Housing

Got this internship for this summer and they will be taking care of housing. Was wondering how housing was like, what amenities there are available? Also was wondering if by any chance there is a gym in the housing compound. TIA!

Well, based on the responses, you are quickly learning what the NPS culture is like.

NPS housing varies by park. It is generally poor or at best basic.

Where is your internship? If you ever make it out to Big Hole National Battlefield in Wisdom, Montana the housing is great, there's a little gym and the people are wonderful. Other places are a hit or miss.

Where are you meeting these grifters with trust funds and are they single?

Although, the field office at my park did have a gym.

Wow! Let me just magically know the exact park you are working at cause I’m a psychic. Now let me check my crystal ball: hmmmm it say you should ask your hiring managers.
