I think I saw a ramp for specially equipped buggies. I have back, neck and health issues and had no problem with the ride. My disabled brother-in-law who is a large man enjoyed the ride. Call ahead to tell them your issues. Let them know and I'm sure that arrangements can be made.

Yes, can be hard.

Debbie Sewell Sullivan | Aug 3, 2021

Yes. Loading and unloading would be extremely difficult. Might be that they have accommodations for wheelchair bound individuals. I'd call ahead so as not to be disappointed.

They do have a ramp or a extra step up stool. The front seat is a little wider.

Obese is not hard as they have an extra step stool to help you get up but I don't think they have handicap accessible.

They have a ramp for disabled band wheelchairs.

An obese person, it's fairly easy to get on, if it's any consolation, I'm 5'3, 215ibs my hubby is 6'2 & 330ibs, and have health issues and I did it with very little assistance, the only "handicaps" they warm against is, bad back and heart issues, otherwise no, however, just be on safe side and call them and have info verified, prayers and blessings to your endeavors🤗🙏

Bench seats with one long seat belt with average leg room

I was there yesterday. My husband is large and had no issues getting into or out of the buggy. I did see a handicapped child while I was there- about 12 years old, wheelchair bound. I didn't see how she got into and out of the buggy, but she did ride. There is one point in the rude where everyone gets out - not sure if a handicapped person would be able to get out, but I don't think staying in the buggy for 5 minutes would be a big deal.

My short answer would be its not handicapable friendly. Two large steps to get into the vehicle. FWIW, and while purely anectodal, in the half a dozen times I've gone, I have never seen a handicapable person go on the ride.
