The Polebridge Mercantile

Glacier National Park, Montana

The Polebridge Mercantile transports you to a distant land and time. As Polebridge, Montana's only store, in the state's final frontier town, The Merc provides visitors with a plethora of goodies.

Ask anyone who considers themselves knowledgeable of Montana’s Glacier National Park where to:

  • find the best cinnamon rolls after a long hike…

  • enjoy the finest cup of coffee as you watch the sun set behind the Whitefish Mountain Range…

  • find the finest reading materials for when nature calls…

  • hear coyotes howl and watch eagles soar through air so pristine it seems gasoline has never infiltrated it…

  • rest in Glacier National Park’s only hostel

the list goes on. If they give you any answer besides The Merc, you know their knowledge of the park is limited to a typical Lonely Planet/Moon Guide tourists’ view.

The Merc's open 7 days a week and offers rustic, cabin rentals all year long.

And it all begins with a stop at the Polebridge Mercantile.
