Standing at the base of a placid aquamarine lake beneath Yoho National Park's towering cliff-faced mountains, the rural Emerald Lake Lodge in Field, British Columbia, represents an ideal Rocky Mountain escape within 30 kilometers, or 20 miles, of Lake Louise Ski Hill and even nearer pristine waterfalls and the Canadian Pacific Railroad's famous Spiral Tunnels. Outdoor adventure seekers can enjoy snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, hiking along numerous trials, rowing or canoeing, and fishing.
Built of hand-hewn timber and featuring massive stone fireplaces, the lodge includes a formal dining room, quiet reading and sitting rooms, conference facilities and a game room. The lounge is enhanced by an oak bar salvaged from an 1890's Yukon saloon, and adds to the mountain ambience with outdoor spa tub, sauna, steam room and fitness center. For dining, guests can enjoy Rocky Mountain cuisine in the Mt. Burgess Dining Room in the hotel, and then sample innovative Californian/Southwestern cuisine in lodge's Cilantro on the Lake. Other perks include wedding, meeting, banquet and catering services; business center, dial-up Internet access; and seasonal ski shuttle.

The two-story lodge in the Canadian Rockies features 85 guestrooms with mountain lodge-style décor, balconies with views of the mountains, dial-up Internet access, wood-burning fireplaces, complimentary wood, and windows that open to let the mountain breezes flow.

The Canadian Pacific Railway built the original guest lodge in 1902. Now resting in one of Canada's most accessible wilderness settings, the historic Emerald Lake Lodge exudes a sense of woodsy rustic charm as a romantic vacation and business destination for anyone who wants to escape the daily grind.
