Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Men; Women's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery is a Level IV Type C clinical recovery residence on Depot Street in Ball Ground, Georgia, in Cherokee County. It sits on a fifty-acre campus roughly an hour north of Atlanta and offers a full continuum of care, from medical detox through residential treatment and continuing care, for men and women.

Clinical Recovery Housing at Level IV

GARR's Level IV Type C tier is its clinical designation, reserved for residences that combine housing with licensed treatment services on site instead of referring residents elsewhere for care. Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery fits that model directly: detox, residential treatment, partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programming all run out of the same campus.

What Clinical Certification Adds

Beyond GARR certification, the program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities and certified by SAMHSA, two national bodies that layer additional standards on top of Georgia's own voluntary certification. That combination is uncommon among the state's Level IV programs and gives a family several external records to check at once.

A Veterans Program on a Fifty-Acre Campus

The Cherokee County campus includes a dedicated veterans track alongside its general clinical programming, plus family care services and a continuing care program for residents after discharge. Space on fifty acres in the Blue Ridge foothills gives the program room for a fuller continuum than a converted house in a city neighborhood could support.

Recovery Housing in Cherokee County
