! -Farm / Garden Manager or Consultant!!!! -Marketing + Events Coordinator The journey to Maple for most of our team members begins by asking some simple questions...⁠ ⁠ Should we shake things up and live, work, and heal at a hot springs? ⁠ ⁠ Are we tired of computers and scary Sundays and moody Mondays? Do we want to work with our hands and heart in equal amounts? Are we flexible and do we make people feel welcome? Can we hold space for guests of all shapes, sizes, genders, beliefs, and backgrounds?⁠ ⁠ Can we work hard in new ways and be calm in the face of even newer problems? ⁠Can we balance the wisdom found in historic land with the fresh hustle that start-up projects often require? ⁠ ⁠You'll be joining a long line of artful peers who are here to help you step in to the role and support you as you lead us into the Summer ahead. ⁠ ⁠ You will do things you never thought possible. You will laugh, cry, breakdown and build yourselves back up. And through it all, you will change the lives of thousands of fellow humans who are simply looking for a place to rest, a place to learn, a place to grow, and a place to feel at ease. ⁠ ⁠ You will make this possible. ⁠ If this sounds like you, a loved one, or a friend, review the jobs and send in your materials ASAP. We accept applications on a rolling basis. We intend to fill these overalls as soon as possible! JOIN OUR TEAM Host Managers   Do you and your partner have what it takes to be the hosts of a 60 acre solar-powered hot springs retreat center for the Spring / Summer Season ahead? We asked this 6 months ago and were overwhelmed by the incredible community of teams who threw their swimsuits into the ring. In fact, it was a record year of applicants and through the process, Brian & Mailin bubbled up as your hosts. With backgrounds in writing, teaching, guiding and more, they have spent the Fall holding space with a level of ease, steadiness, and gentle consistency that's anchored in our entire team. And this March, a new pair of partners will step into their boots. Could it be you?   We are now accepting applications for our Spring / Summer 26' hosting couple/team The position starts March 25th! Also looking for a local part time couple.   Apply Farm & Garden Manager   The Farm and Garden Manager will be responsible for the comprehensive planning, coordination, and execution of all activities related to Maple Grove's future in educational farming and community garden spaces.   This includes overseeing sustainable agricultural practices, managing staff and volunteers, coordinating community engagement and educational programs, and ensuring the productivity and health of all growing areas.   Apply Marketing & Events Coordinator   Creating community experiences alongside meaningful storytelling about what we're learning onsite has been part of our mission since the beginning. This role will weave together both by producing concerts, workshops, gatherings, wellness offerings and more.   Apply Yoga / Sauna Fellow   Seeking a certified instructor who wants to refine their practice by offering a daily ritual flow in our Forest Yurt, Gathering Lawn, and pools in exchange for onsite housing for 6-8 weeks!    This fellowship is designed to offer time, space, and ritual for the right candidate to use our Center and guest experience for the betterment of their own personal practice and teaching objectives.   Apply A Note on Belonging... SAMENESS, INEQUALITY & EXCLUSION are having a moment right now. Institutions, orgs & even entire States & Nations are buckling under the public pressures that be. We're not having it. Consider this… Our team is White, Latino, Mormon, Catholic, Atheist, Gay, Straight, Republican, Democrat, Divorced, Married, Single & everywhere in between. Some have kids, many do not. We've got Masters Degrees, colleges under the belt alongside some hard earned GED's and never granted high school diplomas. We've been in prison, on Mormon missions, on University football teams, film sets, farms, and serving your food. We're in our 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, and 60's. We've been on food stamps, in high finance, on picket lines & in poverty. The weirder we individually get, the wiser we collectively become. We're a lot like those of you who show up in our pools. The communities we serve are liberal, conservative, religious, atheist, scientists, astrologers, new agers, old hippies, young doctors, fancy lawyers, rugged farmers, entrepreneurs, potato pickers, construction workers, teachers, hunters, hikers, ranchers & outdoor enthusiasts. Wouldn't it be lame if our team didn't relate to, nor represent in any way shape or form, the communities we serve? If the space we held was solely informed by a homogenous life experience that looked like the same old powers that be, would our vision not be embarrassingly narrow? Diversity, authenticity, and relatability aren't free handouts at the expense of the average status quo, they are incredibly competitive legs up in the face of a globalized and changing sense of community. We are at our best when we weave together wildly complimentary and diverse skills, perspectives, and intuitions. When leadership and organizations cease to embody those they serve, they're creating with their eyes wide shut. We stand proud to invest into diversity wherever it needs to show up.

