Recreational programs and activities are incorporated into the A Home Away retreat experience. Addiction affects all aspects of the mind, body and spirit. Recovery, therefore, optimally includes fun, recreational activities, as you would experience at other resorts.
Our philosophy is that life is to be enjoyed. It is exciting to experience physical activity and to have fun being clean and sober!
Activities are chosen, with guest input, that are suited to the interests, abilities, and skills of the guests. Our recreation days are full, varied, stimulating, and, most importantly, fun.
