Yes, dogs are allowed to stay overnight at Burrum Shores Beachfront Campground, but with strict conditions. - Accommodation/Sites: Dogs are permitted on specific sites (typically powered/grassy sites). - Pet Policy & Rules: - Supervision: Dogs must be supervised at all times and cannot be left unattended in the park, including inside caravans or tents if you leave. - Leash Rules: Dogs must be on a leash at all times whilst in the campground. - Size/Fees: The Pet Policy does not explicitly list size restrictions, but they focus on responsible pet ownership. It is recommended to contact them di
Burrum Shores Beachfront Campground sits right on the sand at Burrum Heads on the Fraser Coast, with a council-designated off-leash dog beach directly in front of the park. It is one of the more genuinely dog-first stays in the area: dogs are welcome on both powered and unpowered sites, plus the on-site cabin known as The Shack.
The pet policy. Dogs are permitted on your booked site, on a leash at all times within the campground boundary, and must be supervised the whole stay, they cannot be left alone in a tent, caravan or cabin while you go sightseeing. Dogs are not allowed inside communal areas such as the amenities block or camp kitchen, and cannot be washed anywhere in the park, so plan on a bucket and towel at your own site. Owners are responsible for picking up after their dog. The park does not publish a size or breed restriction, but confirm current pet terms and any fee at booking.
The place. This is a nature-focused, eco-minded campground with birdlife (60-plus species reported), resident lizards and kangaroos, drinking water taps near sites, raised fire pits for campfires, and 2WD-accessible sites suitable for anything from a swag to a full motorhome.
Location and nearby. The standout for dog owners is the beach itself: guests report the stretch out front allows dogs to run off-leash, right off your site. Three boat ramps sit within two minutes of the front gate, and Burrum Heads' shops and services are a five-minute drive away.
Before you book. Ask specifically whether your chosen site type (powered, unpowered or The Shack) is pet-friendly, confirm any pet fee, and bring your own wash gear since the park doesn't allow washing dogs on-site.
