This is a great place to find a recovery. It's beautiful, it's nice, you get a lot of one-on-one attention, they buy all organic food and really care about you as a patient. You're treated like a human being not like a criminal. You're not packed in with a bunch other people. It's quiet peaceful the grounds are beautiful. There's a nice pool and daily exercise if you want....It's a very high-quality place, quality recovery and the price is very reasonable.
