Griffin, the Spalding County seat about 40 miles south of downtown Atlanta, is home base for the region’s public behavioral health provider, but it doesn’t have a Recovery Village campus. For Griffin residents who need medical detox or residential treatment, The Recovery Village South Atlanta in Stockbridge is about 24 miles north, most of it on GA-155 and I-75. We also provide inpatient mental health care and partial hospitalization. Call (770) 376-0045 any time.
Getting to Stockbridge From Griffin
From downtown Griffin the drive is about 24 miles and typically takes 35 minutes. Weekday mornings on I-75 northbound can stretch that to 50 minutes or more. Our campus is at 1000 Eagles Landing Parkway, Stockbridge, GA 30281.
- From downtown Griffin: take East Broadway Street to GA-155 (Jackson Road), then follow GA-155 north (North McDonough Road) toward McDonough. Join I-75 north and exit at Eagles Landing Parkway; the campus is a short drive from the exit.
- From north Griffin / the North Expressway (US-19/41): US-19/41 north through Sunny Side and Hampton, then east toward I-75, is an alternative when GA-155 is slow; compare both in your map app.
- From Experiment or the UGA Griffin campus area: cut east to GA-155 and follow the main route.
