I was in true despair and was ready to throw it all away, everything I had worked so hard for, all of it, it was horrible. By chance we found this facility and it was exactly what I needed. I was ready and willing to do whatever it took to get myself back in order and La Ventana gave me the tools that are necessary to make that happen. The staff treated me like family and everyone on board is passionate about what they do. I was given the structure and encouragement I needed, they were patient with me and let me be myself. They absolutely went above and beyond for me and my family and I will be forever grateful to them. I'm so glad we found this facility and my new extended family. Thank you EVERYONE at La Ventana, we got this!!!

Please do your research before trusting this company with your time and money. I wish I had known…read morethis before coming here. They defrauded my insurance company by falsely charging for treatments I never got. Not only that when I wanted to discharge early I was told my insurance would not cover any of it. I stayed three weeks longer out of fear that I would have insane medical debt. Only to find out none of that is true. Three weeks of my life wasted... After this experience I did my research and come to find out this company has a history of using and abusing its employees and clients. Ranging from sexual misconduct to insurance fraud schemes. Here's a tidbit of history I wish I would have known: 2014 lawsuit: A female employee was fired by the owner for reporting her manager for sexual harassment. 2024 lawsuit: A female employee was fired by the owner for reporting a client for sexual harassment and raising safety concerns. 2024 lawsuit: The former CEO is suing the owner for sexual assault and battery. Allegedly he coerced her to perform sexual activities in exchange for monetary gain. The details of this case are quite disturbing.

I'm compelled to write this at the behest of 3 girls who are currently living there ( who prefer to…read moreremain anonymous), to introduce you to what a sober living environment should NOT be, and why this is so damaging to their sobriety as it causes resentments on a daily basis, something ' the program' is against. Also, I found out about this place from Summit Malibu ( see my review ) (incidentally, Some of the pictures on the website are not of the sober living but pictures from the owners actual residence. Also, we're not clear on one of the owners actual last name, who also shared with me that she pays her nephew to go to traffic school for her. So much for an Honest program). It sounds a little nit picky but, it all ads up. My one week there - The mens house has a ' flop house ' kinda vibe. The Oaks is comprised of 3 houses: Mens house, Womens House, Co-Ed house. Price per month: $2,500 per person. Slamming doors, loud people and strange behavior from residents, the managers and the owners abound. . 1 - Wreckless Endangerment The owners had us come to the beach (basically to watch the husband and wife owners of the 3 houses kite surf for the day) Afterwards we piled into the wife's new Tesla suv for her to return us to our respective houses. She proceeded to race through the nook and cranny roads that connect Malibu to the Thousand Oaks area, crossing the double yellow lines to pass traffic until getting on the 101 northbound freeway where she put the car in auto drive while texting at 80mph with a car filled with clients who have less than 20 days of sobriety ?!?! I had asked her NOT to drive like that. She made it sound like I can't handle fast speeds?? ( REALLY?) what of the lives of everyone in your new Tesla lady?? 2 - Public humiliation I wasn't feeling well and left the 7am mandatory AA meeting a few minutes early, minutes later the owner pulled into the driveway to yell at me in public in front of the girls and the entire neighborhood threatening to ' kick me out of the house' ( sober livings think they can simply kick people to street even after you've established residence by receiving mail at the location) which is illegal in the state of california but, don't tell them that. 3 - Car Accident The manager of the Womens sober living ( which for some reason is on the actual property of the owners) has been in 2 car accidents, endangering the lives of the clients in the vehicle. 4 - Fraternizing The male manager of the womens co-ed ( who later was simply transferred to manage the mens sober living as punishment ) was caught dating two of the girls in the girls house ( also caught kissing one of the clients in the driveway by the owners on one occasion). imagine if this was your daughter? Meds not safe 5 - new manager of the co-ed house (Darren) often forgets to lock the medications closet, leaving it wide open for anyone to have access. On 2 occasions he locked the keys inside of the medications locker only to be seen using a phillips screwdriver to take the lock off to get into the med closet which houses meds for over 9 people in that house. 6 - Levels ( very dangersous) In my over 20 years in the program I've never heard of Levels. typically if someone in the house relapses or is using, they're removed from the house and for good reason. it only takes one person to bring drugs/alcohol into the sober environment to bring the house down. At The Oaks, if you're caught drinking or using you get Levels, meaning: if you're caught using, and you're given a urine test, you have to bring the 'level' of use down to prove you're no longer using. (Levels also comes down to how much the owners like you - if you're liked - they'll let you stay - if they don't, they'll find any excuse to get rid of you and keep the reminder of your $2,500. Clients at risk for theft - the manager of the womens house confiscated a versachi purse from one of the wealthier women ( same manager who got into 2 car accidents with clients in the car.

