Our sites are completely isolated from town, with views and not visible from the road. Sites are set among nearly 100 acres of a mix of open land and rainforest. Multiple natural springs exist on the property and a few small spring-fed waterholes are scattered down the cascading hills. Friendly ducks, geese, fish, horses and an abundance of native wildlife live here. This location is home to several endangered species due to being one of the last isolated pockets of rainforest in the area.
Sites are part of The Bush Clinic where we specialise in designing and making natural creams, soaps, teas, dodorants and other products as well as running regular Meditation courses and topics such as Energy, Frequency, Grounding and Advanced Organic Growth techniques for those wanting to join in are formally available during your stay.
We are new to HipCamp so have limited facilities at present, but they are in progress and we have loads of space per site, comfortable, and lots to offer for those wanting to reconnect with Nature. If you know what ley-lines are - this is the right place to visit ;-)
PS if you are towing a van or camper pls remember to engage 4wd at the front gravel gate (low range 2nd is best). This helps avoid chewing the road up...

Don't forget the marshmallows to roast on the fire at night (firewood provided).
Binoculars and boots are a must for bird watching and exploring our walking tracks through the forest.
All campsites have basic toilet facilities (a portaloo) and firepit (with a free bag of kindling provided). Stockyard Creek Campsite also includes a picnic table.

Our sites are completely isolated from town, with views and not visible from the road. Sites are set among nearly 100 acres of a mix of open land and rainforest. Multiple natural springs exist on the property and a few small spring-fed waterholes are scattered down the cascading hills. Friendly ducks, geese, fish, horses and an abundance of native wildlife live here. This location is home to several endangered species due to being one of the last isolated pockets of rainforest in the area.
Sites are part of The Bush Clinic where we specialise in designing and making natural creams, soaps, teas, dodorants and other products as well as running regular Meditation courses and topics such as Energy, Frequency, Grounding and Advanced Organic Growth techniques for those wanting to join in are formally available during your stay.
We are new to HipCamp so have limited facilities at present, but they are in progress and we have loads of space per site, comfortable, and lots to offer for those wanting to reconnect with Nature. If you know what ley-lines are - this is the right place to visit ;-)
PS if you are towing a van or camper pls remember to engage 4wd at the front gravel gate (low range 2nd is best). This helps avoid chewing the road up...

Kerry Valley Secret - Stockyard Creek, Kingfisher and Platypus Campsites in the Scenic Rim are exclusive bush campsites - once you have booked no-one else will be able to camp at that site - and they are perfect for groups!
The Stockyard Creek Campsite is situated on the babbling Stockyard Creek and there is a short walk to the bigger Albert River waterhole.
This pretty spot features Silky Oaks and Ironwood trees, views to Luke's Bluff and Ding Bing falls in Lamington National Park, has plenty of shade for tents and a huge space for caravans and camper trailers to turn around in
Family groups love the site for the babbling but shallow child friendly Stockyard Creek - perfect for paddling and playing in.
The Kingfisher and Platypus Campsites have larger waterholes than the Stockyard Creek Campsite, are great for fishing and swimming as you wander the 2km of river frontage . They both have easy access off the main Kerry Road.
Friends love our campsites for catch ups, the bird watching, small historical or nature walks around the property and of course the cool waterholes in the Albert River.
Other groups use Kerry Valley Secret as a base camp for hiking adventures in the wilderness end of Lamington National Park.
Bring your togs and floaties to cool down in the waterhole on the Albert River.
Don't forget the marshmallows to roast on the fire at night (firewood provided).
Binoculars and boots are a must for bird watching and exploring our walking tracks through the forest.
All campsites have basic toilet facilities (a portaloo) and firepit (with a free bag of kindling provided). Stockyard Creek Campsite also includes a picnic table.
Exclusivity is a feature of all our campsite and for that reason we only take a flat rate booking. Once you have booked no one else will be able to camp at the site, it is all yours.

We had such a peaceful stay here and honestly didn’t want to leave. The property is beautiful, with plenty of space and a really calm, relaxing feel.
Camped here with my two dogs and it was perfect for them, open space to explore, quiet surroundings, and they settled in so easily.
The views were stunning, especially during sunset, and it was just one of those places where you can fully switch off and slow down.

We absolutely loved camping at Kezza & Dave's land. We ended up being at the powered site by the tank, site 5, which was great as it was quiet and private. Kezza & Dave were fantastic and always available if we needed anything. Kezza took us on a farm tour and we learnt so much, this was a highlight of our trip. They also had the kindest dog, Marley, who always stopped in for a daily visit. Even though it was just my husband and I we couldn't help but cook enough food for 3, as Marley is just the sweetest and enjoyed Hubbys bbq meat. Was thankful that we had bug spray as the mozzies were relentless, but that's the normal with bush camping. Overall 10/10 and will definitely be back. Thanks Kezza & Dave for being amazing!

We had a group of families with kids and Dogs over the Easter break and it was a fantastic camp spot. It has everything for the parents and kids, Nice flat ground to set up and a great spot on the creek for the kids to spend all day playing around which gave us adults to be able to take in the peaceful surroundings and watch the world go by listening to the running creek. Having this camp site separate was great as we had heaps of space for the caravans and for everyone to kick a footy and a game of cricket not having to stress about cars and other camper driving through. Great to have the toilet on site and great camp fire area overlooking the creek and to watch the stars at night. We will definitely be back as its so close to us yet a world away when your camped up. Thanks Patrick and Tom for a great spot and the great communication.

Booked last minute and on a public holiday, Guy was a very responsive host and was there to see us check in. We stayed at the sunset ridge site which was a private, very well kept nature retreat, we missed sunset but waking up in the sunny morning overlooking the mountains was beautiful. We also got to be apart of feeding all the rescue farm animals he has which was my favourite part of the stay. Couldn’t recommend this hipcamp more!

Where to go
Tamborine Mountain
A short drive north of Canungra, Mt. Tamborine National Park is brimming with natural wonders. Hike to waterfalls, explore magical glow-worm caves, swim in natural rock pools, and look out for rare birds such as Albert’s lyrebird. While you’re in the region, stop by the town of Tamborine Mountain to browse the shops and check out the foodie scene.
Lamington National Park
Just south of Canungra, Lamington National Park is one of Queensland’s most visited national parks. There are two sections to the park—Green Mountains (O’Reilly’s) and Binna Burra—where you can enjoy bushwalking through UNESCO-listed rainforest, go wildlife-watching, and cool off at natural swimming holes. Camping options range from powered sites and glamping spots to bush camping in the heart of the rainforest.
Gold Coast
Brisbane and the Gold Coast are just a short drive from Canungra, where you can get your fill of sun, sand, and surf. Check into a holiday park or caravan park in Southport, Nerang, or Surfers Paradise, then visit the Gold Coast’s famous theme parks, go kayaking around the canals, or chill out at the white-sand beaches.
When to go
The Gold Coast is Queensland’s quintessential summer vacation destination, and the sun shines year-round in the hinterlands too. Summer temperatures tend to be slightly cooler in the hinterlands, making Canungra a good place to escape the heat and the crowds of the Gold Coast from December through January. Alternatively, the warm winter weather is ideal for outdoor activities, and you can also enjoy annual events such as the Canungra show (August) and Canungra Rodeo (July).
