Pennsylvania Alcohol and Drug Rehab Center - Little Creek Lodge
Little Creek Lodge is a residential program for adult males seeking recovery from chemical
addiction. Little Creek is located in the beautiful Pocono Mountains of northeast Pennsylvania. It is custom built and designed specifically for the resident. We believe a sober lifestyle takes hard work, but should also be fun and meaningful. Little Creek Lodge is nestled on 13 acres of serenely wooded property. It is a 9,000 square foot Adirondack style building which was completed in June of 2008. The upper level consists of 9 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, stone fireplace, living room and dinning area. The lower level consists of a large group meeting room, a workout gym with treadmill, elliptical trainer, spin bike, free weights and smith universal. There is also a pool table and air hockey table for recreation.
Residents are expected to commit to a 90-day stay. What sets Little Creek Lodge aside from other residential care programs is the individual attention and personal care each resident is given. With the best in-house care and the incredible experience of wilderness expeditions, our program is diversified in its approach. Little Creek holds only 18 residents. This allows us to give special attention to the needs and concerns of each person entering our program. We are dedicated to bring out the best in each resident and create challenges that promote lasting change. We are focused on engaging the mind, body, and spirit of each resident in a comprehensive manner for balanced living in the real world. Building a new life takes a firm commitment, and we are here to help guide you in that process. Through education, group sessions, mountain expeditions and 12-step meetings, our residents engage in a mental, physical and spiritual experience which is essential to long term recovery.
