Location Details

Hacienda 6 Palms

United States / Escondido, California
Location ID: #10277525

Mountain Top Hacienda 3 acre olive ranch with a very small and growing vineyard nestled among majestic California Coastal Live Oaks, Ancient Cacti, and Boulders that rival National Parks with spectacular views of the Palomar Mountains to the North East.

The ranch offers an abundance of locations in which to do photo shoots in privacy away from the public eye. In addition, we are now opening the property up to film for your movies and commercials.

There are various gardens throughout which offer you various settings for your shoots:

1. Southwest Desert Setting - You can place your models/actors/subjects on top of or in front of boulders, near cacti or even in a cactus garden, which gives the feel of a southwest desert in Arizona or California
2. Oak Trees with Spanish Moss - give the feel of the deep south with Spanish Moss blowing in the breeze from majestic oak trees
3. Romantic Gardens - with cafe tables and seating for 2 overlooking the Palomar Mountains
4. Yurt - with moroccan pillows and rugs which gives you a setting of being away in Joshua Tree
5. Outdoor Shower - allows you to film models enjoying showering outdoors in a private setting overlooking the mountains in a "Joshua Tree" style setting
6. Interior of the Spanish Ranch House - which is decorated beautifully in an eclectic mix of southwest US, collectibles, wood furniture custom designed and made in Costa Rica, Mexican blankets, Navajo pillows, and a Mexican pyramid fireplace
7. Landscaping and Landscape Lighting - allows amazing ambient setting for filming from sunset and into the night.
