Stonesthrow

31 sites · RVs, Tents106 acres · Illinbah, QLD
Stonesthrow is a 106 acre rural property in the peaceful Illinbah Valley. Nestled between Beechmont and Canungra, we are just an hour - a stones throw - from the Gold Coast or Brisbane. Over the decades, the property has been used to farm goats, train racing camels and spell racehorses. It's now a family hobby farm and a bush camping venue. We currently have two dogs, a handful of cows, horses, goats and some friendly donkeys who love to meet new people for some pats and a carrot! We offer a choice of (unpowered) sites, ranging from elevated with views of the valley, or closer to the beautiful shallow creek that meanders its way through the property. ELEVATED SITES have stunning views of the valley and are the preferred choice for the free range horses and cows to spend their time. These sites are only accessible by capable 4WD and require you to bring your own chemical camping toilet and ensuite tent which we sight on arrival. Check-in must be during daylight hours to enable safe access. These sites are not suitable for caravan access. LOWER SITES are closer to the creek and to facilities such as toilets, a powered shed, kettle, microwave, fridge and a sink. Most of these sites offer 2WD access yet still facilitate the experience of camping in the bush. Friendly dogs are welcome and must be kept on a lead when in close proximity to the cottage and other campers. So we are able to allocate you the most suitable site, when submitting a booking request please include your vehicle make &model, camping setup (tent/swag/4WD camper trailer/caravan etc) and number of occupants (adults, children, dogs) . Include your preference for an elevated or lower site (please note, the availability of certain sites is weather dependant). Other things to note: • Exploration of the property is welcome by foot or bicycle: 1.2 km from bottom to top. • We are not a 4WD adventure park. Vehicles must be left at your campsite and NOT used to explore the property. • No 'day visitors' are allowed unless they have an approved booking through Hipcamp. • Phone reception is patchy. • Firewood is available for purchase on site. Cash preferred. • This is a Leave No Trace campground - ensure what you bring in, leaves with you. • Fires must be properly extinguished prior to departure.

Camping near Cedar Grove guide

Overview

Part of the larger city of Logan, Cedar Grove sits along Logan River and provides campers with some of the most naturally abundant lands and scenic views in Australia. Stay next to natural attractions in a variety of accommodations—from dispersed swag pitches to safari tents to caravan sites. Tamborine National Park to the west presents a bountiful network of rainforests and unique plant communities while preserving the beauty of Tamborine Mountain. Nearby, Nerang National Park—a mountain-biking paradise—takes campers through extensive tracks and shared trails. South of Cedar Grove, explore Lamington National Park’s untouched rainforest lands on walking paths that wind through waterfalls, creeks, and landscapes.

Where to go

Tamborine National Park

About 30 kilometres west of Cedar Grove, Tamborine National Park beckons with some of the best views of the Gold Coast hinterlands. Encompassing Witches Falls, Queensland’s first national park, Tamborine National Park offers vast systems of rainforest, woodlands, and other plant communities for campers to explore along walking tracks and forest trails for horseback riding. While the park does not permit camping, private campgrounds around Tamborine Mountain welcome tent campers, caravanners, and glampers. Amenities at nearby campsites include flushing toilets, firepits, and pet-friendly day areas, as well as hookups for motorhomes.

Nerang National Park

Nerang National Park is another Gold Coast gem for campers to explore. Take bushwalks and horse rides through the park’s eucalypt forests and rainforests. Best known for its mountain-biking opportunities, the park offers shared trails, including 20 designated cycling trails for all experience levels. Nerang doesn’t allow camping, though the surrounding area provides numerous holiday and camping accommodations for tents and caravans. Amenities include BBQs, laundromats, and free wifi, along with both powered and unpowered sites.

Lamington National Park

Officially designated as one of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, Lamington covers over 20,000 hectares of ancient forests and waterways. Traverse an extensive network of walking tracks to fully explore the grounds, from Gwongoorool to Python Rock. Along with opportunities for remote bushwhacking, Lamington’s designated camping area includes 24 tent or swag sites, 21 campervan sites, and 17 safari tents with shared ensuite pods. A wheelchair-accessible amenities block also includes nine toilets and 10 showers. Check out the communal kitchen, communal fire pit, and community hub to meet the neighbours.

When to go

Due to its year-round temperate weather, it’s always a good time to camp near Cedar Grove. The peak season tends to be summer when average highs hover around 30°C with high humidity and some precipitation. The off-season in Cedar Grove still sees plenty of activity as campers enjoy the sights without the heat. Winter sees an average high of about 22.5°C with chillier temperatures at night.
