Job Description

Join Us at The Lone Rock Foundation Retreat in Bailey, CO – Line Cook

Located 40 mins from downtown Denver and 30 minutes from the foothill areas we are easy to get to and right off of Highway 285. Nestled in an inspiring natural setting, our nonprofit retreat center supports education leaders—by offering them a peaceful space to rest, reflect, and recharge.

What Sets Us Apart

Unlike traditional hospitality environments, The Lone Rock Foundation Retreat is not open 365 days a year. We only host groups up to 60 people and we only flip rooms 2-3 times of week due to our minimum two-night stay. Our calendar aligns with the rhythms of the education community, which often means time off during major holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s—creating a healthier work-life balance for our team.

We Take Care of You, Too

We offer a generous and competitive benefits package designed to support your health, well-being, and future :

• 4% 401(k) employer contribution
• 3 weeks' vacation time
• Up to 48 hours of paid sick leave
• 12 paid holidays annually
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Complimentary staff meals during shifts
• Comprehensive dental and vision coverage
• Above-market medical plan options, starting at $29 every two weeks
• Short-term and long-term disability insurance
• Exclusive employee discounts and reward perks

The Prep Cook at Lone Rock Foundation Retreat plays an important role in creating a warm, nourishing dining experience for our guests. Working under the direction of the culinary leadership team, the Prep Cook is responsible for preparing ingredients, maintaining kitchen cleanliness, and supporting the execution of meals that align with our retreat’s standards of care, quality, and hospitality.

This role requires attention to detail, consistency, and teamwork. The Prep Cook ensures that ingredients are prepped, stored, and rotated properly; that workstations remain clean and organized; and that the kitchen operates smoothly during service. By supporting the culinary team, the Prep Cook helps create meals that fuel and inspire our guests—education leaders and community members who gather at Lone Rock to recharge, connect, and grow.

The ideal candidate brings a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and a desire to contribute to a mission-driven environment. This position is perfect for someone who enjoys being part of a collaborative kitchen team and takes pride in preparing fresh, wholesome food for others.
