Located in
the North Fork Valley just west of
Glacier National Park, the North Fork Hostel
offers guests a choice of accommodations in an old-fashioned, homey atmosphere.
It's a place to get away, relax, meet new friends and enjoy the beauty of
Glacier National Park and the
Flathead National Forest.
Propane lights brighten your nights (there's no electricity in Polebridge). Although the area is off the power grid, the hostel has its own
power supply to offer you a cordless phone, a fax machine and a computer.
Camcorder and digital camera batteries may be recharged at the hostel. A laptop
computer is available for email. A propane cooking range and refrigerators are
available to make your food preparation easier after you have spent an exciting
day exploring the area.
Visitors from all around the world enjoy our facilities. It is not uncommon
to begin your day by having a fascinating conversation with travelers from other
countries while enjoying your morning coffee. Some guest comments are: "Thank
You for sharing your home and a bit of yourself with each of us," "Best hostel
I've seen," and "Both Cecilia and myself were enamored by the charm, history,
and overall serenity of the South Cabin and vicinity."
For outdoor enthusiasts, a variety of equipment may be rented. This includes,
but is not limited to, items such as mountain bikes, canoes, and backpacking
equipment. Cross-country skis, poles and boots as well as snowshoes are
available for use in June at Logan Pass on the Continental Divide in Glacier
National Park. Try our wood-heated cedar hot tub with a view of the Rocky
Mountains.
All guests may use the amenities of the hostel. These include the living
room, shower, and kitchen and refrigerator facilities.
Your friendly host and hostelmeister is
Oliver. He has traveled the world
extensively and understands hosteller's needs. He is fluent in English, German
and sometimes Italian and Spanish.
Note: Please make sure to call ahead, check for the road conditions
and make reservations in the winter. Special arrangements can be made for the
Charlie Wise Homestead Cabin in winter at Square Peg Ranch
with adequate notice.
