Maine seasonal opportunities

Maine is another beautiful state, especially along the coast. It is possible to work seasonally here. The kicker will be finding an RV site if your job doesn’t come with one. There aren’t that many campgrounds and the ones that are here are expensive. Look for a monthly or seasonal rate that should be more reasonable.

Looking over the help wanted ads in the Portland newspaper, The Maine Sunday Telegram, I found several possibilities:


  • Driver/tour guide. You need a CDL and the gift of gab.

  • Flaggers. One of the two companies seeks outdoor laborers in all areas.

  • Golf maintenance. ASAP - November.

  • Deliver phone books. Need own vehicle, begin Aug 6. Clerks and loaders needed too.
  • Seasonal worker at L.L. Bean
For an RV site, you could volunteer at one of the Maine State Parks. Workamper News lists jobs that provide an RV site so look there too. Friends worked at a campground near Bar Harbor that also rents kayaks. She worked in the office, he drove the truck hauling kayaks plus did maintenance. The Maine coast is outstanding. A little research will find a way to pay you to stay here. Jaimie
