Head up the North Fork Road and keep driving until you get there (about 1 hour from the little house and about 35 min on a gravel road). This gem of history sits just outside of Glacier National Park and has some of the best-baked goods ever. Try the huckleberry claw or any of the cookies, their savory bread is amazing too! Really you can’t go wrong. It’s the perfect pit if you go visit Bowman Lake or Kintla Lake in the Glacier National Park. Even making Polebridge your destination is a great idea too if you’re up for the drive. OPEN SEASONALLY
