The Serenity Club Men's Sober House

About this Sober House

The Serenity Club is a men's sober house in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, in Hardin County. The house sits on South Main Street in the center of the city, which is also the Hardin County seat.

A Men's Sober House on South Main Street

The Serenity Club serves men in recovery, and a downtown Main Street location puts a resident within walking distance of much of what Elizabethtown has to offer, including the Hardin County courthouse, local churches and the retail core of the city. A single-gender house keeps meetings, bathrooms and common space consistent for everyone living there under one roof.

Kentucky's Certification Law for Sober Living Homes

Kentucky is unusual among states in making certification of recovery residences mandatory by law. House Bill 248 established the requirement in 2023, and House Bill 462 backed it with penalties in 2024, along with a rule that bars courts, state agencies and behavioral health providers from referring anyone to housing that is not certified. The Kentucky Recovery Housing Network handles certification on behalf of the Kentucky Alliance of Recovery Residences, and it is the first thing worth confirming about any Elizabethtown sober house under consideration.

Recovery Housing in Elizabethtown and Hardin County

Elizabethtown anchors Hardin County in central Kentucky and sits a short drive from Fort Knox, one of the U.S. Army's major installations. That proximity shapes the local recovery landscape, since providers in the area routinely work with veterans and military families alongside civilian residents. Elizabethtown's role as the county seat also gives it the courts, hospitals and outpatient care that smaller Hardin County towns rely on.

What to Confirm Before Applying to This Sober House

Contact for The Serenity Club goes directly to whoever manages the house. The questions worth asking match what Kentucky's certification law is designed to guarantee an answer to: whether the house is currently KRHN certified, what the weekly fee covers, whether a manager lives on site, and what the house's policy is if a resident relapses.