LOVE IS ACTION 163 years ago today, our Federal Government, enabled by Cache Valley pioneers, lost it's way. The result?    The murder of well over 400 Shoshone women, children & men during a frigid Jan sunrise  along the banks of an icy Boa Ogoi River.    Lest we forget, that's what the Federal Government is capable of.    If you haven't noticed, you're in a moment that history will reflect on. Scrutinize. Learn from. And yes, judge upon.    It's easy to look back on big cultural moments in our modern democracy & presume WHO we would have been in all the complex clashes of the times - Indigenous genocide, slavery, voting rights, gender equality, racial desegregation, & yes, even the interdependence of immigration.   Today, we commemorate the 163rd year since the Bear River Massacre downstream.    Had we lived then, who would we have been? How would we have spoken up? Who would we have held to account?   Would we have been the Cache Valley neighbors who sent requests to remove the "Indian" problem to SLC? Would we have supported the call of Utah leaders for Federal troops to "fix" those who looked & lived differently?    Would we have ever wondered if WE were the invaders fomenting problems, not the Shoshone?  When they were murdered on Jan 29th, would we have protested? Would we have sought justice? Or, as it happened, would we have simply remained quiet? In place of accountability did we force assimilation in the aftermath?   Today, there isn't much we can do to correct the ancestral failures surrounding the Bear River Massacre.    But, we can ask similar questions about our own streets.    Are we comfortable with outside troops racially profiling and rounding up our brown neighbors without warrants nor due process?    Do we support masked men in our streets wielding guns for which they have no training, enforcing laws around which they have no education, only to see them invade our communities & escalate our tensions?   When they shoot our mothers in the face, do we look away? When they tackle our brothers in the streets and fire not 1, 2, nor 3 bullets but 10 into their back, do we stand taller or kneel lower?    WHO ARE WE TODAY, on this 163 anniversary of the BEAR RIVER MASSACRE? This weekend, there are a few ways to shift the National mood and impact our local ecosystems. First, consider what participating in a National Strike against the current unlawful ICE crackdown can look and feel like for you. For us, we find ourselves already hosting travelers from all across the Mountain West and accept the responsibility we have to follow through with folks who've made plans weeks or even months ago. As a result, we will remain open for those already on the road or inside our pools. If you don't have plans, stay home and let's see what collective action can do!   For those in the Greater Salt Lake Valley, we encourage you to spread your voice downriver at Utah's State Capitol on Sat, Jan 31st at noon in support of the drying Great Salt Lake. The 2026 Utah Legislative Session is underway and we're committed to see every last drop from our pools make it to their final destination.   And if this all sounds like a bit much from your local hot spring, it's because it is.   We're in the business of safe communities, clean air, fresh water, and restful moments together as friends, neighbors, strangers, and hot springers. Until our broader National river is calm, you'll usually find a few gentle waves in our shore. No matter your politics, our shared values are what keep us floating in the same pool.   If you're like us, feeling the LOVE amidst this mid-winter post-holiday cultural & political crash can be a cold uphill battle. Toss in a pressurized day to BE IN LOVE and February gets weird fast. Which is why we're taking a broader pass at Valentine's weekend-   A 2/14 massage workshop for couples interested to learn basic therapeutic techniques to stretch, alleviate pain, and deepen relaxation. A 2/14 pop-up pizza night with Chef Will from Pizza Nono to flirt with your tastebuds. An 2/14 acoustic fireside concert to spoon your nervous system back to life All offered, of course, with ever-generous love that only a 107F hot mineral pool can offer. We have a variety of ticket options, including afternoon, half-day, and overnight packages.   Experiences   Do you and your partner have what it takes to be the hosts of a 60 acre solar-powered hot springs retreat center for the Spring / Summer Season ahead?
