The area was called Buth'arth meaning scrub in Dundaburra language. European settlers entered the district from the 1840s. The initial industries were grazing, sawmilling and then growing sugarcane. Apple Tree Creek Provisional School opened on 28 November 1887. It became Apple Tree Creek State School on 5 July 1897. It closed on 21 December 1969. It was on McGibbon Street (approx ). In 1896, a railway line extending from Childers to Cordalba was erected, bypassing Apple Tree Creek. St Anne's Anglican Church was dedicated on 10 July 1930 by Venerable William Powning Glover, Archdeacon of Toowoomba. It has since closed.
