The owls nest saved my girl friends life,it turned her life around completely,she is new born and living life as she has never known it. Thank you all so much .the experience was a life saver for her.

I'm from NC and by 20 years old I had been to 3 detox facilities and a treatment center that offered solutions to my problem that I just couldn't and wouldn't cling on to. I would stay clean and sober for a few months and go right back to my drink/drug. I would make friends inside and outside of the program that weren't serious about working a program that will lead us (alcoholics/addicts) to a new way of life. We never have to use again no matter what situation is placed in front of us, there is a solution to those things outside of drugs/alcohol. I was at a point before coming here that I had accepted I was going to die from a drug overdose and that was going to be my impact on the community. People were going to learn about the disease of addiction through my death from drugs. I'm now 23 years old and recently completed the program at The Owls Nest about a month ago, I've never experienced a place or a fellowship so strong in recovery than The Owls Nest. I'm now almost 4 months clean and I was that hopeless variety that was so lost in their addiction that there was no use. But through this place and the solution they offer here, I have another chance at life away from alcohol/drugs. If you're reading this and you're battling this war on drugs then give this place a call and take that first step in saving your life. It works, it really does, just pick up the phone. I owe this place my life.

It's sad seeing negative reviews from family members of addicts on google. I am a family member of an addict who went through this program an it was Amazing! He is a new man! They speak truth here! My loved one was in another rehab an if you think this rehab is bad and "dirty", you don't know the true meaning of bad or dirty. This place is the ritz compared to most rehabilitation centers I've seen, an as far as the store being "overpriced". You do realize that helps them be able to provide for the people there. You can't rely on the government for everything, another note. This is one of the less expensive places for rehabilitation. Do some research! This place saved my loved one's life an i hope an pray everyone struggling with addiction could come to a place like this! If you want truth, light an a good solid foundation with the instruments to get back on your feet, this is the best place!!! If i could I'd give them a million stars!

If you or a loved one who suffers from addiction please contact Owls Nest. Owls Nest has been a life changing experience for our son. From the moment my son arrived at Owl’s he was made to feel welcome by the counselors, staff and residents. My son was extremely ill due to his alcoholism when he arrived at Owls Nest. Our son embraced the 12 step program, has regained his self confidence and has grown a person in a short period of time. Today our son is sponsoring other residents at Owls Nest and helping them work towards completing the 12 step program. The counselors and staff are truely amazing and wonderful.

I owe this place my life not only did they teach me how to be a part of society again but they showed me how to live. I was not only afraid of dying but I did not want to live the life I was living they... there aren't enough words that could explain how much I loved it here, the staff is so great and I keep intouch with everyone there to this day and they make me feel like I'm home every time I am on property to say hello. I love all of you and I would recommend this place to anyone 😊

This place saved my life. Literally opened my eyes to see how selfish I was. That I put drugs and alcohol before everything. I've learned that I can't do this without God. And the blessings in my life today are amazing. And I'm very great full for the people and staff at the Owls Nest!!

The Owls Nest taught me the 12 steps of AA The way it was ment to be. I learned to be humble and to forgive my self for my past life. And that I can now be service to others and share this way of life with people struggling with addiction.I am grateful for the Owls Nest and it's staff for helping me have a life again!

I came to The Owls Nest completely broken & ready to give up. And today, I cannot begin to express the gratitide I have for The Owls Nest. I have been to numerous treatment facilities in the past & it was always the same packets being gone over, but never actually learning how to go from the problem to the solution. As soon as I arrived at The Owls Nest I knew I was right where I needed to be & not only the staff, but the residents as well were more than welcoming & have made this place home for me! I will forever be grateful for the friendships I have made here & for actually being able to learn how to finally live life, happy, without the use of drugs & alcohol. I can finally build my relationships back with my sons & my family. Thank you to all the staff at The Owls Nest who not only believed in me, but loved me until I could love myself again. This place is not just another treatment center, its home!

This place as sincerely saved my life, hands down. I was a full blown heroin junkie with no hope of life before I came here. This place is built on love, and held together by fellowship. This place is unlike any other treatment facility, it teaches you not only how to be free of the obsession of alcohol and drug addiction, but how to be free of resentments, fear, and live a productive life. Recovery is about RECOVERING, not about food, beds, etc. I would be dead if it wasn't for this place, and the same can be said for dozens of my friends who came through, even having been through dozens of rehabs. I have friends for life because of this place. Originally from Ohio, I stayed in Florence because of the strong foundation and fellowship that is here. I owe everything to this place and the staff, people who truly care.

