Boyne River Rest Area
About this campsite
The Boyne River Rest Area is an ideal stopover with a smooth bitumen surface and top-quality facilities. Regardless of the size of your rig, it accommodates with ease, offering plentiful space for turning. The rest area is marked by interesting sculptures, adding an artistic touch. For convenience, the availability of town water makes it a great water filling station. Although generators can be used during the day, it is encouraged to respect the local residents due to the closeness of nearby houses. A minor drawback is the traffic noise from the adjacent highway and bridge.

Kin Kora Village Caravan Park
Kin Kora Village sits on twelve acres in the middle of Gladstone, backing onto the golf course and within walking distance of the shops, the lakes and the racecourse. Powered sites are concrete slabs, and drive-through sites can be requested when you book. Unpowered sites are on grass. The park takes large caravans and motorhomes. There is a pool at the front of the park, a camp kitchen, a barbecue area, and a central amenities block with laundry and accessible facilities. A dump point is available to guests. Dogs are welcome in your own caravan, and there is a grassed exercise area among the gums near the creek. Cabins range from standard rooms through to ensuite cabins sleeping a family of four. Worth knowing before you book: the park changed hands in 2025 and part of the caravan area is being converted to rental villas, so the number of tourist sites is smaller than older listings suggest. Book ahead in peak season.
