Yodelin Stevens Pass Area Owner Group

Yodelin


Established in 2012, our group emerged from a shared realization: a distinct lack of community among the “tagged” lot owners of Yodelin. Proudly encompassing owners who have joined to enhance our collective experience and steward the enjoyment of our cherished area. Many of our members are orginal owners, who hand picked their lots back in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. 


The “Yodelin tagged lot” designation singles out 114 properties in Yodelin, marked by Chelan County based on historical reports. The tagged lots in Yodelin feature a mix of properties, ranging from unimproved lots, some with enhancements, to others boasting structures/dwellings. Our group is exclusively for the owners of these properties. Our mission is to provide a deeper understanding as we advance as a group.

Aerial photograph of the Yodelin community and Ski Area near Stevens Pass from 1969. Initially, Yodelin was devoid of trees when it was first developed. Historical accounts suggest that recurring fires, sparked by the railroad, decimated the area’s trees. Subsequent clear-cutting of the remaining trees transformed the landscape into a bare expanse surrounding the small enclave of private property and access roads near Stevens Pass, WA. Take a look below of how the Yodelin area looks in 2024 in comparison.
