Unlike a hospital or institutional treatment center, Charlie's Place provides a unique environment for clients to focus on treatment. Its new facility located in a renovated hotel on IH-37 at McBride Lane in Corpus Christi provides an abundance of open area with large trees and shrubs where clients can take a stroll to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the grounds. It is an ideal place for reflecting and meditating.

More like a college campus than an institution or hospital, Charlie's Place is a recovery community with friendly staff, many of whom are in recovery themselves. Clients adjust to this environment easily, are more comfortable, and quickly feel a part of the community. Along with client living quarters, the expansive facility houses a central kitchen and cafeteria and a recreational area where clients enjoy activities like ping pong, foosball, pool, cards, board games, computers and big screen TV. Outside the rec area lies a large central courtyard with picnic tables for weekend BBQ's or for just socializing during free time.
