You would see very little, unless you could stand very still for some 434 years - that's the time light takes to travel from Polaris to Sol.

When is the best season to see polaris?

If you are north of the Tropic of Capricorn, winter. The Earth is then tilted in a way that Polaris is in the darkest part of the sky that it can be in. It also can be seen from further south than any other time of year, so in some places, winter is the only season to see Polaris. If you are south of the Tropic of Capricorn, you will not see Polaris no matter what season it is.