My friend worked their and says this place has one of the best recovery programs she has ever seen!

This isn't about the food or the facility, it's not a resort. The OWL'S NEST saved my daughter's life. THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME BACK MY PRECIOUS DAUGHTER. She was helpless and losing her battle against her addiction. I am sure without the OWL'S NEST we might have lost her completely. God bless you all.

Once we realize and understand that drugs and alcohol were but symptoms of our real problem, we can live life successfully without them. Thanks for the knowledge

Addiction has impacted my life to the point of insanity, death, and destruction. I am a chronic relapser. I have always held onto the hope that someday I would find the true inner peace and serenity that I thought I found in drugs but always seemed to elude me . After countless stays in numerous state-funded detoxes and rehab facilities my Mother discovered The Owl's Nest. They specialized in assisting chronic relapsers and promised a new way to live in hope by working and practicing The Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. I am a heroin and pill addict and at first I was reluctant to accept AA was going to help me. But The Owl's Nest staff themselves are all recovering addicts and alcoholics and made me feel right at home. I finally felt like someone understood me and I wasn't just a lab rat being examined by a big brained Dr. with a wall degree. There is something really special about The Owl's Nest Recovery Community. It could be the fact it's a community of recovering people I can honestly call my Brothers and Sisters, The Twelve Steps, the powerful workshops I attend, the quaint forest setting or the acceptance I am finally feeling in my life. Ultimately when all is said and done all of those special qualities melt and blend together into that peace and serenity I had always searching for. Thank you Owl's Nest for giving me and my family a chance to live, grow and finally smile again. There's no amount of money or material possession that could even compare to seeing my Mother stand proud of what her daughter has accomplished by staying clean and finally being happy.

I cried the day I dropped my son off at the Owls Nest. After weeks of searching for a recovery center that had a good success rate, was affordable and staff presented a reasonable perspective of the situation I was referred to the Owls Nest by his college fraternity. It was meant to be. My initial contact was with Lindsay and I probably called her 10 times with various questions before making the commitment and she was always very patient with me. On arrival we were met by 2 young men that sensed my anxiety and did their best to offer encouragement for a sober future. It would take work but my son was searching for help with his addiction and although sad I left there hopeful. It's a peaceful and pleasant campus though I suspect with group living it has its share of drama. No different than any other communal environment. They offer a comfort food menu and my son would say that some days were better than others depending on the cook. He has an occasional complaint but nothing that ever concerned me. After all this was not a vacation resort and he was there to heal and be provided the "tools" to get through life clean and sober. I find that he has learned to better analyze situations and behaviors and to evaluate healthy options. He is now 6 months sober, appears to be more at peace with himself and the happiest I have seen him in many, many years. I would be remiss in not expressing thanks to the staff that has helped, supported and encouraged along the way. Scott, Jeffrey, Ms. Ann, Ms. Bobbie, Gene, and countless others whose names escape me. The Owls Nest saved his life and I am grateful.

I dropped my girlfriend and so far the service has been very good. Every time I call to check on her no matter what time of day I get a live person. Thank you again for all your help. Semper Fi

I owe the Owl's Nest a debt I can never repay. Their program and staff not only saved my life, but gave me the opportunity to not only have a sober future, but a happy and prosperous one for myself and for my family. I came to the Owl's Nest a broken, hopeless, and empty woman. I couldn't imagine my life with or without drugs and alcohol. I wanted to be sober, but I didn't know how. I didn't know what was wrong with me. Treatment centers in the past may have helped me stay sober for a short time, but gave me no solution to stay sober. The Owl's Nest taught the program of Alcoholics Anonymous in a way that I had never experienced before. By taking me through my 12 steps the way the founders intended when the book was written, I got a foundation for how to recover from my addiction, and how to become a better person and a functional member of society. Because of this program, the staff of fellow addicts and alcoholics, and the amazing experiences I had with my fellow residents, I now love the person I see in the mirror. I have no doubt that I have been given the tools to stay sober, and I am forever grateful to the Owl's Nest for that.
