"This 1902 timber property on a peninsula overlooking a glacial lake in Yoho National Park, west of Banff, is in "an inspirational location and has a great layout," hence the two perfect scores. The two-story alpine cabins with fireplaces and private balconies have no TVs, and some are "in need of refurbishment." In summer, guests cross a wooden bridge to dine at Cilantro on the Lake, a log cabin. Mount Burgess’s Rocky Mountain cuisine means caribou medallions, elk tenderloin, and salmon fillets. The local terrain draws cross-country skiers, although some prefer to just "sit in the moonlight and gaze at the peaks reflected in the lake."
