River’s
Mission

Becoming part of River Sober Living has been one of the best decisions of my life. It provided me with the accountability, structure, and environment I needed to right my ship. Management is generous and understanding of those in need of help living a productive and sober life. The houses are clean and the people are supportive. You will find all the tools and opportunities a person can ask for when looking for a better way of living.

Thank you! For creating a safe Sober living environment for those working the steps to become rehabilitated, I can honestly say the opportunity to be a part of such a amazing sober living experience. The Homes are by far amazing and the expectations and standards expected and demonstrated by Sober living are by far outstanding. Thank you all for setting the golden standards to help support recovery 🙏. Thank you for the opportunity.

I have worked with River Sober Living on numerous occasions to get clients into a sober living that supports growth in recovery. The partnership, collaboration, and care River has shown has truly set them apart in the community. The houses are beautiful and the passion to help is amazing. Thank you for what you do!

I was fortunate enough to find a spot at River Sober Living when I graduated from Northpoint Recovery's in-patient program. I needed a transition period before returning home with my wife and daughter, and River Sober Living was perfect! River also helped me course correct when I had a relapse. The two experiences at River were the same for me... It's a beautiful clean home with welcoming men all doing their best to practice a strong life in recovery. Management is great at working with your unique situation as long as you communicate. There's comradery, humor, and a nice balance of structure and freedom. I had my family over and it easily became a second home to them until I returned. Consider yourself blessed if you have the opportunity to call this place your home for a season.

My experience at River Sober Living house has been nothing but life-changing. I came into the house a broken man looking for a positive situation to help me on the right path, and I found that and more. I have made lifelong friends in recovery, and the accountability that the house has created has been everything I have needed to be successful. If you are considering a sober living environment for yourself or a loved one, River Sober Loving is the best place for a fresh start.

River Sober Living has been vital in my recovery from substance abuse. River holds the highest standard of cleanliness, empathy, and growth in their homes. Grateful to be a part of their impact.

I work in the addiction recovery industry in Utah and have had the pleasure of inspecting these sober living homes. The property is very clean and comfortable and the environment appears to be very positive and supportive. If I had a family member or close friend in need of sober living, this would be the only place I would recommend in the Boise area. I would even recommend it nationwide simply because the owner is "hands-on" and is deeply committed to supporting his community.

River sober living is a life-changing environment. I went from detox to stability. Without River I wouldn't be alive today. It is a cohesive and therapeutic environment for those that really want to be sober. If you want to get off of the bottle, this is the place.

River Sober Living is bringing something unique to the Treasure Valley in terms of recovery and sober living. Brandt is determined and it shows in his close work with the community. Keep fighting the good fight!

Description goSuch a huge asset to our local community as a whole. Housing & supporting Boise area fathers, sons, grandfathers, uncles, & friends all the while treating them like family.es here

As a treatment provider I refer many clients to River and I am impressed. Clean. Structured.

I can’t thank River Sober Living enough. It helped me transition back into the real world. River gave me the support I needed when I was trying to reestablish myself. I would highly recommend River Sober Living.

As a person in long-term recovery and very involved with sober living across the entire country, I give Brant Gibson's River Sober Living my highest recommendation. Brandt has set a new standard for recovery residences in Idaho. If I had a son who needed sober living that works, I would feel very comfortable with Brandt and all his great staff at River Sober Living.

River Sober Living under the leadership of Brandt Gibson provides nicely furnished and appointed sober houses in the Treasure Valley for alcoholics and addicts who are in recovery. The house rules and policies promote a supportive community environment and are zero tolerance for the benefit of all residents. It is quite a testament to Brandt's passion and commitment to help those in the sober community that he has accomplished so much in a relatively short time.

Top-of-the-line sober living homes in the area. If you want to get clean, need support, and have a strong desire to change your life and your loved one’s lives, this a fantastic place to get started. Brandt makes it a priority to get folks help and a bed ASAP! Highly recommend.

Was accepted into River with a smooth and effortless onboarding. The house was maintained and kept in top-notch condition. The house worked together as a unit to get things done and the owner was actively involved in making sure sobriety and house alike was a priority. A good place to land if you need the structure and support

I was actually introduced to River by my counselor. However, nothing I expected prepared me for the excellence here. In a short time, I’ve made incredible friendships and feel true support and accountability. The residence is immaculate. We all are proud to be living here, and gladly work together as brothers to keep the place up to the incredibly high standards called for. I feel plugged in to Boise and many opportunities I’d never have discovered on my own. Being new to recovery as well as Boise, this experience truly has been the exact answer to my prayers.

This is the third sober living house I’ve lived in in Boise, and I can honestly say that it’s the first group of guys that I can truly connect with on a recovery level. Whether it be going to meetings together, hiking, going to the gym, or just hanging out at the house, I know that I am in a place that supports my need to stay clean and sober.

Having recently relocated to Idaho from out of state, I was absolutely baffled by the prospect of getting my life together without having any established connections here in Boise. I took a leap of faith and checked myself into a Detox unit here in town, still unsure of what would happen after that. I was fortunate enough to find River Sober Living, which I can only explain as either the luckiest sequence of events I’ve ever experienced, or divine intervention to some degree. Finding a home here and establishing comradery and respectful friendships among the other guys in the house is absolutely the best situation I could ask to be in right now as I work on my recovery.

While emphasizing personal accountability, without the peer support of my housemates and guidance from River’s management I would not be down the path of long-term sobriety like I am today. Providing structure in a safe environment, River provides the foundation upon which I can build a better life for myself, my loved ones, and the community.

I was looking for a sober living house to move into after completing rehab. I was so Blessed to have a counselor recommend River Sober Living in Boise, ID. This house is above and beyond what I was expecting. The house has a great atmosphere of pro-active recovery as well as exceptional living arrangements. It is true when you work toward recovery GREAT things happen. Many Thanks To River Sober Living.

Brandt (River Sober Living Founder) and I met three days prior to River officially opening. That meeting turned out to be a blessing for both me and the people who love and care for me most. I couldn’t be more grateful for the community of brothers and friends I’ve met while here at River Sober Living.

When I took my first step onto the path of recovery, I knew I needed to make some major life changes, but I never dreamed it would become as life changing as it has. My program of recovery has become my life’s work, and it’s led me to carry the message of hope to others pursuing this transformative journey. Now, in this role as the house manager of River Sober Living, I’m a leader in working recovery, helping others pursue a healthier, more honest way. Just weeks into it, I’ve seen relationships restored, family trust rebuilt, and brotherhoods formed. There’s something powerful we’re establishing here as we all work together to build stronger lives in recovery.
