**When submitting a booking request please describe in as MUCH DETAIL as possible your camping situation so we can place you at a suitable site. Please describe your camping set up, vehicle, type of group (couple, family, young friends etc) dog breeds, arrival time (after midday). 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 and goats. We have goat food for purchase on site. 🐐 The Lower Sites are close to the beautiful shallow creek that meanders its way through the property. These sites have access to facilities - toilets, shed, kettle, fridge and a sink. Most of these sites are suitable for 2WDs and some sites are accessible to caravans. The Elevated Sites are located higher up, with stunning views of the valley. These sites are only accessible by 4WD and require you to BYO sealed, chemical camping TOILET and ensuite tent. Off-road camper trailers can access these sites however NO caravans. 🐾 Friendly dogs are welcome and must be kept on a lead when in close proximity to the cottage due to free range chickens. Please note, the availability of certain sites is weather-dependent. šŸ‘£ Exploration of the property is by FOOT or bicycle only. 🚲 Any visitors MUST have a confirmed Hipcamp booking before arriving. šŸ”„ Firewood available šŸ”„ 20kg = $20 We are a Leave No Trace campground šŸ™…ā€ā™€ļø - ensure what you bring in, leaves with you.

The Stonesthrow Lower sites are close to the beautiful shallow creek that meanders its way through the property. All sites are unpowered. Access to power, camp kitchen (including fridge and water) and toilets are available at the Green Shed. Most (but not all) sites offer 2WD access yet still facilitate the experience of camping in the bush. Caravans can access some of these lower sites.

    Tent camped at Lower Site with pets, Oct 2026.

    Recommends

    Despite the rain, we had an amazing experience. We will 100% come back and stay for longer. They had the cutest welcome party- 3 dogs, 2 adorable kiddos, goats and really kind parents. All the sites were beautifully well kept and accessible, lush views and great amenities. Was so nice to walk around the property and hear all the wildlife. They’ve created something to be inspired by šŸ™ŒšŸ¾
