About The Last Resort
Set on a secluded 55-acre ranch just outside Austin, The Last Resort helps men step forward in confidence and pursue lasting recovery from addiction and co-occurring mental health concerns. Their men’s-only program combines medical detox, residential treatment, outpatient support, 12-Step immersion, clinical care, and ranch-based experiences in a setting built to equip men with brotherhood, accountability, and practical tools for long-term growth.
Work Through Addiction and Real-Life Struggles
The Last Resort helps men look beyond substance use to the real-life struggles, trauma, stress, relationships, and mental health concerns that can keep addiction in motion. Individual therapy, family work, relapse prevention, 12-Step immersion, and trauma-focused care help clients build honesty, repair connection, and practice new responses to pressure, while equine therapy, mindfulness, and fitness support healing from the inside out.
Find Space to Heal on a Texas Ranch
Clients step away from everyday stressors on a peaceful horse ranch in Smithville, where grazing horses, open pastures, hiking trails, and quiet rural surroundings create room for reflection and healing. An outdoor swimming pool, fitness studio, nutrition support, and equine therapy help men rebuild routines, while business professionals and students may manage select work or school responsibilities in an on-site computer lab with team approval.
Build Recovery for the Long Haul
The Last Resort supports men beyond residential treatment through outpatient care, sober living connections, alumni programming, peer mentorship, check-ins, sober events, retreats, continued therapy, and relapse prevention. Their continuum helps clients carry the structure of the ranch into everyday life, with Austin-based outpatient support and recovery community connections available as men strengthen relationships, work, and long-term stability.
