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 Jacobs Well guide

Overview

You’re never far from the water in Jacobs Well. This pint-sized town sits at the meeting point of the Pimpama River and Moreton Bay, surrounded by island getaways and scenic waterways. With its tiny town centre and single campground, Jacobs Well might not be the obvious destination for southern Queensland campers, but its strategic location between Brisbane and the Gold Coast makes it a great spot to escape the crowds. The beaches and theme parks of Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach are just a half-hour drive away, and you can hire a boat or kayak to paddle and fish around Southern Moreton Bay Islands National Park. At Jacobs Well tourist parks, campers are likely to find pet-friendly powered and unpowered sites with access to a camp kitchen, BBQ areas, and picnic tables. Alternatively, snag a spot at a waterfront Hipcamp or pitch your tent at a beachside or waterview site on South Stradbroke Island.
