Just outside Phoenix, the Best Western Apache Junction Inn, Apache Junction, Arizona, offers comfortable rooms against the beautiful backdrop of the Superstition Mountains, with a daily complimentary full hot breakfast, an outdoor swimming pool with a whirlpool, free high-speed internet, and a Southwest-styled design.
The setting puts a mountain museum, a ghost town, and a steamboat cruise on a desert lake close by, with shopping and varied dining within a mile. The legendary Lost Dutchman gold mine country lies right at the edge of town.
Apache Junction sits at the foot of the rugged Superstition Mountains east of Phoenix, where the historic Apache Trail winds off into a wild landscape of saguaro, canyon, and reservoir. Goldfield Ghost Town recreates an 1890s mining camp nearby, the Dolly Steamboat plies the blue water of Canyon Lake, and the jagged peaks above town still guard the legend of the Lost Dutchman's hidden gold.
