Discovery Point Retreat at a glance

Google reviewers rate Discovery Point Retreat 4.6 out of 5 based on 256 reviews, with the owner responding to every comment. Positive feedback frequently highlights the consistent daily structure, supportive staff, quality food, and amenities like a pool and gym that aid in recovery. However, low-star reviews identify recurring issues regarding communication, including unreturned messages from clinical leadership and blocked contact with family members despite signed releases. Additional criticisms involve discrepancies between advertised insurance coverage and actual billing practices, as well as concerns about the frequency of individual therapy sessions during residential stays.

The structure helped me in my recovery process. Each day the program stayed consistent which helped me learn the needed skills for my recovery. The accommodations were good for example the food was excellent. Had ample amount of free time to help individualize each clients program. They provided all the resources needed for my recovery and the process groups were insightful and supportive. I also formed healthy connections creating a positive network for myself moving forward. I highly recommend DPR Wax to anyone who is serious about their recovery.
