If you're looking for an orchard to visit just for a family/friend trip, this place is great. There's lots to do, eat, and buy, and the overall campus is gorgeous. (Note: you cannot pick your own apples. The apples are pre-picked for purchase)

If you're a photographer, I would not recommend going to Pine Tree. Although there are decent places to take photos as you enter the grounds, and around the activities, the most beautiful scenery is located on their trail; unfortunately, this area has a fenced-in trail. There is regular staff enforcing visitors to stick to the trail. In other words, forget the photos of you near the trees. (Obviously, this makes sense--they want to preserve the trees and keep the campus beautiful... but you're wasting your time as a photographer here. I would recommend going to another orchard for photos.) It's also a busy place both on the weekends and weekdays, and it's hard to not catch others in your photos.

Overall: great place for family, chill, and fun; bad place for professionals.
