With just one campsite on the entire property, guests enjoy unrivaled privacy and an intimate connection to nature that few places can offer.

We've always loved camping at Stoney! Being able to relax under the stars by the lake or lagoon makes it feel like a million-dollar site. It ticks many boxes for us - not too expensive, dog-friendly, fires allowed, and freedom to camp where you want to with heaps of space available. Plus a lake to swim in and an aqua park to enjoy!
We were disappointed this year to find that Hipcampers now can't access the showers, which have been changed to coded doors. But we understand that this has helped to create some order in peak times, and if you're self-sufficient, it doesn't make much difference to the experience.
