About Goldberry Woods:
Julie and Eric are college sweethearts who both became engineers. They honeymooned at a B&B in Kauai, which was a working flower farm. After that experience, they continued to stay at unique inns whenever they got the chance. They also vowed that someday they would become innkeepers ourselves.
Julie spent eight years working in processed food plants (imagine a million gallons of corn syrup per day!). Soon after the birth of our first child, Julie decided to stay home and spent ten years raising our three fabulous kids. With Eric’s support, she began to build a home around the idea that homemade was best made. Inherited and found items became integrated into the family’s décor. A family garden supplied the basis of our from-scratch meals. She decided that she no longer wanted to return to a career in processed foods but that she was ready to share her hospitality, love of food, and passion for the earth with guests.
They lived in the busy Chicago suburbs but began spending every possible moment vacationing in Michigan’s Harbor Country. On a week-long family vacation in 2011, they stumbled across the old River’s Edge B&B in Union Pier, MI. The property was close to the beach with beautiful woods and enough pasture to create a biodiverse organic farm. Though they thought that there may be too many obstacles, every detail fell into place in a serendipitous fashion and Goldberry Woods opened in May 2012.
They are so in love with Harbor Country, and they can’t wait to welcome you to Goldberry Woods.
