A Coastal Haven for Healing
Our beachside location offers a peaceful setting, fostering spiritual growth, accountability, and community support. The calming atmosphere of the ocean, combined with biblical principles, helps residents stay focused on their journey to recovery and renewal.
Our Unique Philosophy: Transparent, Self-Sustaining Recovery
Our philosophy is built on a simple, transparent principle: recovery thrives when men take full ownership of their lives without hidden fees or exploitation. Unlike traditional facilities that rely on costly medical overhead, vanity programs, or unpaid “work therapy,” Beach House Recovery is an affordable, self-sustaining community.
Residents pay a fair, transparent rate—funding our mission directly through their own hard work, reasonable rent, and responsible budgeting. We stand firmly against “bait and switch” operations that use residents for unpaid labor. By providing a safe, structured environment within walking distance of local employment, dining, and fellowship, we empower every man to become a self-supporting stakeholder in his own recovery.

FAQs
Space is limited at BHR and we ask new residents to pack sparsely. Our washer and dryer is easily accessible and we make frequent visits to local convenience and grocery stores. Personal items such as body wash, grooming, and linens are recommended but not required. We provide everything necessary for success in your first 28 days. Packing lightly will provide you the flexibility to assess what is actually important when you begin drawing a steady paycheck and shopping, usually within a few short weeks.
Yes, we consider self-support a vital aspect of recovery and you will be earning a fair wage to support yourself. When stable, all new residents will be assigned employment with a partner employer working alongside other BHR residents in a supportive local environment. All jobs are within walking distance and arranged by staff at local merchants and restaurants.
Beach House Recovery has an eight week“black out” probation period during which residents are required to participate solely in scheduled activities. In fact, new residents will not be admitted if outside requirements conflict with that commitment. Following release from probation, residents are free to pursue other activities and appointments on their own time at their own cost with their own resources.
Beach House Recovery has a primary responsibility to keep our campus free of potentially abused medications and focus specifically on recovery from addiction. If approved, your medication must be kept in your own possession and taken as prescribed. If you choose to pursue other medical services or therapy after the initial probation period, that will take place at your own expense on your own time. Our own CADC counselor Eugene Kaplan will be available to discuss your case, offer additional
counseling or make recommendations for outside care after your arrival.
Yes, within reason. We strongly support family interaction and we understand that many of us have elderly parents, sick relatives and apprehensive kids. We want to assist you with healthy ways to communicate and our staff is understanding of your situation as they were once in your shoes. However, we cannot support romantic contact or dating relationships outside marriage in early recovery so this is not an appropriate place to do so.
Our phase one building hosts a Food Bank of CENC pantry, a number of group meals throughout the week as well as a kitchen stocked around the clock with snacks and dairy. In addition, residents are offered access to Food Lion several times per week for personal shopping. You are free to consume anything available at no cost, do additional shopping at your own cost or a combination of both approaches.
For those not yet employed, the first requirement of the day is a meditation meeting at 7:30am, followed by a recovery book study at 8:30am, a spiritual study at 10am, an outside 12 step meeting at noon, a mixed media study at 3pm followed by an evening 12 step meeting around 8pm. This is a rough idea and you will find ample free time between commitments for meals and recreation. Each day looks a little different and weekends allow a little more free time.