Was taken off my debit card and posted immediately. Did not stay and was told I would get it right back, the n t day. Had to make my way home with no car from Ventura, Ca to Los Angeles... in the middle of the night, approx 3 hours from home.. Very bad situation. I call every few months and still haven't gotten my money back, it has been 7 months. I am a very physically disabled person currently approaching major back surgery, and really need this money back. Pax seemed nice, and I gave him the money, but as soon as he went home I was left to deal with staff members who were not less than savage, as they kept my money. I have called 12 times, have logged all of the calls, never a call back. They don't seem like compassionate people to be in the business of helping others. Atleast this was my experience

Walking through…read moretheir doors was one of the hardest things I've ever done -- and one of the best decisions of my life. I came in struggling with alcohol and feeling completely lost. Today, I'm sober, clear-headed, and genuinely excited about my future, and I owe so much of that to the staff here. From day one, the team at Wildwood made me feel seen and supported. They don't treat you like a number or a diagnosis -- they treat you like a person. The counselors are compassionate, knowledgeable, and real. They don't sugarcoat things, but they also don't judge you. They helped me understand my addiction, rebuild my confidence, and create a plan that actually works in the real world. The groups were powerful, the environment was peaceful, and the whole facility felt like a place where healing is actually possible. I learned tools here that I will use for the rest of my life, and I left with a level of hope I haven't felt in years. If you or someone you love is struggling with alcoholism, I can't recommend Wildwood Recovery enough. They changed my life -- truly -- and I'll always be grateful.

I've been in more sober livings than I'd like to admit. Good news I haven't needed to become a resident again and I now sponsor men. The house is beautiful. Mike is there for you and wants you to succeed. Sometimes that means following direction. Let's face it, me running the show wasn't going well. Colin is there for you on the couch after dinner for a good spiritual talk. His meals on Sundays are phenomenal. So good infact that I regularly return to the house on Sundays for "family dinners." I return to my old sober living because I want to, rather than need to. I look forward to seeing my friends at Archway every week. This is a perfect place to live if you're ready to grow up and take responsibility of your life. They're not going to baby sit you. They will drug test you.

I came into Yellowstone lost, confused, lacking structure and not a whole lot to show for my life. Within the short amount of time that I have been here I have gained so many things back I lost along with new knowledge and will of life and structure I never knew was possible. The accountability they hold you to is top tier In the instance of treatment centers and places to end up at. Each and every single person here cares about one another's well being. It really is a ranch family when living here who cook together and clean together and attend outings together regularly . The amount of laughs I have had in this house hold will last a life time. The best part I have to say about being at Yellowstone ranch is that most places these days are all about the business and money. The owners here really do strive to keep young adults alive and safe and sober and building life skills to take into the real world first before all else. The type of care that they offer here is one in 1 million and nothing like I have ever seen before. I have been too many different sober living's worked in many treatment places, but you will not find another place like this one. The house is beautiful and very clean in the beautiful city of Moorepark. You really can't beat the views from this place. It gives you a lot of time to really think and enjoy the beauty of the world it has to offer. We do recover! Thank you, Yellowstone Ranch!
