The DDH Philosophy is that we believe in creating an environment where our staff can not only have a great time, live and explore a beautiful place, but also be able to make and save a considerable amount of money. We want our staff to enjoy themselves both personally and professionally, thus promoting a positive atmosphere where guest and crew can benefit. Therefore we offer very affordable nice housing and pay competitive wages with a generous bonus plan.

Living and working here represents a lifestyle and attitude, more than just a summer job. It is an opportunity to learn a variety of skills, develop a strong work ethic and it can be a place to learn and grow both personally and professionally. Due to our remote location more often than not; we build it, we fix it, we bake it, we make it work. A sense of place grows from the earnest work of maintaining this enterprise, from the camaraderie and friendships that grow and from our commitment to provide the best quality experience for our guests in a setting that is beyond compare. A desire to be part of something bigger than ones self and enjoying the process of making it happen for our guests, our fellow crew members and ourselves.

Our restaurant mission is simple; the finest food, freshest ingredients, affordable pricing while servicing our guests with unparalled Alaskan hospitality.

The DDH is owned and operated by two best friends. We are one of the few privately owned and operated restaurants left in Denali as all the rest have been bought out by the corporate giants. We feel truly blessed to be living and working in one of the most spectacular places on earth and we place a high value on finding like minded people and strive to be the best employer in the area.

Our expectations are simple! All crew members must be professional, punctual, and good ambassadors of the GAFC. We believe in treating our crew members with dignity and respect and accept nothing less in return.

Season Dates: Beginning Mid- May thru Mid-September

Food: One shift meal will be provided, and 20% off will be given for any off-shift meals during non-peak hours at all three restaurants (Creekside Cafe, Denali Doghouse, and The Great Alaska Fish and Chip Co.).

Bonus Information: Season end bonuses available. This is a “Thank You” to our crew for all you do throughout our season. It is given at the end of the season to those that complete their work contract with a Fully Satisfactory or Outstanding job performance rating. This includes a positive work attitude to co-workers and management, a good work ethic with excellent results, completion of work contract, adhering to housing contract and collective cleaning duties, and returning the housing unit back to the state in which it was given to you (clean and well kept). Season end bonus pay ranges from .50-$1.00 per hour for the total number of hours worked during your contract. Example: $1.00 per hour bonus X 14 weeks X 40 hrs per week = $560.00.
