My son was at Borden Cottage for an addiction to opiates. The staff and care were top notch, as were the facility and nutritional meals. He has been home for two weeks and is doing pretty well. I highly recommend Borden Cottage.
Everything was better than expected. The only thing I did not find helpful was that I had a new therapist every 2 months. Strengths: Community and support from others is a strength. Athletic, wilderness, and holistic activities as well. Weaknesses: Not much structure to many aspects, though that always comes with having freedom within a program. Foundation House is not for people looking for a very disciplined, structured program.
staff was excellent. Some had been in treatment there themselves years ago. Not being able to go outside was an issue. Having nothing to do but sit around during the day waiting for groups.
