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.
All camp fires must be fully extinguished with water prior to departure.

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.
All camp fires must be fully extinguished with water prior to departure.

We loved the secluded private section that One Tree Hill had to offer, it was a last minute decision for us to go camping and this spot was an absolute Gem.
Would recommend! The sounds of nature & the views were spectacular.

Set up at the curtain fig drive was very easy as it was just after the entrance. Beautiful place, friendly family. Great stories about all the rescue animals and animal feedings twice a day was lovely too. Plenty to explore around the property.

With its well maintained grounds, Bindarah Downs is the perfect place to sit back and relax. With just the right balance of sun and shade, this camp offers self sufficient campers generous sized sites, fire pits and long creek banks (even though they are running low in water at the moment). Shayne and Kim are wonderful, friendly hosts and gave us clear directions. This place has become a firm favourite!

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’d definitely come back again 🐾🤍

Beautiful property det among rolling green hills and forest with the campground right next to a creek with shady trees. The grass was mowed and everything so clean. Picnic tables were really helpful. Shayne was very friendly.

Great little camp-site. Although the 10 sites are all in one area, so not as far apart as photos indicate, but still not on top of each other. No reception, no internet, which is perfect to relax. You do get some road noise as its right next to Mt Lindesay, but its not terrible. Creek had enough water for the dogs to swim. Friendly horses that come and say hi, and you can feed. Shayne and Kim were perfect hosts. We will be back!

We had a wonderful 5‑day stay at Bindarah Downs. Shayne and Kim were fantastic hosts with great communication and clear instructions from start to finish. They were incredibly helpful and accommodating, which made everything easy. The area we chose was peaceful and quiet — exactly what we needed for a relaxing break. Highly recommended.

Weekend Trip to Undullah-Moore farm
So much room to spread out and really good clean toilets and showers. The whole place has a really rustic vibe and the camp kitchen is a work of art. Its got an old log cabin feel with a community fire pit and a small pool with views overlooking the whole property. Owners were there all weekend making sure everything went smoothly. Thank you guys we'll back soon
