Harbor House

In 1927, Migdale Castle in the tony New York suburb of Millbrook was completed for Margaret Carnegie Miller, the only child of Andrew Carnegie. It offers unparalleled woodland and Catskill Mountain views; the estate was modeled after Carnegie’s Skibo Castle in Scotland. Today, one of Duchess County’s largest and most well-appointed mansions is now on the market. Love the impact you are making and the relationships you are building with just time, a kitchen and acceptance.

Harbor House, a supporter of Sober House Directory, builds sober home communities where residents are supported in their recovery journeys. Harbor House sees a world where every person in recovery has access to a supportive, healthy, and safe home environment built on respect, focused on recovery, and lead by peers. Residents live together as a family to develop the tools and strengthen their character in order to live free from substance abuse. These homes allow for independence while guided by a set of Harbor House recovery-focused house rules, standards, and expectations.

Just because we may dump too much cinnamon in an apple turnovers doesn’t mean we aren’t “good enough”; we just let it go and move forward. I want them to feel at ease when trying something new. I don’t want them to be tense with feelings of pressure to do it the “right” way or feel shame if they do it “wrong”.

Boston Area Structured and Supportive Sober Living- Starting at $3500 per month (Mens)

I am honored to be able to observe their personal development. I see stiff bodies, hunched shoulders, reluctance, doubt and vacant stares, at first. Then I see vulnerability, acquiescence and participation.

Insights from the community

“Yes, I said, I am a recovered bulimic.” How lovely to just be able to share the secret of my past like it was no big deal…so refreshing. Cooking with “my guys” at Harbor House fills me with energy, hope and optimism. Last night we blanched, squeezed and finely chopped six bags of spinach to mix with ricotta, Parmesan and nutmeg.

Some guys come naturally to working with dough, while others are more comfortable with a knife. The next blunt question was “Are you recovered”? I wish the rest of the population was this honest, direct, real and open!

Sober living home information is provided by sober house operators. We try to provide current information but cannot monitor every recovery home listing and do not guarantee the accuracy of listings. Sober House Directory is a helpful starting place to find a recovery home and includes listings for sober houses, recovery residences, structured group homes, and other sober living for men and women in recovery. At Harbor House, a custom approach to each client is taken, starting with a full understanding of each client’s needs. Their team connects with each client’s clinical providers to help understand what supports are needed before he arrives at Tharros.

We were founded jointly by Harbor House, an operator of sober houses in Massachusetts, and Vanderburgh Communities, an organization supporting sober living and recovery home operators. We’re expanding across the United States as our resources permit! If you would like to add a listing to our sober house directory, please let us know.
