Stonesthrow
31 sites · RVs, Tents106 acres · Illinbah, QLD
Stonesthrow is a rural property in the Illinbah valley, nestled between Beechmont and Canungra, with council approval for limited camping (4WD only - leave no trace). So if you want to escape the crowds at public campgrounds, your privacy and enjoyment are assured!
We are NOT a 4WD park so vehicles must be parked up at your site on arrival and left there unless leaving the property to go to town/tourist activities. Any exploration of the property or travel to toilets is strictly on foot only- NO 4WD'ing. Anyone driving around the property will be asked to leave.
There is 500 m of (shallow) creek frontage, kms of walking/riding trails and grassy creek flats for recreational activities. Over the decades, the property has been used to farm goats, train racing camels and spell racehorses. There is also a variety of fruit trees and plantation timber.
Caravans are restricted on where they can access- with no guarantee of sufficient sunlight for solar. Elevated/remote sites cannot be reached with a caravan- please bear this in mind if booking with a caravan. Elevated/remote sites require capable 4WD's with off-road/AT/mud tyres only and campers need to be fully self-sufficient including having their own chemical camping toilets. If you don't have your own commercial chemical camping toilet then you will be given a choice of sites with access to facilities. We reserve the right to view/verify your toilet before allowing you access to the elevated/remote sites.
Well behaved dogs welcome as long as they are on a lead when moving about the property. The common area (old shearing shed) has composting toilets, communal fridge, microwave, jug, drinking water, sink for washing up and table/chairs.

The Kirell Coastal Hideout
3 sites · RVs1 acre · Gold Coast, QLD
Nestled in a wildlife corridor, our 1.4 acre property is surrounded by trees and nature. There are two campsites separated by a communal picnic table and fire pit which ensures your privacy. There is also a toilet block with a toilet. The spot is located in the backyard, away from the main house where the owners live.
A stone's throw to everything the Gold Coast has to offer. Less than 10 minutes to Tallebudgera, Palm Beach and Currumbin beaches, 15 minutes to swimming holes and waterfalls in the hinterland and to the thriving restaurant and nightlife scene in Burleigh or Coolangatta. 30 minutes to the heart of Surfer's Paradise, 45 minutes to Byron Bay. 5 minutes to supermarkets and shopping at The Pines and 19th Ave shops.
As we are in a nature corridor, please ensure you do not collect firewood from the property grounds and take your trash out with you. There is a petrol station around the corner (corner of 19th Ave and Guineas Creek Road) with bins, firewood for sale and a water tap.
Please note that being 1.4 acres, our property is ideal for overnight stays and using as a base for a trip to the Gold Coast as it is quiet, private and has a stellar location. It is truly seclusion in suburbia. For those who plan to spend most of their time at the campsite and are looking for a much more wild, bush camping experience - we suggest you book a site further inland where you will find larger properties to camp on.
Thank you! We look forward to hosting you!

The best camping near Burleigh Head National Park guide
Overview
About
Embark on an adventure through Burleigh Head National Park, a scenic treasure on the Gold Coast. Traverse rainforest trails, spot migrating humpback whales, and marvel at the dramatic coastal views. While camping isn't available within the park, the array of activities from birdwatching to exploring ancient volcanic columns ensures a memorable visit for nature enthusiasts and day-trippers alike.
When to go
The best time to visit Burleigh Head National Park is during the cooler months from May to October, when the weather is mild and ideal for hiking. Avoid the peak of summer, as the heat and humidity can be intense. Winter and spring also offer the chance to witness humpback whales on their annual migration.
Know before you go
- Check park alerts for track closures before your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
- Wear sturdy footwear and bring water, as some trails can be challenging and facilities are limited.
- Respect the wildlife by keeping a safe distance and not feeding the animals.
- Be mindful of the cultural significance of the area to the Traditional Owners and treat the land with respect.
- Photography is encouraged, but drones and other visual recording devices may be restricted in certain areas.
