The front paddock is a small level clearing suited to single or couples in roof top campers or vans - if heavy rain or wet ideally better for 4wd. But fine for 2wd when dry. A great Sunshine Coast camp site a short drive to Mooloolaba Beach. Joyful Valley is a 40 acre property with large level grass areas surrounded by trees. There are several water ponds and a creek with tiny fish, lotus flowers, kangaroos, goannas, horses, lots of butterflies and bird life to see. A large level field great to kick the footy about. This is a super convenient location. The Bruce Highway and major tourist routes are a very short drive away. The property stretches back and the main road can only be seen from “the billabongs” site.

Old Horse Arena - North West Corner

100%

(9)

RV/tent site · Sleeps 4 · Vehicles under 6 m

The north/west corner directly overlooks the central horse paddock; a beautiful maintained grass area where kangaroo’s also like to feed. It’s tucked away off to the side of the main “old horse arena” area. So, because it’s a bit smaller it’s most suited for rooftop campers or tent campers with a 4wd as access to turn is a bit tighter. In dry weather 2wd’s are fine too. It has a large log seat. Aussie Camp at Joyful Valley Lane is a super convenient location. The Bruce Highway and major tourist routes are a very short drive away. Enjoy bush camping but still very close to shops, beaches, Aussie World and Australia Zoo. A bike path joins our front boundary that links you directly with Aussie World and Banana Benders Pub. Campers will need to be self contained with their own toilet/shower facilities and take all waste and rubbish with them on departure. Please drive very slowly on the lane at all times. It is a private road, through private property, shared with children and wildlife.

Review summary
Generated from real Hipcamper reviews
This campsite is a fantastic spot for those looking to enjoy a blend of nature and convenience. Campers appreciate the spacious and well-maintained grounds, with plenty of wildlife like kangaroos and kookaburras adding to the charm. While some traffic noise from the nearby highway is mentioned, most found it non-intrusive, enjoying the proximity to local attractions and amenities. The host, Brad, receives high praise for his helpfulness and hospitality, ensuring a pleasant and worry-free stay.

It was a great spot to base ourselves to catch up with friends over a few days. Our host happened to meet us at tge gate and gave us a few tios of spots to oark up. It was so nice to wake up and watch the beautiful horses in the paddock behind us. Only slight road noise. It's a bit tricky getting in as it was a bit rough but not too bad.

Easy to find. Not too wet after the rain so good for 2WD Sprinter to get in. Nice and flat and very little noise from passing traffic.

Camped in a 4 m camper trailer at Old Horse Arena - 1 with kids, Aug 2026.
Recommends
Fabulous camp spot. Easy to find. Good roads/paths on site. Bit of road noise from the motorway. Can still hear the birds and other animals. We had daily visits from a lone kookaburra, a magpie pair, and 4 magpie larks. There is a big family of kangaroos too. Good flat areas to camp, with plenty of space to be away from large gums potentially dropping branches, but still get their shade.
