Lakes Regional Park Fort Myers E.Z. Rider ProgramIt's E.Z. To Enjoy Lakes Park

At the Lakes Park Enrichment Foundation, we believe that everyone should benefit from the beauty and fun at Lakes Park, which is why we created and are funding the E.Z. Rider Lakes Park Assisted Tour Service! The E.Z. Rider is a six-passenger golf cart available to guests of Lakes Park. It transports individuals and families who could not otherwise enjoy the park.

Your group will be taken on a 1- 1 ½ hour park tour by a Lee County Parks & Recreation Certified Volunteer, with tour commentary customized to the passengers specific interests!

RESERVATIONS can be made 72 hours in advance - or just show up, first come, first served
