Sober Living Near Brentwood, CA - Men's Recovery Housing
Why Brentwood Residents Choose Solstice Recovery for Sober Living
Brentwood sits at the base of the Santa Monica Mountains, offering quiet streets, outdoor spaces, and a slower pace than much of Los Angeles. For men working to rebuild their lives in sobriety, this kind of environment matters.
Our Culver City facility is just 15 minutes south of Brentwood. That proximity means you can tap into the Westside's recovery community, job market, and wellness resources while living in a home built around structure, accountability, and brotherhood.

Mens Sober Living Recovery Programs
-
Clinical Accountability and Daily Structure
Every resident follows a structured daily framework that includes staff check-ins, random drug screenings, mandatory 12-step attendance, and weekly group sessions. This consistent rhythm builds the discipline and habits that sustain long-term sobriety.
-
Connections to Professional Treatment
Recovery often requires more than one layer of support. We coordinate with outpatient programs, detox facilities, individual therapists, family counselors, and psychiatrists to ensure each resident receives the specific care they need.
-
A Home That Feels Like Home
Solstice House was designed with recovery in mind. Shared bedrooms encourage community. Common areas such as the game room and outdoor patio provide residents with space to decompress. Breakfast and lunch supplies, Wi-Fi, laundry, and climate control take care of the essentials so you can focus on what matters most.

Building a Life You Can Sustain
Sobriety is the starting point, not the finish line. We work alongside each resident to support job searches, budgeting, educational goals, and the practical skills needed to thrive independently after they leave our program.

The BEST sober living in LA. Eric, the owner, is one of the kindest and most respectful people I have ever met in my recovery. Definitely a very solid environment, only the best!

“We are very glad our son found this sober living. He’s felt a good balance between freedom, boundaries and structure favorable for his recovery. We are grateful that the owner cares about his clients and offers them an opportunity to be in a safe home where they can focus on sobriety. Our son has been at over 5 homes and this is the first time he has felt a good fit. He has been able to form a community within and voluntarily goes to meetings. Solstice has been a positive experience.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Sober Living Near Brentwood
How far is Solstice Recovery from Brentwood?
About 6 miles, or roughly 15 minutes by car. You can take the 405 south or drive surface streets through West LA. Bus routes and the Metro E Line also connect both neighborhoods.
Why do Brentwood-area men choose Solstice Recovery?
Our Culver City location is close enough to maintain existing Westside connections, such as sponsors, therapists, and home groups, while providing the structured, men-only environment that supports early recovery. The short distance means you're not uprooting your life to get the help you need.
What does a typical day look like?
Mornings start with house responsibilities and personal routines. From there, residents attend 12-step meetings, go to work or school, and participate in house programming. Evenings often include group sessions, fellowship, or personal downtime. The schedule provides structure while leaving room for individual recovery plans.
How long should I plan to stay?
We recommend a minimum of 90 days to establish strong habits and a support network. Most residents stay between 6 and 12 months. There is no maximum stay as long as you're following the program.
Do you help with job searches?
Yes. We assist with resume building, job search strategies, and connecting residents with employers on the Westside and throughout LA. Many residents find work in Culver City, Brentwood, Santa Monica, and Playa Vista.
Can family members visit?
Visitors are welcome during designated hours. Everyone who visits must be approved in advance and remain sober on the premises.
What if someone relapses?
Honesty is the first requirement. We evaluate each situation individually. In some cases, a resident may need to complete detox or a treatment program before returning to the house.
How is sober living different from rehab?
Rehab typically involves intensive, short-term clinical treatment in a controlled setting. Sober living is the next step. Residents at Solstice maintain jobs, attend meetings, and practice daily independence while living in a supportive, substance-free home. It bridges the gap between treatment and a fully independent life.
