Wanted: College students (19 to apply) or older to come and work at our ranch resort for the 2017 summer season. The season runs early May through the end of August. Tumbling River Ranch is a premier dude ranch resort hiring for all positions including: cooks, baker, wait staff, housekeepers, children counselors, nannies, wranglers, fly-fishing guides, ranch hands, drivers, dish washers and office staff.
