Golf
Single rider are available at all of the Oakland County Parks golf courses. Cost is equivalent to a 2-seat golf cart. Contact the course where you plan to golf 24 hours prior to your tee time to arrange cart availability.

These carts provide individuals with spinal cord injuries, amputees and other physical impairments the ability to play golf. The cart features a swivel seat that moves to a standing position and also pivots left and right, for maximum activity. The large non-slip wide tires reduce the potential of damage to the fairways.

Pedalboats
Hand-operated boats available at Groveland Oaks and Independence Oaks.

Pontoon Boats
In 2008, the Michigan Recreation and Parks Association Foundation and the Access to Recreation Initiative, funded by W. K. Kellogg Foundation, provided matching funds for pontoon boats. The boat is especially suited to provide nature and fishing opportunities for individuals with disabilities. 

Pool Transfer Chairs
Waterford Oaks and Red Oaks Waterparks are equiped with water transfer chairs to enable individuals to transfer from a wheelchair and easily access the water.

Seat Canes
Independence Oaks currently has two provisional seat canes available for use. These special canes provide individuals with the opportunity to hike or walk at their leisure, while also allowing them to sit at any point to rest.
