From the lots in Kettle Falls to the back roads near Loon Lake, the Stevens County GIS map shows who owns what and roughly where the lines fall.
Read on for the official viewer, a short orientation from Kettle Falls out to Loon Lake, and the land-record steps that back up what you see on screen.
Where to open the official Stevens County GIS map
Open the statewide Washington Current Parcels layer in ArcGIS Map Viewer and zoom toward Colville; Stevens County's parcels are part of that layer. Once parcel lines appear, click any tract near Chewelah to see who owns it and how many acres the county records. The same link lives on our Stevens County county page, along with links for the surrounding area.
Behind the map: land records in Stevens County
Every line on the Stevens County map traces back to a recorded deed or plat, and the county's recording office keeps those documents. Recording offices go by different titles from state to state, including register of deeds, recorder, county clerk and clerk of court; the official Stevens County website names the one that handles deeds. For subdivision lots in Springdale, the plat book and page on the record leads straight to the recorded plat.
The lay of the land in Stevens County
The county seat is Colville; Chewelah, Kettle Falls, Marcus, and Northport are among the other communities you can zoom to. For scale: roughly 2,477 square miles of land and an estimated 48,837 residents as of 2023, per the Census Bureau. Town lots in Kettle Falls give way to farm tracts and woodlots within a mile or two, and the roads toward Colville are lined with small acreage splits. Public ground such as Colville National Forest, Kaniksu National Forest, and Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area appears as large unbroken blocks, and the private parcels around them draw hunters and recreation buyers.
Who uses the Stevens County parcel map
Different people come to the Stevens County parcel map for different reasons. Hunters in Stevens County use the owner names to line up permission well before the season. For hobby-farm buyers near Chewelah, the parcel map shows how a tract sits against its neighbors and the road. For a house near Loon Lake, the parcel record confirms acreage and shows whether the driveway appears to cross another tract. Rural owners near Loon Lake use the map to see how many acres the county has on record for them and who owns the land next door.
Private and public hunting ground in Stevens County
Hunters working the country toward the Ferry County line can use the parcel map to put a name on every woodlot and field. Public options include Colville National Forest, Kaniksu National Forest, and Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area; check the boundaries carefully, because private inholdings and neighboring tracts aren't open to the public. Seasons, licenses and public hunting areas are set by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, so check their rules and maps too. Ask owners near Marcus early, ask politely, and send a thank-you after the season.
What the Stevens County GIS map shows about lot lines
Parcel boundaries on the Stevens County viewer are drawn to keep tax accounts straight, so small offsets from the true line are expected. Rural Stevens County land sits on the federal survey grid: a deed might call out a quarter of a numbered section in a given township and range. A survey is the only document that settles where a Stevens County boundary actually runs.
A note on timing and acreage
If a tract near Marcus changed hands recently, the recorded deed is more current than the map. Treat Stevens County acreage figures as estimates until a survey confirms them.
Common questions
How can I see my lot lines in Stevens County?
Map first, then the recorded plat or deed, then a survey: that order works for any boundary question in Stevens County.
Can I use the Stevens County map to hunt private land?
The map tells you who owns the woods near Loon Lake; the owner decides whether you can hunt there.
How do I look up a property owner in Stevens County?
For land near Kettle Falls with no street address, pan to it on the map and click it; the record names the owner.
Can I trust the acreage on the Stevens County map?
Tax acreage for a lot in Chewelah and the deeded acreage come from different sources, so they can disagree; a survey settles it.

Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey, especially for fences, setbacks, or boundary disputes.
