Polebridge is an off grid community up a gravel road. It is a beauty back country drive along the North Fork River. This is one of my favorite local drives for photography and scenery. The Polebridge Mercantile offers world famous huckleberry pastries. Home Ranch Bottoms is the first restaurant/establishment you will come across with amazing home made meals, live music on Friday and Saturdays at their beautiful outdoor stage. Great for kids to run around in the field while you wait for dinner and enjoy music. There is something for everyone here.
