Nowlen Manor Women's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Nowlen Manor is a women's sober living home in Mentor, Ohio, in Lake County, operated by Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers. It opened in December 2016 as the organization's first recovery house for women, on a tree-lined residential street in the city.

A Women's Sober House in Mentor

Nowlen Manor was Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers' first recovery home built specifically for women, and it remains a women-only residence within the organization's broader housing program. The house sits within reach of shopping, churches, a library, and public transportation, the kind of everyday infrastructure that matters most to a resident rebuilding a routine without a car.

Part of a CARF-Accredited Recovery Program

Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers has provided addiction treatment and recovery housing since 1971 and holds accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities. Nowlen Manor operates as one residence within that larger nonprofit rather than as an independent program, giving residents access to the organization's outpatient and psychiatric services alongside housing.

Recovery Housing in Lake County

Mentor is Lake County's largest city, and Nowlen Manor's residential setting keeps residents close to the county's job market, outpatient providers, and Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers' own Mentor office. That proximity matters for women coordinating housing, treatment, and work in the same stretch of the county.

Applying to Nowlen Manor

Admission runs through Lake-Geauga Recovery Centers. The organization operates on a sliding fee scale and accepts Medicaid and Medicare, so applicants should ask about cost directly rather than assume the program is out of reach.
