At Riverfront Recovery, we provide inpatient alcohol rehab in Georgia designed for individuals ready to break free from alcohol addiction in a safe and supportive environment.
Nestled along the scenic Hiawassee River, our residential program combines evidence-based therapies, medical care, and holistic healing.
Unlike large, crowded facilities, Riverfront is intentionally intimate, with a census of no more than 30 patients — ensuring each person receives the personalized attention they need.
Choosing an inpatient program allows you to step away from the stressors, triggers, and routines that feed alcohol dependence. At Riverfront Recovery, patients gain access to 24/7 care, a community of support, and a structured path toward sobriety. Families from across the United States choose our program for its unique balance of clinical excellence and natural healing environment.
Patients can expect comfortable accommodations, chef-prepared meals, and a community that feels more like a retreat than a hospital. Daily schedules blend therapeutic groups, one-on-one sessions, recreational activities, and opportunities for reflection in the natural surroundings. Every detail — from group sizes to individualized treatment planning — is designed to create the best possible environment for sustainable recovery.

At Riverfront Recovery, we understand that alcohol addiction is not just a physical struggle—it impacts every part of a person’s life. Our treatment approach is designed to address the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. We combine evidence-based therapies with a supportive, healing environment to help each individual build a sustainable path to recovery.
Every patient’s story is unique, which is why we never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Upon admission, our clinical team conducts a thorough assessment to create a customized treatment plan that may include:
Detox is often the first step in alcohol addiction treatment, and at Riverfront Recovery, we make sure it’s done with safety, dignity, and compassion. Our medical team carefully monitors patients to ease withdrawal symptoms and reduce health risks, while also providing emotional support during this challenging phase. By starting treatment with a medically supervised detox, patients can enter the therapeutic process with a clearer mind and stronger body, ready to engage in deeper healing.
Every person’s journey into alcohol addiction is different, which is why our one-on-one therapy sessions are tailored to uncover the unique factors driving each patient’s drinking. Using evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care, our therapists work to identify underlying causes and help patients build healthier coping strategies. These private sessions provide a safe space to process emotions, challenge negative thought patterns, and create a foundation for long-term recovery.
Connection is a powerful antidote to addiction. Our group therapy sessions bring patients together in a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where they can share experiences, learn from one another, and build accountability. Facilitated by experienced clinicians, groups focus on practical recovery skills, relapse prevention strategies, and mutual encouragement. Patients often find that hearing from peers who are facing similar struggles helps them feel less isolated and more motivated to change.
Addiction affects not only the individual but also their loved ones. At Riverfront Recovery, we believe family healing is essential for long-term success. Our family therapy sessions and educational programs help relatives understand the nature of addiction, develop healthier communication patterns, and rebuild trust. We guide families in setting boundaries while also equipping them with tools to support their loved one’s recovery journey. When families heal together, patients are more likely to thrive after treatment.
Lasting recovery involves more than just addressing alcohol use—it means healing the whole person. That’s why we incorporate holistic therapies such as mindfulness meditation, yoga, fitness classes, and nutritional guidance into our programs. These practices reduce stress, improve physical health, and teach patients how to reconnect with themselves in positive ways. By combining clinical treatment with holistic care, we empower patients to restore balance and find healthier outlets for coping with life’s challenges.
Our campus is intentionally designed to create peace, comfort, and safety. With a maximum of 30 patients, Riverfront Recovery ensures every individual receives personal attention in an environment free of chaos and overcrowding. Patients have space to reflect, heal, and focus fully on recovery.
Recovery doesn’t end at discharge. We partner with community resources, 12-step programs, and therapeutic providers to help patients transition smoothly into the next phase of life. Each aftercare plan is tailored to support long-term sobriety and continued growth.
At Riverfront Recovery, we don’t just treat alcohol addiction—we help people rediscover who they are and create a life they can be proud of.
Absolutely amazing program! I’ve never been shown so much love and understanding anywhere. Riverfront wasn’t a treatment center to me , it was a life changing experience that gave me a chance to connect with myself.
