Bondoola, QLD · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
Our little slice of paradise is 25 acres, about 8 minutes from Yeppoon's beautiful beaches and islands, and 35 minutes from Byfield's rainforest!
Situated up a sealed asphalt driveway on a hill you can see the ocean and islands in the distance to the East and Byfield Ranges to the North. With the elevation a steady Easterly breeze off the ocean most of the year it keeps the property a nice temperature, almost as if you are right on the beach.
We have a range of native local wildlife roaming around, from green tree frogs to cockatoos, parrots to lizards, Goannas to wallabies.
When it comes to flora there is about 15 acres of the place which has never been cleared, containing ironbark, lemon scented gums, stringybark, and wattle trees among various other shrubs.
Being situated at the end of a no through road you don't need to worry about a noisy highway or road, all you will hear is nature and the environment. We allow small campfires (outside of fire-bans) but please be respectful and utilise the two firepits provided. Dogs are also allowed as long as they are kept on a lead, and are friendly to others as we also have 3 dogs in our yard.
With plenty of space between sites there's no need to be worried about being jam packed in like a caravan park. That's one thing we aim to avoid.
Our property is a work in progress. Having purchased it 5 years ago as a very baron and blank canvas we now have over 20 varieties of fruit trees planted over the last few years, with countless days and weeks spent landscaping, gardening and spreading topsoil for lawns. Its still far from perfect but its something we love and want to share.
There is just over 1 km of smooth gravel road to our turn off, but our driveway is sealed with asphalt and moderately steep. 2WD vehicles can make it up, it just requires a little momentum. However if you are towing anything substantial you will require a 4WD. The two sites are right up the top of the hill, but still suitable for larger vans (over 20ft) and small busses - provided the towing vehicles etc. are okay with climbing the driveway.

Each campsite is thoughtfully set back from the main road to ensure privacy and peace, with plenty of space between sites so you can enjoy an authentic camping experience under the open sky—without the noise of nearby campers. Fires are welcome in our designated fire pits, making it easy to enjoy cozy evenings surrounded by nature.

As a quiet family living at the back of the block, we maintain a no-party policy to preserve the serenity of the space. Come and reconnect with nature on this peaceful, spacious block—your perfect camping getaway awaits!
🐾 Dogs are welcome!
We totally understand that your furry friend is part of the family, and they're more than welcome to join you.
We just kindly ask that you keep your dog close by and on a lead while you're here. We have our own dog on the property, and for everyone's safety and peace of mind, we want to avoid any unexpected run-ins.
Also, we’re surrounded by beautiful bushland, and it’s not uncommon to see kangaroos and other wildlife around. To help protect them—and keep your dog safe too—please make sure they don’t chase or wander.
Thanks so much for understanding! 🐶💛

Such a fantastic spot! We could see straight to Yeppoon and on to the Keppels. Was a beautiful breeze every afternoon. Green grass with a nice little firepit to keep the bugs away.
We had two families so booked the whole spot.
Definitely recommend ☺️

A really lovely site with great views, lots of nature and a huge amount of space for setting up. We heard and saw lots of birds including kookaburras, butcherbirds, orioles, and honeyeaters plus some distant wallabies. A great place to sit in the evening with the sun setting over the water.
Chris, the owner, was brilliant- we had problems with our water pump so he kindly provided us with 40L of drinking water and even offered to help find and fix the issue.
Our favourite site to date.

This is a VERY cool spot, the view of the ocean from the mountains is super specy! Really accessible to Yeppoon town centre and the beach & we took a day trip out to Great Keppel Island with no issues leaving our van set up. Very private and we would have been the noise. Bird watching and star gazing were top notch too👌

Great quiet spot with only 2 sites on the property, spaced apart from each other.
Perfect for the busy periods when they pack people like sardines in other places.
Can hear the road but not many cars passed and didn't bother us

What a cracker of a spot, very secluded and quiet. Tight to get in but worth it. Even get about 5 hours of sunlight as this was just right to charge batteries.
Lots of firewood to easily pick up around the site.
Camp is about halfway between Noosa and Eumundi so really easy to get to both.
Perfect spot!!!!

Great location with a short drive to Agnes Water and 1770. There’s only 2 sites and we were the only people there so it was super private. You can’t see the camping spots from the road. If both spots are booked, you might see each other, but there’s plenty of space between the sites. This would be a great spot for a small group. The fire pit in site 1 would be great on a cool night, and I imagine it would light up the trees beautifully. There’s a small amount of road noise, but it was barely noticeable. On arrival, don’t misinterpret the directions to site 2 like we did. You can see site 1 from the drive way. You need to turn right towards site 1 to go past it to site 2 (rather than passing it and staying on the driveway).

Really enjoyed our 6 nights. Site 1 is very large as seen in photos certainly plenty of room for a large group. Site 2 is slightly smaller but still lots of space.
Very easy to find,blue barrel on the drive which you can not miss. See photo of google maps, it send you down a right turn...just carry on the and the driveway is 100 metres past.
A small sign indicating site 2 would be good at the hipcamp sign, this will save others looking for site 2 driving onto and setting up on site one. The hosts directions were very clear to us, just read the information. You can hear rd noise but it's not a busy rd and didn't bother us. A 1 min drive to a fantastic coffee house and just a few mins more to Agnes and 1770.
We love our yearly trips to Agnes and will certainly stay at this camp again.
