This small weedy looking tree on the beach in New England had many small berries the size of dimes. What is it?

Some sort of Cherry, Prunus species.

I think it's some type of crabapple due to the blossom end scar, the leaves, and the shape of the lenticels (those lighter dots) in the bark.

I thought it might be a Beach Plum, but the fruit seem too small...
