Fodor's Expert Review Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge

On the shores of magnificent Lac Beauvert, 7 km (4½ miles) northeast of town, this lodge not only blends civilized luxury with rustic Canadian charm, but it also offers plenty of dining options and year-round recreational opportunities. In summer, there's canoeing, golf on an award-winning course, and horseback riding; winter sees ice-skating, cross-country skiing, tobogganing, and sleigh rides. Year-round offerings include a children's activity program, an outdoor swimming pool (heated to 86°F in winter), and a massive spa. In addition, guests have free daily access to boats or bicycles. Accommodations vary from simple cedar chalets to expansive cabins with up to eight bedrooms. All have either a porch, a patio, or a balcony.
