About this Recovery House

A Twenty-Bed Men's Sober House in Parkersburg

Twenty beds makes this one of the larger certified men's residences in the Mid-Ohio Valley. A house this size holds men at every stage of a stay, which means a new arrival always has someone a few months ahead of him to measure against. 13th Street sits in Parkersburg's residential grid within reach of the downtown core and the Ohio River flats.

Seventy-Five Dollars a Week

A non-refundable $100 entry fee applies at move-in, and the ongoing charge is $75 a week. That is among the lowest published rates for certified recovery housing in West Virginia. In a region where wages run below the state average and the alternative is often unregulated rooming housing, price is not a detail.

What Level 2 Certification Establishes

Level 2 describes monitored recovery housing with structured expectations, where clinical services come from providers elsewhere in the city. Certification requires written fee and rule disclosure before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, a published code of ethics, and complaints reviewed outside the house. West Virginia has tied state referrals and public funding to certification since 2024.

Parkersburg and the Mid-Ohio Valley

Parkersburg is the seat of Wood County and West Virginia's third-largest city, sitting where the Little Kanawha meets the Ohio River across from Belpre, Ohio. It holds the county courthouse, Camden Clark Medical Center, West Virginia University at Parkersburg and the employment base for Wirt, Ritchie, Pleasants and Jackson counties. For a man rebuilding a working life, that concentration is the reason to be housed in the city.
