Parking near International Gateway

One day we want to just do World Showcase at Epcot. It's such a long way from the Epcot car park to World Showcase though - is there anywhere near International Gatweway that we can park? What about the Boardwalk hotels? I know that guests get to park at hotels for free but can non-guests pay to park there?

Only valet parking will allow you to park there, otherwise it's 3 hours

So we can pay for valet parking even if we're offsite, yes? (is this at the hotels?)

I have often wondered if you could park at Disney's Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf Course and then just walk across to the boat launch at the swan.

Just wondering if did a round of golf and then we could just walk across to epcot and not come out till after the fireworks.
Do they lock the car park ? or is there any maximum stay.

Theres no barriers or anything, the entrance/exit is just open. It's a fair walk from EPCOT though. The golf courses are open till after IllumiNations so it would still be in use anyway.

I wouldn’t think parking at the hotels is much closer than the Epcot entrance.

Just that you can get a boat from the Boardwalk area hotels to International Gateway, which is closer to that part of the park - but having Googled and seen that valet parking is $40, I think we'll just put up with the walk from the main entrance
