About The Last Resort Recovery Center

The Last Resort Recovery Center is located on a 55 acre campus of rolling pastures in Austin, Texas. They’re CARF-accredited, and they offer mental health and substance use disorder treatment programs. This is a men-only treatment facility where they address issues that are specific to men. They offer a comprehensive list of services including inpatient (IP) and outpatient (OP) drug rehab treatment programs. They are in network with many major insurance companies.

The center treats most types of substance addictions, including alcohol, opiate, painkiller, heroin, meth, kratom, and polysubstance addiction. They have a detox program at the recovery center that offers medication assisted treatment. While going through the detox process, you’ll have access to support and evidence based treatments, including treatments for co-occurring disorders such as anxiety, depression, and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

While in the inpatient program, you’ll address the issues that led to your substance use. The issues could be external pressures such as a high stress career. They may also be from a co-occurring mental illness such as PTSD or depression. You’ll be in a safe environment to express your needs and vulnerabilities. You’ll have individual and group therapy, recreation therapy, and other activities for men. There are also experiential therapies, such as equine therapy where you work with horses.

The center has a partial hospitalization program (PHP) as continued support after inpatient treatment or if inpatient treatment isn’t the best option for your situation. The PHP is an intensive program you can attend while living at home or in a sober living arrangement. You’ll have access to all of the same types of therapy as you would as an inpatient.

Some of the therapies are especially helpful to men, such as rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT). This is a type of therapy that helps you identify your self sabotaging thoughts and replace them with rational, more helpful thinking patterns. The PHP offers accountability, recovery coaching, and a wellness program to help you on your sober journey.

If you’re dealing with an addiction but you can’t stop working or attending college, they have a regular outpatient program. No matter which program you choose, you’ll have continued care support through an aftercare program.

Terrible experience. They aren t open to people finding their own way to recover. Made me doubt myself in every way possibles the clinicians and recovery specialists are the last people you want guiding you to find your life back. I went there in 2023-2024 winter and am still recovering from the traumatic experience this place gave me. Not to mention they had someone who sexually harassed clients house managing their sober living and took weeks to fire him after being told about his behavior. This place is unprofessional and looks to prey on people who are uncertain of themselves to push their beliefs on and not accept anything other than perfection, even when they preach progress not perfection. This place should not be open.

The care and attention is great. You get access to an equine program, holistic work outs and yoga. The group goes to outings and meetings together. I highly recommend this as either a step down from inpatient or as a first step.

inpatient iconInpatient
Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

The person who was in charge of admission was very rude and impatient. When I mentioned I was not able to pay out of pocket, he did not provide any other solutions such as payment plan. What he did was say bye and then hang up.

The entire staff that worked with me were incredible. They all came from similar circumstances and were very knowledgeable. Most importantly, they cared about their work and the men they were working with. I was very impressed and gained what I needed to remain sober. Including some new friends. Thanks TLR!!

This place absolutely saved my life, if your a man struggling with alcohol or a drug addiction this resort is for you, really heavy 12-step based program for men with a massive 55 acres to roam freely on, not only is the recovery a must but the amenities this facility has to offer is phenomenal, with equine therapy and a clinical team that absolutely gave me a new perspective on what it takes to stay sober, and an entire new outlook on life, also the healing heart’s experience was a once in a lifetime experience I can’t even explain just how impactful everything I’ve learned from TLR has changed my life forever. I’m forever grateful for this place.

My friend found The Last Resort when he needed them the most. They have a knowledgeable, caring staff that takes sobriety seriously and gave him the ability to be in control of his life again. I can’t say enough positive things about them and I’m grateful they were able to help him learn how to maintain his sobriety.

TLR is one of the best treatment centers I ve been to on my journey to recovery. The staff are almost all in long term recovery themselves. Every staff member I had encountered had nothing but the truest desire to help and by staying clean and sober , they gave me hope when I was down and out, without a dollar to my name. They have a great step down programming and good sober living locations in South Austin. So grateful for this place.
