About us
Nestled on a picturesque working ranch in East Texas lies Sundown Ranch, a residential treatment center with full accreditation and licensing. With a mission to provide high-quality treatment to young adults and adolescents with co-occurring mental health and substance dependence, Sundown Ranch has been a reliable source for more than thirty years, having been in operation since October 1987.
Sundown Ranch’s purpose goes beyond providing medical care to patients. It also takes into account the family’s education and support, acknowledging that healing is a team effort. The institution provides a highly customized and organized curriculum that is tailored to each client’s specific requirements. Depending on the unique circumstances of each client, treatment regimens may include a mix of conventional 12-step programs, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and other therapeutic techniques. In order to guarantee that patients and their families get support throughout their journey, family therapy is also a crucial part of the rehabilitation process.
The 450 acres of rolling hills, lakes, and forests that make up the ranch provide a tranquil setting that is a stark contrast to the institutional feel of many rehabilitation facilities. This open, natural atmosphere is very important to the healing process because it offers a therapeutic setting where young people may learn how to live drug- and alcohol-free lives. Clients at Sundown Ranch strive to strengthen their feeling of self-worth, confidence, and personal identity while they battle their addiction.
Sundown Ranch is devoted to supporting youth and their families as they face the difficulties associated with addiction and recovery. To guarantee that each client receives the finest care possible on their path to recovery, the committed staff members concentrate on developing customized treatment programs that cater to their unique requirements.
The admissions staff at Sundown Ranch is always ready to answer any concerns and provide advice to anybody looking for treatment for a loved one, as well as information on how to start the healing process in our peaceful and encouraging environment.
The Joint Commission has officially recognized the institution, a testament to its dedication to upholding the highest standards of care and service.

Out of 10
We understand that choosing an addiction treatment center can be overwhelming, especially with so many options, promises, and marketing messages. Thatโs why weโve developed a clear, standardized rating system designed to cut through the noise and highlight what truly matters: safety, quality of care, and transparency. Our goal is to give individuals and families the information they need to make confident, informed decisions during a critical time.
In this guide, we explain exactly how we rate treatment centersโfrom accreditation and staff credentials to therapy options, facility environment, and family involvement. Youโll see how we assign scores, award badges, and update listings to ensure accuracy and fairness. Most importantly, our system focuses on elevating centers that prioritize ethical, evidence-based care, not just those with the best marketing. This way, you can trust that the ratings you see reflect meaningful standards that help you find the right fit for lasting recovery.
