Are you or someone you know interested in renting to a ranger in need?

Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is seeking additional short-term housing for its seasonal workforce. According to Superintendent Scott Tucker, “Our employees make great renters as they all have steady paychecks and successfully completed background checks. These folks are trustworthy, loyal, clean, friendly, courteous… oh wait, wrong list, but you get the point.”

Most employees will be looking for temporary housing (four to seven months), preferably in furnished apartments or rooms with cooking privileges, beginning in April or May. Persons interested in receiving referrals for seasonal renters from the park should send detailed rental information, including a point of contact, to Len Mathieu at len_mathieu@nps.gov or call (231) 326-4710 with questions.
