What's wrong with a library? This particular library is used by vagrant and dozens of other software projects, it's cross platform and handles all the edge cases.
Never relying on 3rd party libraries is a very inefficient way to write software. Seems like even just copying the code would be more productive than writing it from scratch. It has a very permissive license: https://github.com/mitchellh/go-homedir/blob/master/LICENSE.
