Little Creek Recovery

amazing place, even more amazing staff who care for you like family. couldn't imagine going anywhere else other than Little Creek!

It was an incredible experience that changed my life.

Every element of this treatment experience is 5-star: one-on-one counseling, group therapy, Adventure Trek, lodging, amenities, food, staff. Inpatient and outpatient services are the best you’ll find anywhere. Staff truly care for each individual and want to see them succeed in their recovery. A very special place. Love LC from the bottom of my heart 💚

I had never been to treatment for my drinking before, and I was terrified. When I called Little Creek Lodge, I was in bad shape — one of the worst days of my drinking. From that first call, everything changed. Within 30 minutes my insurance was verified and I was on my way to detox. After detox, an employee from LCL came to pick me up, and the moment I arrived I felt a sense of relief. LCL follows a 12-step recovery process. I’m not religious — I used to call myself an atheist, and now I’d say I’m agnostic — so the idea of going to an AA meeting was scary. But what I found was nothing like what I imagined. AA at LCL is all about acceptance, community, and helping each other. There’s no judgment, only support. The facility itself is beautiful — cozy, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed. The beds are comfortable, and there are more than enough bathrooms to make everyone feel at home. The environment is peaceful, which made it easier to focus fully on recovery. The food deserves its own mention. They have an actual chef (love you, Bob!) who trained at the Culinary Institute of America. Every meal was absolutely delicious — far beyond what I ever expected from treatment food. The staff is what truly sets Little Creek apart. Every single person genuinely cares about the residents. My counselor, Steve, was tough on me — exactly the way I asked him to be — and he pushed me to face things I had avoided for years. It wasn’t easy, but it was exactly what I needed. I also want to give a huge shout out to Goose (yes, that’s his name!), Mason, Dane, Allen, Meg, Dongo, and so many others. The nurses were incredible as well — always attentive, compassionate, and supportive. Another surprise was the activities. I’ve never been a “nature” person, but somehow I loved every second of it. We did yoga, horseback riding, archery, hikes, go-karts, kayaking, and more. It made recovery not just about the difficult work, but also about rediscovering joy and trying new things. The lodge is small, which I think is one of its strengths. It maxes out at 17 guys, and during my month there we averaged around 10. That intimacy made it easier to build strong connections with both the staff and other residents. As a gay man, I was also nervous at first, but I never once felt out of place. Even though I was probably the only gay person there, I felt welcomed and supported by everyone. They still call me 5 months later to check in on me. Proud to say I’m now 160 days sober today. I am beyond grateful for my time at Little Creek Lodge. They gave me the tools, encouragement, and community I needed when I couldn’t find it anywhere else. If you or someone you love is struggling, this is the place to go.

Highly recommend this place if you or someone you know needs treatment as Little Creek cared for one of my loved ones recently and the experience was so heartfelt and comforting. From the staff to the food to the beautiful setting and lodge we couldn’t be happier with choosing Little Creek and can’t thank them enough.

I had been to multiple treatment centers and this last time it was suggested I give Little Creek a chance. This place changed and saved my life. It gave me the opportunity to build relationships with other men. Go out on adventure treks and learn how to have fun again. The food is incredible. It's extremely clean. I built relationships with people that I am still in contact with today. The groups were informative and gave me the tools i needed to be successful afterwards and the counseling sessions I had really opened my eyes in ways other places hadnt gotten me to consider before. And something else I feel is important to mention is that the staff doesn't treat you like a patient, they treat you like a peer. Most of them have been through the same things I was going through. Even after leaving I regularly stay in touch with a lot of them. I am proud to say I am Little Creek Alumni.

The Harvard of rehabs. Top notch staff, programming, meals and care. Little Creek Lodge fosters an excellent environment for healing, promoting camaraderie and brotherhood amongst clients through the various indoor and outdoor activities available on site. The Adventure Trek program offers various excursions including kayaking, rock climbing, fishing, disc golf and more, enhancing the bonding experience among both clients and staff. The fellowship built at Little Creek allows clients to feel included, safe, and secure so that they may be open, honest, and vulnerable with each other - the keystone of effective addiction treatment in my humble opinion. 10/10 would stay again if it didn't mean relapsing!

Little creek truly saved my life. Truly an amazing treatment center. The staff is amazing and they really care for and are there for you. Adventure treks help get you back into having fun in sobriety and Chef Bob will make sure you put a few pounds on with amazing food also! Thank you to all the amazing staff!
