5 Bachelor filming locations you have to visit in real life
1. Bachelor Mansion (The Bachelor)
This final destination is the holy grail, must-see experience for any true Bachelor fan. What kind of viewer are you if you’ve never spent time wondering what the mansion is like in real life??
Thankfully, this locale gets so much publicity that it’s actually pretty hard to miss. Located just outside of bright and beautiful Agoura Hills, California, the mansion is owned by a family. It’s difficult to imagine anything but half-naked men and women running around those halls!
The show only films there for around two months out of the year, so living in the mansion proves unique, but totally doable. Apparently, just before filming begins the family moves out and literally everything they own that isn’t tied down is taken out. There’s even some repainting that happens, depending on the gender and personality of whoever is leading the season. You can read all about the fascinating details in this Us Weekly interview with the mansion’s owner, Marshall Haraden.
While you can’t have your own overnight in the Bachelor mansion, you can certainly drive by the property. Apparently it’s not super easy to get to, but the dedicated fan may find the trip worth it.
That being said, the Bachelor mansion might not currently be all that you expect. The home was very recently affected by the California wildfires. Haraden has reported that while the main house still stands, some of the other property is gone. Fans everywhere are still mourning the tragedy.
