2026 Merlefest Camping @ Wilkes YMCA

Campers at the YMCA get full facility access during our operating hours, and early access on Saturday and Sunday.

We have tent sites, campfire sites, and limited pop up/van camper sites. This is primitive camping with no power or water, but plenty of access to potable water, a pavilion with restrooms, and port a jons for outside of our operating hours.

Campers can swim, workout, and enjoy our coffee bar, along with those hot showers after a night of camping!
