The location is absolutely amazing, with a stunning lake view right in front of you. Even if there were any minor issues with the stay, the kindness and friendliness of the staff made all complaints fade away. Breakfast was a bit disappointing since the menu was the same two days in a row. However, the unlimited cookies and coffee were a real highlight and truly wonderful. Thanks to that, we’re leaving with sweet memories. We’re already looking forward to coming back in the summer!

we had an amazing beach view with a fireplace. breakfast was delicious. My only ask is for freshly made oatmeal as the instant is not as good. We were off season so that may be why. Otherwise the entire experience was just the best and the team was attentive and outstanding!

Room was clean. We wanted a basic room and got lucky to have a balcony looking over the bay. We only stayed one night so I don't have much to say. Breakfast hours were very short so unfortunately we missed breakfast. The room was very hot and we ended up turning the air on in the middle of January just to be comfortable. The indoor pool and hot tub was nice. Very quite hotel.

We stayed in the Walloon Suite and unfortunately our room was not in great condition. Several lights didn’t work at all. Know that several of the rooms do NOT have a window in them. The staff was great, friendly and accommodating but they were booked so we couldn’t switch rooms. I spend a lot of time in Traverse throughout year and keep a list of places I have stayed for future reference. Unfortunately Cherry Tree will no longer be an option. While it’s great to have a friendly staff, it’s just a very run down place now.

Had a lovely time, would stay here again. Complimentary coffee, tea, hot chocolate 24/7. Hot breakfast every morning. Nice large pool with a roomy hot tub. Even a little arcade room with some pinball machines. I felt like the room itself felt larger than other hotels I have stayed in. We came in late November, so didnt use the beach amenities, but a lovely stay to rest for a few days.
