Fat Biking Ohiopyle - experiences?

Hi all, I'm developing some fat biking trips for visitors to Ohiopyle this fall/winter/spring and I'm looking for trail opinions from anyone who has fat biked that area. Specifically, I'm thinking about the Sugarloaf/Baughman trails and about Laurel Ridge State park (focusing on the snowmobile trails). There aren't a lot of places you can try out a fat bike for a few days (outside of Alaska and Michigan), but I'm a little worried about how good/worth it the trails will be. I really enjoyed Sugarloaf and Baughman on a mtn bike, but I'm a novice rider so I have a pretty low bar.

Does anyone rent fat-bikes in the area down there?

Very very few places rent fat bikes, anywhere. For this trip option I'm workign with an outfitter to bring bikes in. There's only a handful of places in the US you can rent them.
