Goldberry Woods- A Modern Farm Resort

We took advantage of a mid-week special and saved some $ while also having the three huge common areas, (kitchen/diningroom, living room and sunroom) nearly to ourselves. I would get up a few hours before my adult daughter, have coffee, check email etc. in the sunroom. We canoed the river, (saw a large crane), soaked and swam in the enclosed hot tub and pool during a rainstorm , hiked the woods trail (dotted with humerous viginettes) and explored the farm. We walked the New Buffalo beach boardwalk and shops only 10 minutes away and at the Three Oaks Journeyman distillery enjoyed cauliflour steak, pulled pork and a purple rain mixed drink (add the lemon juice and blue drink turns purple.)

Kayaks, bikes, farm fresh food, great staff, clean, calming, games and puzzles. Beautiful rooms. Went for a two hour canoe ride on the river all included in price of the stay! I had a great time here with my mom. Loved going into new Buffalo, Union pier and to see Lake Michigan.

This is our 3rd time here and is our home away from home. The breakfasts are visually gorgeous, delicious and farm to table (had stuffed acorn squash with eggs and a sage like flavored sausage. With an apple fritter bread on the side and yoghurt with berries) Visiting both in the summer and in autumn, have enjoyed the warm pool (covered) , and the outdoor jacuzzi as well as the generous bath sized Jacuzzi's in our suite. We have canoed, hiked the woody trails, visited the quail and hens and stayed up way too late doing a puzzle in the common room. The cookies and hot tea at our disposal around the clock are also a comfort. I can't wait to come back.

Goldberry woods is truly a magical place to stay! We had the best time - the rooms are clean and fabulous, and the breakfasts are to die for! Very accommodating for food sensitivities/allergies too! 10/10 experience! The grounds are absolutely beautiful as well we really enjoyed the nature walk along the trails.

This was my husband and mine first time at a B&B and Goldberry Woods did not disappoint. We pre-ordered champagne and charcuterie and it was waiting for us in our room upon arrival. The bubbles were from a local winery and it was delicious! The daily breakfast was very tasty and there are many local restaurants Within 10 minutes drive so you are not lacking any options for lunch or dinner. The accommodations were clean and spacious and the sheets on the bed were 10/10! We explored the grounds and really enjoyed the aviary. Overall we had a great time and will definitely be back.

we had a wonderful time here! the owners are so friendly and personable, we loved talking to them and getting recommendations for food/activities in the area♥️ the breakfast youre served each morning is by far the best breakfast ive ever had, and they are sure to accommodate any dietary restrictions (i’m vegetarian and my meal was still AMAZING). the grounds are just breathtaking, our only regret is that our stay is just 3 days! we are definitely looking forward to returning! this place truly feels like a home away from home.

We went here for our anniversary. The stay was absolutely perfect. Our room was in the inn, our bed n pillows were very comfortable.The room was decorated so nice n had a fireplace.We met some really nice people there n had bonfires every night. They also had everything for us to make s’mores The pool was excellent not cold at all also enjoyed the hot tub. I loved that they had bikes n they were nice bikes we rode into town around the neighborhood n to the beach.they also offered kayaks but the river was very low. Also trails there to walk, we seen a baby fawn. It’s very peaceful there. Coffee was offered all day long n they made brownies for us every afternoon. I would definitely return Thank you goldberry woods for making our trip memorable

We should have cancelled our reservation after the website confirmed it, and then the owner kept emailing me to tell me I had to switch the dates.He also told me that his website shouldn’t have let me make that reservation! What? It wasn’t my fault the website let me make the reservation. After much stress and much back and forth with the owner, we switched our reservation to suit him. Should have canceled instead. We rented the Rivers Edge cottage. While it is part of the property, it is not in the secluded part where the Inn and the other cottages are. It’s actually close to the road (not an issue) and very close to a private, neighboring house. The neighbors were quite noisy, using loud blowers and chain saws, and they set off VERY loud fireworks many nights, many of which landed on the driveway to our unit. Not Goldberry’s fault, but not a secluded cottage. In addition, the unit is “tired” looking. It could use some TLC both inside and out. It needs paint everywhere at the very least. The major kitchen appliances worked well enough, but the website description led us to believe they were updated, when in fact they were quite old. (The coffee maker provided was so filthy we went out and bought our own). The furnishings were tired and dated as well…we felt like we had stepped into someone’s attic. The bunk room is actually a converted garage, down several steps, and closed off from the rest of the cottage with an exterior door. It has a window AC unit. The steps leading down to the river didn’t look like they could withstand much weight (we are not overweight people, but didn’t want to risk it.) The screens on the screened in porch needed repair, so they weren’t really good at keeping bugs out. The main part of the property was rented out, so the “free snacks” were not available. There were no closets in any of the bedrooms. It wasn’t the worst place we have ever stayed, but for what we paid, we could have stayed somewhere nicer. Just letting you know all of this because the pics on the website don’t show what the cottage is really like. Also, after we left, the owner asked us to contact him if we had anything unfavorable to say, or if we were pleased to go to trip advisor. That’s probably why this is the only “less than stellar” review. It wasn’t what we had hoped it would be. Two positive things I can say is that Carly met us and showed us around and was lovely, and it was nice that we had access to bikes and kayaks (although those could also be rented fairly close by).

It feels a bit like the adult summer camp of your dreams. From the impressive bed in the American Hornbeam room to the sweet and savory breakfasts to the available bikes, kayaks and trails. It is a truly a beautiful property and very close to wineries, breweries, distilleries, shopping and great restaurants. I promise you will be well taken care of here and you owe it to yourself to have some fun and relax - this is the place to do it!
