The Recovery VillageReviews of therecoveryvillage.com

The Staff was incredible from the techs, nurses, doctors, and therapists. Even the food made by an actual chef was good. I didn't have a bad experience with any department. The environment was safe and as comfortable as it can be. They use a variety of treatment methods so it isn't a cookie cutter philosophy, a true holistic approach. Highly recommend The Recovery Village at Palmer Lake 3-1-17

I feel the staff as companionate. I learned a lot about my addiction and myself. I am still sober and feel a part of the recovery village and very thankful for their help.

This rehab really helped me. I've been to rehab before but it's been a few months and I am still sober. I'm really grateful I got to go there.

The Recovery Village has helped me work my way back to sobriety. This was my first experience with rehab and I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the staff was great and really invested in my recovery. Being in a caring environment with people who know what they’re doing really helped me see this through. Being in treatment with others helped me get perspective that I wasn’t alone and that recovery was a real possibility. The classes and therapy have given me tools to help deal with the triggers and habits that drove my substance abuse. It’s a serious program, but the outcome has been worth it. I really feel like I’ve gotten my life back and I am so grateful to the staff who supported me and helped make it happen.. This was the first step of a long journey, but I definitely feel like I made the right choice!

I am a heroin addict. I grew up in Rhode Island and had a wonderful family, but this illness doesn't discriminate. After ruining my life enough in RI, I was offered the option to receive treatment in Florida. After attending The Recovery Village inpatient program I knew I wanted to start fresh in FL. This place, Next Step Village, allowed me to do just that. I was never one to have much structure but this place provided me with a structured living environment that allowed me to focus on what was important, which is working a program of recovery and developing life skills. I want to stress the experience I had was due to the willingness to do anything required of me to stay clean and sober. At first the rules and the client drama seemed a dooming facet of this program, an unnecessary distraction that could be harmful to my recovery, but I learned how this experience was really benefiting me. It gave me perspective. Everywhere I go there will be problems of some sort but it is how I deal with them that defines me. Structure was what I needed. Following directions was what I had to learn. In terms of amenities, this is the best facility I have ever seen. Basketball, volleyball, a pool, beautiful views of the lake out back are all included. Beautiful brand new kitchen and daily cleaning keeps the place like new. I want to express my deepest gratitude for the owner, Mitch, for caring about each and every client and always being there if anyone needed help. You truly are an inspiration to me. The two house managers, Keith and Mike, for being more than a house manager but a friend. If you are serious about your recovery and wish to lead a life of happiness, I strongly recommend this facility. Remember, you can build a new life if you work the right path, and this place has all the tools.

This place is a saving grace. The staff (Mitch, Cynthia, Melissa, Mike, Alyssa, Keith and more) were from the very start caring, passionate, and sincere in helping me personally to grow in recovery. The support and structure provided from the community here has given me a new sense of hope. I am so blessed to have this place and the wonderful people here in my life as I continue on my journey of sobriety!

Great place to focus on sobriety and learn the life skills to stay sober. It's no walk in the park or spa at a resort. You actually have to go to classes, threapy, doctor appointments and more. You are surrounded by staff that actually care about you and other addicts who embrace you knowing that we are all going through the same struggles in life. Food and lodging is adequate and not fancy. It took me about 3 days in rehabilitation when I actually laughed so hard that my belly hurt....my first sober laugh in many years. I'm still sober and keep in touch with friends I met there. If you're looking to get sober and start life in a new direcrion, go to this place. It's worth it.

My daughter came in to the facility after having a seizure. She was withdrawing from Xanax and other substances. I was worried about her health, they helped her through and gave her hope. I noticed a difference in my child's demeanor after 15 days. Her therapist is excellent, I know we have a long way to go, but I am hopeful and I know we can achieve recovery.
