Apple Tree Inn was a delight
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/21/07
We were very happily surprised at how nice this place is. Although there was a snafu in our booking and we did not have the suite I had booked originally, the room we got was so spacious we didn't mind. It was clean and nicely set up. We loved having the fireplace and the French door to the outside. A mama and baby deer came right up to it one evening. It was so nice having the feel of being right in the woods with nature there.
The thing I loved the best was the heated indoor swimming pool. It was so clean and the temperature was so perfect, that I slipped right into it without a cold shock. I had it to myself twice. With the fresh air coming in through the open windows it was great. My husband and I had fun playing Racquetball in the court one day - $5 for an hour and they provided the racquets and ball. The spa was equally as nice as the pool - very clean and fresh.
Having Tenaya lodge next door, with a trail to it from the cabins at Apple Tree was so nice. We took advantage of the $40 certificate good for any of the restaurants in Tenaya for only $20, added on to the room one night. I totally disagree with the other reviewer about the "high end" restaurant there. The two dinners I had were Awesome (Macadamia crusted Halibut with coconut risotto once night and a Shrimp and Scallop dish with rice noodles and a Thai curry the other). Yum!!
We would definitely stay here again.
