Waterford Oaks Sledding Hill review, pics, info, and video! Waterford Oaks sled hill is located inside Waterford Oaks County Park on Scott Lake Rd in Waterford MI. Review, pics, info, and video below.

The sled hill at Waterford Oaks County Park is maintained by Oakland County Parks and Recreation. The sled hill is 320 feet long, 27 feet high, and narrow at about 30 feet wide. There are two walkways on each side of the hill for a safe climb back to the top. The sled hill at Waterford Oaks also features durable fencing that clearly outlines the sledding area.

The sled hill is open from sunrise to sunset daily weather permitting. Waterford Oaks has night sledding from 6p-9p on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays weather permitting.

The hill at Waterford Oaks isn’t the fastest or steepest in Oakland County – it’s more of a safe, smooth ride. If you’re looking for bone-jarring sled hills in SE Michigan, you may want to look elsewhere. If your kids are in the 5-11 years old range, this hill may be what you’re looking for. If your kids are younger than 5, there is no secondary or bunny hill at the park but could always just go up half-way or a quarter-way.

While I don’t think Waterford Oaks has the fastest sledding in Oakland County, one thing to keep in mind is the convenience. The parking is extremely close to the hill and the sled hill area is clearly defined and very safe.

The sledding hill is open to the public from sunrise to sunset daily only when conditions are ideal for sledding. Sometimes they turn on the lights and open the sled hill for evening sledding on weekends if conditions are ideal.
