About Dexter

Dexter is a 29-room boutique hotel in Elk Rapids that brings together thoughtfully designed accommodations, a neighborhood café, and an evening lounge under one roof.

The property was conceived with a strong emphasis on craft, materiality, and a sense of place. Interiors layer custom furnishings, vintage pieces sourced locally, and objects created by regional makers to create an environment that feels collected, warm, and intentional.

At the center of the hotel is Noble Lounge, a refined but approachable gathering space offering cocktails, wine, and a thoughtfully prepared food menu for both hotel guests and the local community. During the day, the café provides espresso, coffee, and light fare—creating a welcoming rhythm from morning through evening.

Dexter was created to feel less like a traditional hotel and more like a well-lived home—where design, food, and hospitality come together naturally.

Working at Dexter

Dexter is a small, collaborative team where attention to detail and pride in craft matter. Every role directly shapes the guest experience, and team members regularly move across functions to support the overall rhythm of the property.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, takes pride in both hospitality and food & beverage service, and values being part of a highly collaborative environment.

Position Overview

This is a blended hospitality role designed for team members who enjoy working across multiple aspects of guest service.

As a Guest Experience Associate, you will serve as the primary point of contact for guests while also supporting the café and Noble Lounge. Depending on the shift, this role transitions between front desk operations, morning barista service, and evening lounge hosting.

The goal of this position is to create a seamless, thoughtful experience across every guest touchpoint—from morning coffee to evening service to overnight stay.

Morning Shift (7:00 AM – 2:00 PM)

Afternoon / Evening Shift (2:00 PM – 10:00 PM)

Front desk operations (check-in, concierge support)
Host responsibilities for Noble Lounge (greeting, seating, managing flow)

Peak season runs May through October, with increased need for weekend and evening availability.

Compensation

Base Pay: $18.00/hour
Tip Pool Participation: Café and Noble Lounge shifts

Based on typical service volume, team members can expect an additional ~$2–$6/hour in tips during service periods.
