No, find-file always prompts with the current directory. When you have
visited one of the files in your certain directory, it will prompt with
that directory.
If typing that directory name even once is too much, try setting an
environment variable to it so you can reference it: C-x C-f $CERTAIN_DIR
<tab>
Or try putting this in your ~/.emacs file: (cd
"/path/to/a/certain/directory")
