Set on the holiday park’s namesake – One Mile Beach – there’s no need to factor in a commute for your morning beach stroll or swim these holidays.
If you’re feeling adventurous during your stay, you’re in for a treat with over 26 beaches located in the Port Stephens region including the 32-kilometre Stockton Beach, which is home to the largest sand dunes in the southern hemisphere.
It’s these very dunes where you can experience camel rides at sunset or sandboarding down them at high speed.
Choose between camping, caravan sites, cabins or villas for your stay at Ingenia Holidays One Mile Beach – with direct beach access available from all villas for those who enjoy the idea of waking up to the sound of rolling waves.
While you’ve got the best of Port Stephens less than 15 minutes’ drive away, there’s plenty to keep the family entertained within the holiday park grounds such as a games room, jumping cushion, playground and ball court.
Given its position along the coastline, seafood lovers will love the local oyster bars and seafood restaurants close by, like restaurant institution Rick Steins at Bannisters.

What a quiet and sweet place to camp. Loved that we had it to ourselves. The sounds of birds and cows was delightful. Minimal car noise from the road and none at night time. No water in the creek for our visit this time, but would be beautiful when flowing. It certainly didn’t spoil how relaxing it was. Great host!

My daughter and I camped in swags on site 4. It was private and tranquil. The creek was low and mozzies were pretty intense however we anticipated that and were prepared. There were no other campers so we were lucky to have such an exclusive experience. The road is nearby however noise was minimal - even with long-weekend travellers. The bird life was great too! Waking up with multiple kookaburras was beautiful. There was a shower which looked good however we didn't use it as we were only there a short time.
If you're camping in a tent or swag, site 4 is the best. Lots of shade and away from other more open sites.
We will likely stay there again on our next visit to the region.
Definitely recommend it if you're keen for the basics. Loved it.

We stayed for seven nights in a caravan to explore the surrounding area. It was a convenient distance from Taree and the coast. It had been very dry recently and the creek was totally dry, unfortunately. Access from the road was clear and the large site was pretty level with lots of clear spots to choose from. While there was some road noise, it wasn't often and didn't bother us. It didn't detract from the peace and tranquility we experienced. Communication with the host was minimal and as necessary to be keep us updated.
We enjoyed our stay and would return in the future.

A nice simple stop for a night for us. The campfire was a lovely touch with lots of dry wood to collect. We stayed on site 2, there was an electric fence that kept sounding an alarm every 5 mins which made it very difficult to sleep. The water around site 3 and 4 had been stagnant for a long time with a smell coming off of it also.

We stayed here for 3 nights and was one of the best camp sites we’ve stayed in! Reception staff are very welcoming, the site itself is really well maintained and there’s plenty to do. The pool area is perfect, the beach is only a short walk with a cafe/bar/restaurant just by it. Would highly recommend!
