Cabin vacation rentals in Emerald Lake

I had a great stay in Kimbasket Lake. I was able to hike the majority of the lake and surrounding area, and lunches overlooking the lake were fantastic. The upper floor of the cabin was comfortable with a great view of Beaver River and the canyon. This is a remote and rustic location, and recommend packing accordingly. The staff at the resort was great and always asked if I needed anything to better my stay.

It was a short yet a sweet stay in this secluded place. The cabin has everything you need. Peaceful and has amazing view. The owner/manager of the resort was so kind and accommodating. I was sad to leave the place early and didn’t enjoy much the amazing place but I will definitely come back and book for a longer stay!

This was one of the best getaways we’ve ever had. It’s like staying on the outskirts of heaven, from the beautiful pond stocked with healthy rainbow trout, views of the mountains all around you and showering outside with beautiful views is a great way to reenergize. The small cabin was perfect and very cute. It had everything we needed. Our cell phones didn’t make a sound for 3 days. This stay was exactly what we were looking for and we can’t wait to come back.

Definitely worth it, away from all the noise.

Very well located accommodation, quiet, nice lake view!

I had a wonderful long weekend at Mark & Marie's cabin. Mark and Marie were very responsive and helpful ahead of my arrival. The property was spotless and well stocked; they had everything I needed to cook out on the grill and had plenty of linens. There is a little convenience store about 5 minutes south that had ice, local veggies and lots of other non perishable food items. I stopped at the grocery store in Golden on my way to the cabin to stock up on most of what I needed and didn't have to leave the property once I got there. I was traveling with two dogs and they had a great time running on the trails and being out on the deck. The property is beautiful, cabin unique and made for a fun & adventurous stay. The fire place keeps the cabin very cozy, solar power was sufficient for me to get work done when needed, and my cell phone worked fine at the property so I didn't feel completely off the grid. I highly recommend staying at this property & hope to do so again.

My friends and I have stayed here before and every time it’s perfect for what we need.

In a word - dreamy. A beautifully constructed and decorated log cabin on a spacious private property in the mountains with everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay - a well maintained hot tub, fire pit, covered wraparound porch with lots of seating - not to mention the gorgeous interior with fully stocked kitchen, games, books, DVDs, extra blankets and cushions…Kaymin was an incredibly thoughtful host- very responsive, provided lots of suggestions for local activities and had a bottle of wine and charcuterie waiting for us when we arrived. Need I say more?

This was one of the best rental properties we have ever stayed at. Extremely comfortable for 2 couples with loads of amenities. Anything we could have wanted, the property had. Not only was the view from the cabin stunning, the location was was the perfect home base for exploring Banff, Yoho and Glacier National Parks. Also only a few miles from the Golden Skybridge and adventure park. The hot tub and steam shower were added bonuses. Beds and linens were very comfortable. The town of Golden was just a quick drive down the road and had everything we needed from great restaurants (Eleven22, Red Tomato Pies, The Wolf's Den, Turning Point), to brew houses, and full grocery stores (hit up the Save-on-Foods over the IGA). We also had amazing luck during our stay and got to see the northern lights one evening - lifetime bucket list item checked off! We couldn't have asked for more from Wendy's property. Thanks a million for a truly memorable stay. We are already talking about visiting again!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful cabin in the woods. The view was absolutely breathtaking, truly one of the highlights of the trip. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive when we needed assistance, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The cabin itself is cozy, peaceful, and perfectly situated for a relaxing getaway in nature. We would absolutely return and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a serene retreat.

Loved it, would recommend the cabin to everyone looking for a peaceful place with all amneties one can dream of !

Stunning. Spacious and comfortable with everything you could need. The garden is large with beautiful mountain views. Julie was a great host with recommendations of local walks which was a great way to start our mornings. Winding down in the hot tub with fabulous views each evening was perfect. We hope to return!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Karen’s Airbnb. The home is cozy, beautifully maintained, and incredibly family-friendly—it had everything we needed and more. The backyard was a real highlight, with a stunning view of the mountains. As a meditator, I found it to be an especially peaceful space—my morning meditations there were incredibly deep and grounding. Karen was such a warm and sweet host. Her kindness, clear communication, and all the thoughtful touches around the home made us feel genuinely welcome. She was also very accommodating and easy to communicate with throughout our stay. This was the perfect mountain retreat for our little family, and we’d absolutely love to return someday. Highly recommend!

This cabin is even more beautiful than the pictures show! The mountains surrounding it are beautiful. It had more amenities and fun things to do than we were expecting. The house is in extremely good shape and very cozy. The deck is the only sketch part of the house. It probably should have been replaced 5 years ago. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and utensils. Over all it was an awesome place to spend the long weekend!

If you are looking for a private, secluded cabin in the mountains with outstanding views, look no further! This is IT! The snow capped mountains were right outside your back door and were beautiful every hour of every day. The meadow in front with the horses added the right touch of peacefulness and serenity to this gorgeous location. The cabin itself was cute and quaint, plenty of room for both of us and our doggo. Easy access to the town of Golden and a little bit further was the drive to Yoho and Banff NPs, but what what a stunning drive each time we made it. Sidenote: the owner's dogs do roam the property, just an FYI. We definitely loved it here and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Katrin’s cabin was great. Small, but authentic. It would be hard to beat the location, 2 blocks from Banff Ave. This might be a strange thing to point out, but I am a stickler for a clean bathroom. The one in Fox cabin was obviously newly renovated and squeaky clean. Would recommend and if we have the good fortune to come back, this would be a go-to!

Nice private cabin, close to Golden. Would definitely return.

Amazing place to stay if visiting Banff or the other parks in the area! Rick and Watson are great hosts and the space was very spacious and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun unique place to stay.

Great place. Surrounded by trees in a big property. If you are looking for a private location this is the spot. Spacious house with a complete kitchen. The bedrooms have comfortable beds with extra pillows and bed linens. Both upstairs rooms have skylights, so they get bright when the sun rises (make sure to pack an sleep mask). Our dog loved the deck and the surroundings. The communication with the host was great, fast replies and accurate instructions. Golden is an amazing place with lots to do. The house was what we were looking for: private and easy access to attractions in the area.

Tina’s cabin was exactly as described—perfect for a family and felt like home the moment we arrived. The groundskeeper was very friendly, even bringing us firewood and staying for a pleasant chat. The town of Golden is about a 20-minute drive away, making it easy to stock up on groceries or do laundry. *Tip- the local IGA gives 10% off your first purchase if you sign up for their rewards! National parks along Highway 1 were easy to access, with popular hiking trails ranging from 40 minutes to 1.5 hours away. I feel so lucky we chose this cabin—its location was ideal. Falling asleep while staring at the mountain peaks was pure heaven. 100% recommend!

The place was awesome, everything was neat and tidy. Insrtuctions were clear from the owner. I will recomend this place.

Very cute, clean, and cozy cabin! Saw some deer a few times, and the horses next door make the drive in very pretty. The area was quiet and private, but with Christina’s clear instructions it was easy to find. Would recommend staying here for your trips!
