Johnston Canyon Lodge & Bungalows – Historic Cabins, Premier Location, Hiking Access, E‑Bike Rentals

Nestled in the heart of Banff National Park between Banff and Lake Louise, Johnston Canyon Lodge & Bungalows invites you to step into a truly unforgettable Canadian Rockies getaway. A family-run retreat since 1926, our heritage cabins—rich with rustic charm—are perfectly situated at the Johnston Canyon trailhead, home to over seven cascading waterfalls, suspended catwalks, and serene forested surroundings.

Choose from 42 unique accommodations, studios, small and large bungalows, cottages, historic Red Cabin, and a romantic carriage house, each offering cozy amenities like gas or wood-burning fireplaces, private patios, spa-style bathrooms, and vintage-inspired décor. For families or groups, spacious layouts with multiple beds, hide-a-beds, and full kitchens offer comfort and flexibility.

Enjoy on-site dining at the BlackSwift Bistro, featuring locally inspired fare, vegetarian options, and a warm river stone fireplace, as well as The Market Cafe for fresh coffee, baked goods, and souvenirs. Don’t miss The Shack, the charming ice cream stand perfect for a sweet treat after a hike.

Explore the Bow Valley Parkway by bike (e-bike rentals available), or relax in the forested 5‑acre grounds. With a pickle ball court (opening soon), peaceful trails, and easy access to major attractions like Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, and Banff townsite, this is truly a premier cabin stay in the Rockies.
