A beautiful garden spot in a rural neighborhood. Dogwood Shangri La lies in the heart of the town of Bear River. A park, river-walk and candy store are an easy stroll. There is a pull-thru gravel driveway suitable for RV's with power & water. For those desiring a roof there is also a clean 5'x8' wooden-floor, uninsulated camping cabin in a dogwood enclosure. A block to the north is a little candy store (8am-8pm), post office (closes mid-day) and church. A block to the east is a shady park with horseshoes, volleyball, ball field, slides, merry-go-round, fire pit, restrooms (summer) and arena. To the south is the cemetery and to the west is a school playground. Explore the town with ease on foot or bicycle (we have some to loan). There are a few snakes and toads but chances you'll step on one are slithering remote. The gardens pose a risk of toppling over only as rain storms transform them into treacherous mud-slips. There is a rooster on the block as well as some dogs but things are generally quite peaceful... barnyard peaceful. A sewage dump is available. The Town of Corinne is 3 miles to the south and features: Corinne Short Stop: 3878 West Hwy UT-13, weekdays 4:30am to 10pm, weekends 9am to 10 pm, 435-744-2603 Bear River Coop Hardware: 2780 N 4800 W, Corinne, UT 84307 C-Store Hours 5am-10pm, Hardware Closes at 5 or 6 pm, 435-744-2211 I-15 is about four miles to the north and has two gas stations, a couple fast food venders and plenty of other travel-plaza type supplies.This is a garden with privacy provided by tall dogwoods (and, ultimately, by the maker of the dogwoods). In season, the adjacent garden will have zucchini, corn, peppers and tomatoes. There is a fire bowl and a barbecue grill. Gas and groceries are available a block away. The city park is one block away.

Perfect spot!!!!!
Fred and his lovely wife are truly amazing. I can't thank them enough for their hospitality. My trailer is almost 24' tongue to tail with a long bed Duramax and it was easily placed into the parking spot. Power and water are very accessible. You will need a pressure regulator for the hose and about 25' to 50' of hose for freshwater. Depending on where you park.... I would recommend this site to everyone. Thank you guys for letting me stay with you and I appreciate everything you do.

Perfect!
This spot has it all... beautiful view, flat surface, great communication from the friendly host, great lawn with playground and fresh fruit and veggies! Probably the best Hip Camp we have stayed at!

Wonderful again
This was our second visit to Dogwood Solace. It was as we had remembered it, clean and cool in the afternoon shade next to the garage, with a place to plug in our electricity. Our host was very responsive and respectful of our privacy. We highly recommend this spot.

Don't miss Fred's place!
Oh my gosh! Where do I start with a compliment? Fred helped us from the very start feel almost like family! He came out to greet us and was so welcoming and warm. He brought us a couple pieces of cake that his wife had made, gave me some gladiolus bulbs, and apricot almonds. I can't say enough about this place. His home and everything around it felt like it was loved. And so did we! XXOO

Peaceful
This garden campsite was perfect for us. Fred was very helpful providing a place for us to plug in and suggestions for things to see and do. It was quiet and peaceful. The mountains to the East made a picturesque backdrop.
