We loved Emerald Lake Lodge. The lake was still frozen when we went, but still beautiful. This is nature at its best...crisp clean air, birds singing, quiet & serene. The room was lovely with a wood burning fireplace all ready for you and the second day, they brought more kindling and wood. There was no tv, but we didn't miss... More

Service second-to-none in a beautiful, isolated (in a good way) location. If you are seeking to relax and hide from TV's, cellphones and internet THIS is the place. We lounged for hours in the hot tub gazing up at the moountains over the lake and then up at the stars. The staff treated everyone like royalty, harkening back to the... More

My wife and I loved staying at this lodge, the cabin had great views to the Lake & and a nice cosy fire - the restaurant is great too, with spectacular views onto to the Lake. Also liked that no cars come into the lodge complex (you leave your car down at the car park) as it made it feel... More

how can anyone resist to the amazing Emerald Lake! we went there last year in Sept. as a celebration of my bf's birthday. The driving was a bit long, approximately 3 hrs from Calgary. However, being able to wake up and see the scenery lake just right from the window of your room, then you know is all worth it.... More

Great scenery, classic lodge, comfortable clean rooms with a wood-burning fireplace, very nice spa. Courteous staff and very good food , a bit pricy but a memorabel experience. One of the prettiest places in the Canadian Rockies, bring you hiking gear and your camera

Back in the early '90's I found myself at this resort on a daytrip from Banff and vowed to return one day, and this past weekend we stayed 2 nights. The beauty of this location is everything I remembered it to be. We stayed in cabin 32 and as someone previously mentioned, you should try to stay in an upper... More

We had looked online at the lodge before we arrived, it looked spectacular. Upon arrival it seemed a little more dated than the pictures we had seen, the cabins were alot closer together than we expected. After walking around, taking pictures and checking out the area, it really grew on us! I definately needed the break from my cell phone... More

From our arrival at Emerald Lake Lodge until our departure it was nothing short of fabulous. Our room (second floor) was cozy, warm , inviting and overall very clean with a fantastic view. The bed was oh so comfortable and we loved the crackling fireplace as we drifted off to sleep. The main lodge was so historic and the decor... More
