We walk a LOT at home, so my DD is pretty hearty in the walking dept.
In June over her 5th b-day, we did not use our stroller at all at Hollywood Studios. Parked it out of the way at rope drop and went back for it when we left the park. Used it very little at MK, and at least once we left it VERY VERY inconveniently parked - nearly got cut off by the afternoon parade trying to retrieve it so we could leave the park. Could not do Epcot without a stroller - would absolutely rent one there if we did not take our own. We do a lot of backtracking for fastpasses at AK. Might have been able to do without it at AK but we definitely used it all day there.
Even when we don't use the stroller much in the park, I think my DD especially appreciates having a "ride" back to the car. We bring our own because we have one we like that is easy to travel with, and my dd is light for her age so well within the weight limit of the stroller. We will be bringing our stroller again next trip when my dd will be nearly 6 and my niece will be 7.5. My guess is that my niece will use it more. This happened 2 years ago we had a double stroller and when we split up, my 3 yr old walked and her 5 yr old cousin rode. My dd loves to be active, doesn't mind walking at all. We normally travel over spring break and could probably do without a stroller but last trip in the heat of June, she really appreciated having the luxury of her own stroller.
