Camp Kanata

13524 Camp Kanata Road, Wake Forest, NC 27587

YMCA Camp Kanata is located on 150 acres in North Carolina, just north of Raleigh, N.C.

Camp Kanata is a traditional, coed, overnight summer camp for kids ages 6 – 15. We offer traditional overnight camp activities, such as archery, hiking, swimming and creative arts, and water activities on our 15-acre lake.

On the lake, campers can canoe and kayak or go feet-first down our 75-foot double waterslide.

We believe in nurturing the potential of every child to develop into confident, competent leaders and their best selves. Our 1:5 counselor-to-camper ratio ensures a safe environment and staff who know your child personally.

Summer 2020 Decision

Like you, we were looking forward to another amazing summer at Camp. However, after much thoughtful consideration, we will not be running our traditional Overnight Summer Camp this summer.

This was one of the toughest decisions we’ve had to make. But it is the right one for us.

Due to the size of Camp and our unique program design, the reality of COVID-19 simply does not allow us to provide the safe and exceptional experience that is a traditional overnight Camp Kanata summer.

And while we aren’t able to deliver our traditional summer Camp programs, we are finalizing plans to offer a different type of Camp---a Kanata experience that will be for both campers and their families---this summer.
