Just inside the border of Banff National Park and set amid the forest, these luxury cabins were built in 1922 and have been gorgeously restored right down to the copper piping in the bathroom. They’re cozy and romantic, with a big wooden bed, a fireplace and a claw-foot bathtub. Meals in the equally enchanting lodge are gourmet.
