Tall Pines boats over 70 miles of trails, according to its website, and offers cabins and homes to rent for extended stays.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #222222;\">\u201c<span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">Tall Pines is a wonderful family-run business right up the road. They service a lot of side-by-sides and four-wheelers,\u201d said Finn. \u201cThat was certainly a part of the mission here, to serve the community as well as our farming neighbors. The closest gas station is six or seven miles away depending on which way you go.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #222222;\"><span style=\"font-family: Lato, Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">The self-storage portion of the business is also aimed at making life a little easier for visitors to Tall Pines.
