About Whispering Oaks Lodge

Our plan when we began mapping out the physical space and the inner workings of our programs was to bring forward a more relaxed environment that would foster our client’s desire to get better. Too often we have seen individuals that need and want help being boxed into rigid environments with stressful approaches to treatment that end up pushing them further away from overcoming their substance use disorder. Whispering Oaks Lodge provides an alternative approach that we believe will change lives for the better.

By design, Whispering Oaks Lodge is a destination for relaxation and wellness; a true southern oasis, spanning 18 acres, nestled among beautiful oak trees and a glistening, 3-acre fishing pond stocked with bass, bream, catfish, and white perch. From the porch swings to the stables, every detail breathes good ol’ southern hospitality. And of course, it wouldn’t be Louisiana without authentic Cajun cuisine.

Whispering Oaks Lodge

What Our Patients Say About Us

Great

To be honest it was great! I learned so much there as an adult it was crazy. Mr Dwayne and Mr Darren knows there stuff trust me by far. And I can't say enough for Mr Mark who you will meet at the door, solid dude. My counselors and associates whom I love and were the rock of my treatment, and the the medical staff and the after hours people, and the food awesome!!! Plus the fact you can fish, hit golf balls on the range, watch movies, have your phone as long you were not in meetings. Packed kitchen at all times, and the beloved Louie the dog! But it was more than that it was the way you were treated by everyone in a natured environment and that reciprocated through the people you were in treatment with. Big fan. Recommend it to anyone who is looking for the right help.

New Beginning

If you need help...this is an incredible place to begin the life of discovery/recovery.

Thankful

I want to thank the counselors and staff for tolerating the attitude and still delivering a sound and useful message toward my recovery, as patients we do not enter this facility with good judgment and reasoning. Thank you for your patience! I have been sober for 3 years

This is the place you’re looking for. You are treated as an adult and still have your freedoms. The gates are open so you’re free to leave but I’m willing to bet if you come with an open mind and heart you won’t want to. If you’re wanting help and looking for a beautiful place for you to look inside and work on what’s necessary to get sober, this is it. The staff truly cares about you and your sobriety. I wasn’t really excited about coming here, because who really wants to go to treatment, but I now feel that I have a second home.

Whispering Oaks was a life-changing experience for me. I didn't expect to have such a blast while learning and growing. The counselors were phenomenal, providing heartfelt and individualized guidance. The sense of belonging and support from the other peers was remarkable. I stayed longer than planned and still miss the place!!!

This is by far the best recovery center in Louisiana As with all of them, you won't want to come, can't wait to leave, but here only you don't want to leave. The environment , atmosphere, food, and being treated with trusted freedom is the best. You learn so much about yourself, which counselors are on point, to help you deal and cope with life issues, which I have never done properly before or knew how. Great staff hands down. Very friendly environment. People like me. It completely changed my life for the better. Sober 18 months . Life is great. This is where you want to come. Loved it here.
