PLEASE READ ALL SITE INFORMATION BEFORE SUBMITTING A BOOKING REQUEST. REQUESTS THAT DON’T PROVIDE THE REQUIRED INFORMATION WILL NOT BE PROCESSED.
When submitting a booking request you MUST include the following information: Your vehicle make and model, camping setup (tent/swag/camper trailer/caravan etc), type of toilet and ensuite tent (if booking an Elevated site) and number of occupants (adults, children, dogs).
Stonesthrow is a 106 acre rural property in the peaceful Illinbah Valley. Nestled between Beechmont and Canungra, we are about an hour (a stones throw) from the Gold Coast or Brisbane. Over time, the property has been used to farm goats, train racing camels and spell racehorses and is now a family hobby farm. We currently have three dogs, cows, horses, goats and some friendly donkeys who love to meet new people for some pats and a carrot!
The Stonesthrow Bush Camping sites are close to the beautiful shallow creek that meanders its way through the property. These sites have access to facilities - toilets, a powered shed, kettle, fridge and a sink. Some sites offer 2WD access yet still facilitate the experience of camping in the bush. THESE ARE THE ONLY SITES THAT CARAVANS CAN ACCESS.
The Stonesthrow Elevated sites are located higher up, with stunning views of the valley. These sites are only accessible by capable 4WD and require you to bring your own sealed, chemical camping toilet and ensuite tent which we sight on arrival before allowing guests access to the track. Check-in must be during daylight hours to enable safe access. Off-road camper trailers can access these sites.
Friendly dogs are welcome and must be kept on a lead when in close proximity to the cottage and other campers. Please note, the availability of certain sites is weather-dependent.
We are not a 4WD adventure park. Vehicles must be left at your campsite and NOT used to explore the property. Exploration of the property is welcome by foot or bicycle: 1.2 km from bottom to top.
Due to insurance considerations, no 'day visitors' are allowed unless they have an approved Hipcamp booking.
We are a Leave No Trace campground - ensure what you bring in, leaves with you.

Located 19 km due east of the famous historical village of Tenterfield the working, cattle breeding, property "Mindoo" has recently opened its gates to campers.
Framed by the rugged border range National Parks "Mindoo" is 1100 acres of rolling green hills dissected by the pure, cascading, waters of the Cataract River which provide a number of private riverside campsites. Campers are encouraged to meander along the continually changing River and explore its many secluded swimming holes and enjoy the abundant wildlife that cohabitates with the Angus/Wagyu cow herd. Direct access to the neighbouring National Parks and State Forests offers an array of day trips to hikers, mountain bikers, or horse riders where they can discover the natural treasures of Basket Swamp and Boonoo Boonoo Falls, Woolool Woolooni, among others.
For those who require a little more comfort, and lets face it we all do at times, the Mindoo Cabin is available. Featuring three bedrooms, open plan living/dining/kitchen,and a shady deck overlooking the River the cabin sleeps eight and still allows visitors to partake in all the adventures that "Mindoo" offers with the benefit of a comfortable rest when the day is done.
Unfortunately horse riding is no longer covered by our insurance policy. You are able to bring your horses, however evidence of your own insurance policy must be provided.
Be as adventurous or as restful as you please as both options are freely available. Mountain Biking, Hiking, or just riding your hammock and relaxing we are sure you will enjoy your time at "Mindoo". All of our river sites are designated and are space apart.
As most of our sites are on the river and have farm tracks to access, if it is wet we may have to move you to a different site. 4wds are recommended for all sites and are required for some site. Please read the listing for the campsite you are wanting to book. Some of our sites do not suit caravans. All roads require high clearance vans.
If you do not like dogs or your own dogs are not very sociable Mindoo may not be the place for you. Daisy the Doodle (Golden Retriever/Poodle) and Paul the Pig Dog (a very gentle Bull Mastif/Catahoula) like to come and say hello to campers at The Park & The Junction.

We stayed for three nights at Stones Throw Bush Camping and really enjoyed the experience. It’s a quiet, relaxed spot that feels a world away from the busy pace of everyday life.
The presence of donkeys and cows gave it a real country feel, and being able to have our dogs with us made it even better—they had so much space to enjoy themselves.
Overall, it’s a simple, peaceful getaway that’s perfect if you want to unwind and spend time in nature. We left feeling refreshed and would definitely return.

Rowlands Creek is serene and peaceful camp and we thoroughly enjoyed our 3 nights there under the stars and listening to the creek bubbling away. Easy access to Uki and the Mt Jerusalem NP walking trails. Brodie has a great place and it’s lovingly maintained and Matilda the horse loved to visit. We’ll certainly be back for another camp..

Absolutely beautiful spot, woke up the cows catching the morning sun. Kids played on the swing in the tree. No toilets or showers which was fine for us as we have both but you do need to be fully self sustainable. We had a such a great time we stayed an extra night.

Stunning views, highly recommend. Got the perfect site, right at the lake. Was able to take our kayak out, and my fur baby was worn out with walks, please note no dogs on the lake. Perfectly clean amenities with toilets and hot showers. Overall, this camp was perfect, and well maintained. Thank you.

Beautiful location nestled in the Border Ranges with clear creek at bottom of site. Lots of space, tho most of it is sloped, not alot of flat areas for set up. Got fairly busy (& loud noise carries around the natural ampitheatre!)
Also sound of long transport trains running every 4/5hrs (day and night) can be pretty loud, esp at night.

We loved camping at Andrew Drynan park, it’s well kept and the team who look after it are extremely friendly and helpful. During the week was wonderful and quiet, only note I would make is that come the weekend it became very busy and people don’t hesitate to set up camp right next to you so if your looking for something more on the quiet side I’d definitely head out during the weekdays. Overall we had a good time, would recommend!

Awesome place to stay. Definitely need a 4WD. Thanks to Phil for helping us up the hill with his tractor as I don’t think we would have made it. Next time we will take our swags! Was an awesome spot. We were at Lovers Lanes and had a great area all by ourselves with a creek right next to us . Was a great weekend for swimming and our dog loved it as well. Thanks again Phil and Carol for all your help❤️
