About this property

5-Acre Enchanted Farm: Pool, Mini Horses & Views

Summary:

Firefly Grove is a 5-acre boutique farm and creative haven where imagination and nature entwine. Every corner holds a “first”—a moment of wonder waiting to be discovered. Meet animals you’ve never met, taste fruits you’ve never tried, and explore a world where down is up, and up is down.



Designed for intimate gatherings, creative retreats, and dreamers of all kinds, Firefly Grove invites you to slow down, reconnect, and experience life through a more enchanted lens.



The Space:

🌿 SCENERY

Step into a living storybook—five acres of avocado groves, exotic fruit trees, and a shimmering pond surrounded by gardens that change with the seasons. Wander past flowering herbs, towering trees, and fruit you won’t find anywhere else. Every path leads to something new: a hidden hammock, a quiet bench, or a friendly face (furred or feathered).



🐐 SANCTUARY

Here, animals roam and wonder thrives. Meet our gentle mini-horses, mischievous goats, clucking hens, and four Flemish Giant rabbits. Honeybees hum around the orchard, dogs keep watch with soft hearts, and every creature plays a role in the rhythm of the farm.



🍋 SAVOR

Our culinary garden bursts with unique herbs, blossoms, and seasonal vegetables—many of which end up in our farm-fresh experiences. Guests can book private workshops like Forage & Feast, where you harvest and create a farm-to-table snack, or Botanical Dyeing, where plants become pigments. Every activity celebrates creativity, sustainability, and sensory delight.



💫 SLUMBER

Inside Faelight Manor (4BR/2.5BA | Sleeps 12), every room tells a story. The home is a maximalist wonderland of vintage treasures and artistic details:



Princess and the Pea Suite: A regal king bed and moonlit bathtub for soaking under the stars.



Jade Dream Room: Two king beds in tranquil jade tones.



Disco Sun Room: Three bohemian twin beds drenched in sunlight and sparkle.



Cabinet of Curiosities Library: A cozy king bed and daybed surrounded by rare finds and peculiar delights.



*Additional accommodations may be available



🕊️ SAUNTER

Follow winding paths to meditation rocks, a waterfall, and secret gardens. Lounge by the pool and jacuzzi, gather around the fire pit, or bask on the rooftop deck as the sun melts over the hills. Our 3,500-sq-ft deck is perfect for yoga, picnics, and open-air dinners, while the sprawling lawn invites celebration and play.



🔮 SERENITY

Retreat to our flex treatment room, available for massage, energy work, or creative healing modalities. Whether you’re hosting a wellness retreat, girls’ getaway, or romantic weekend, our small team specializes in curating meaningful experiences that bring your vision to life.



🌙SUNSET TO STARDUST

When twilight falls, the Grove transforms. Lanterns flicker, giant dandelions glow, and soft lights weave through the trees like fireflies come to life. It’s a sight guests never forget—the kind of magic you have to see to believe.



💛 SERVICE

Our on-site hosts and farm team ensure each stay is personal and unforgettable. We’ll guide you through the grove, introduce you to our animals, and help design custom experiences for your group.



📍 LOCATION

Located in Bonsall, CA—just minutes from Temecula’s wineries, coastal beaches, and scenic hiking trails—Firefly Grove feels worlds away, yet close to everything.



OTHER NOTES

- Livestock guardian dogs patrol the property; please inform us of any allergies or concerns

- Leashed dogs are welcome with prior notice.

- No large events or parties

- A liability waiver is required for all guests prior to check-in.



✨ Stay Curious. Stay Inspired. Stay at Firefly Grove.



Guest Access:

Guests have access to Faelight Manor, the main house and the game room in Lilypad Lakehouse. Guests are welcome to explore the grove and interact with our friendly animals. Please note that entering animal enclosures requires accompaniment by a farmhand for everyone’s safety.



The Neighborhood:

Firefly Grove is located in Bonsall, a quiet rural town nestled among avocado groves and horse properties. While it feels tucked away, Bonsall is just a short drive from the surrounding communities of Fallbrook, Vista, and Temecula—with plenty of local markets, wineries, and small-town charm to explore. Coastal spots like Oceanside and Carlsbad are also within reach, making it easy to enjoy a beach day before returning to the stillness of the Grove.



Getting Around:

Firefly Grove is best experienced by car, as the surrounding area is rural and not walkable or connected to public transportation. Free parking is available on-site, and most local destinations—wineries, shops, beaches, and town centers—are within a 15–30 minute drive. Ride shares like Uber and Lyft are sometimes available, but we recommend scheduling in advance if possible, as availability can be limited in the area.



Other Things to Note:

We have 2 livestock guardian dogs, who roam day and night, protecting the grove. Upon seeing you, they may bark with a friendly hello. Please advise us in advance if you have a sensitivity towards dogs. They are fine to stay on a lead or in the horse shelter. Dogs are allowed but must be leashed outdoors at all times.



Interaction with Guests:

While the gate and house open with a simple code, we would be delighted to welcome you with a guided tour. Let us know your arrival time ahead of your journey, and we’ll be there to help begin your storybook stay.



For any questions or concerns during your stay, please don't hesitate to reach out.



Firefly Grove is an active working farm with a caretaker living on-site in Rapunzel's Tower. Monday through Thursday, Farm hands may be working during your stay.

We had such a magical time at Firefly Grove! Every room felt like stepping into a different storybook—so much personality, charm, and fun details everywhere you look. The kids were obsessed with the Disco Sun Room, and we all took turns soaking in the moonlit tub in the Princess suite. The whole property felt like a hidden wonderland.Outside was just as amazing—the views, the animals (bunnies!!), the pool, and all the peaceful little spots to sit and just take it all in. The twinkling lights in the trees at night were pure magic. We also loved the farm tour and learning about the gardens. Honestly, it was hard to leave! Already dreaming about our next visit.

Awesome pool and great escape from the city

We stayed here for a week with our kids and loved it. The place sits on about five acres, so the kids ran and played while we relaxed. Every morning we drank coffee by the warm pool and watched the valley wake up. The rest of the day was full of cannonballs and float time. Friendly chickens and cute bunnies wandered around and made the property feel like a storybook.Inside, the house is bright and colorful. The sofas are soft, and the beds are very comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook family dinners. The hosts replied quickly to every message and left us fresh eggs and fruit when we arrived.If you want a fun and easy spot for a family trip, this is it. We are already planning our next visit.
