    About Firefly Grove

    Set on 5 private acres in the hills of Bonsall, Firefly Grove is a one-of-a-kind production estate with backdrops you won't find anywhere else in Southern California. A waterfall-fed pond framed by twin gazebos and a wooden bridge. A glowing firefly lightscape with illuminated dandelions. An orchard of 400 exotic fruit trees. A breezeway with a vintage chariot. A greenhouse flooded with hot pink light. All in one location. This eclectic, design-forward estate blends moody vintage interiors, romantic outdoor tableaus, and working farm life — creating a layered visual world that photographers, directors, and content teams return to again and again. Every corner holds a distinct vignette. Golden hour here is exceptional. **NOTE: Base price includes EXTERIOR access only.
