I would like to visit your community. How do I arrange for a tour?
We conduct regular tours monthly on the first Sunday (except when it is a major holiday). Reservations are not required. Tours begin promptly at 1:30 p.m. and take about an hour.
What is the process for becoming a member/resident of Yulupa Cohousing?
It is very important for you to visit and check out Yulupa to see if our community would be a good fit for you. We do not choose you but instead you need to decide if you want to choose us. First, come on a tour. This is a required step for being placed on our Wait List.
Next, attend a General Meeting to learn how we manage the community’s business. Your tour guide can give you the meeting dates and times for the current year.
Then, come to a community meal to meet more people and see if we are a fit for you.
May I join in a Community Work Day?
Work days are an excellent way to meet residents and get a feel for how we work together. Work days are held monthly, the last Saturday of the month, from 9 a.m. to noon, and focus primarily on landscape maintenance. Just show up and you will be welcome.
May I stay in your Guest Room while I am in town?
No, sorry, the guest room is solely for members and their guests.

Do the units have private yards?
The 4 townhouses have small private backyards. All other units have either a porch or a balcony, and many are shared with the adjoining unit. Are pets allowed? We allow one pet per unit. Dogs must be on leash in the shared outdoor space; cats are required to be indoor cats.
