DJ'S Dockside Resort

Four season resort: days on the lake, rides on the trails, and weekends in the snow. It all starts right here. Not your typical Northwoods bar menu.
(314)

This is food people talk about, cocktails people come back for, and a lake place worth finding! We are nestled on the shores of beautiful Lake Nelson, just seven miles from Hayward. Here you will find year 'round recreation at its best. Each cozy lakeside motel unit includes all the amenities (and more) you would expect in a resort cabin. Each unit has a fully furnished kitchen, sleeping accommoda

tions for one to six people, bathroom and private patio. We have a 17 unit motel, 2 cabins, 10 nightly full hook up RV sites, and 3 tent sites. Full liquor bar and restaurant.

🔥🔥 Looking 👀 For A Kitchen Manager (Full-Time)🔥🔥

DJ’S Dockside Resort

We’re looking for a Kitchen Manager to join our team and help lead the day-to-day in a newly renovated, chef-led kitchen serving elevated tavern food that’s approachable, satisfying, and worth the drive.

If you take pride in your work, care about your team, and enjoy running a kitchen the right way, this is a great opportunity to step into something special.

Pay & Schedule
✅$48,000 – $58,000 base salary (based on experience)
Plus tips
✅$1,000 signing bonus (paid quarterly during your first year)
✅45–50 hours per week
Wednesday–Sunday schedule
✅Performance based bonus potential after the first year.
✅Eligible to participate in 401k after the first year

About the Kitchen

You’ll be working alongside a chef who’s built his career in kitchens where standards matter and details count—but who also understands the importance of a strong team and a good culture.

Trained in Paris, where he developed a deep respect for technique and quality ingredients. Spent years running high-volume kitchens in New York City, where consistency was everything.

Worked with brands like Disney and the Crowne Plaza, where the guest experience always comes first. He brings that same level of care and professionalism here—but in a setting where people work hard, support each other, and take pride in what they’re building.

What You’ll Do
➡️Help lead daily kitchen operations and keep service running smoothly
➡️Support, train, and motivate the team
➡️Maintain strong standards for food quality and cleanliness
➡️Handle ordering, receiving, inventory, and cost control
➡️Work side-by-side, on the line, with the chef and line cooks to prepare and execute the menu consistently

Please share this opportunity to join our team with your networks!

Rolling into the weekend like… good food + good drinks = good decisions (or at least delicious ones).

Tonight is Friday Fish Fry 🐟 with your choice of
• Crispy Lake Perch
• Yuengling Beer‑Battered Walleye

Friendly reminder: Fridays are a limited menu — Fish Fry + our smashed burgers only.

And tomorrow… the big debut 👀

🔥 BROASTED CHICKEN 🔥
Made from scratch, fresh every time — brined in‑house, coated in‑house, and fried to perfection. Served with hot & crispy French fries, Texas toast, and succotash.

Limited daily supply since we make it all in‑house, so come early tomorrow if you want the good stuff.

Start your weekend with something worth talking about.
