Apple Tree Inn; SureStay Collection by Best Western

This quaint, modernized, updated Inn, located on 131 was very nice. All of the employees were very friendly. We had some questions about the local area that even the maintenance man answered. They all work as a team. Cleaning was constantly going on in the halls, painting, updating. There were no cobwebs in corners at this Inn. We stayed in a corner balcony room and had an excellent view of the water. Hot breakfast every morning, gym room, hot tub, inside pool, comfortable room with coffee pot and small refrigerator. This Inn had everything we needed. Drinking coffee on the outside balcony in the morning was an added bonus. I chose this Inn from browsing on the web but after experiencing our stay, we would definitely stay here again. Showers need updating but management is working on that. Centrally located to shopping, restaurants, and waterfront park it was easy to get around. The complimentary limo is available during evening hours if you prefer not to walk or drive yourself. We were there in September so there was parking near the park. In the summertime, parking might be hard to find. McDonald's is just a couple of blocks away and convenient. Odawa Casino is within a couple of miles from the Inn. A few miles to the south are Boyne Mountain and the SkyBridge. It's not a high end luxury inn but for people looking for a centrally located, comfortable stay, the Apple Tree Inn is great. .

The front desk staff was AMAZING!! Booking never sent my reservation to the hotel so the front desk staff was super patient while I tried to get a solution with Booking. Finally, there was no solution and the front desk staff helped me and got me hooked up with a room.

We booked at the last minute and it was surprisingly affordable. The desk clerk was quick, kind and very helpful. Our room was super comfortable and we enjoyed some time on our balcony looking at Little Traverse Bay. The whole place is very clean and the breakfast was delicious!!! The only downside for me was the sound of traffic from the highway but it wouldn’t be a deal breaker. We admired that there was a free limo service but we didn’t take advantage of it. Cynthia Lutz

Apple Tree Inn was very conveniently located for the activities we had planned during our visit. The hotel was an updated version of the hotel style we remember from our travels early in our marriage with a cozy feeling we appreciated. Having the sink separate from the shower/toilet area was a nice feature of the room. The bed was quite comfortable and we enjoyed the included breakfast after a good night's sleep.

Room was very clean and nice view from the balcony. The pool and spa were really nice after a day of walking. The free limo service is a great perk, keep that going.
