Sure! They were all on the 192, Regal Oaks by Old Town and some further down near where Splendid China used to be. This was on Airbnb, VRBO and TUI (when bundled in a fly drive).

We used to stay offsite all the time without a car. And that was before the days of Uber and Lyft. It's only during the last couple of trips that we stayed onsite.
We visited all the parks just fine. We visited places like KSC and the various malls. We stayed at hotels that offered free shuttles to the parks, and also used buses and taxis. We never seemed to have any problems. And now with Lyft and Uber I'm sure it's much easier. The drawbacks include:
Having said that, there are some benefits:
In the past we have done a split stay with half the time onsite and half offsite and had been planning to do the same thing again this year. So that's another alternative to consider. That way, you get the best of both worlds with just the slight drawback of having to pack and move in the middle of the holiday.

We used Uber on our trip and actually LOVED it! Neither me nor DBF have any problems driving in America but kinda like the break from it when on holiday... and it was a mega cost saving.
Reasons why: - UBER offer a monthly pass for 9.99 which protects you from surcharge (well worth it) - They drop you off and pick you up right at the park entrance (transportation centre for MK) - They can use the Disney bus lanes so skip any parking queues - We were staying on I-Drive South (near Vineland Premium Outlets) and it was on average $10 each way - We used the itrolley or walked on idrive - We could get self catering accommodation (Sheraton Vistana Villages) for cheaper than on site, save on car hire and parking and basically feel like we were getting chauffeured around - all of the drivers were polite and professional and we never waited more than ten minutes for a car Cons - We didn't go to the park twice in one day like some staying on site might - No onsite perks |
