If we go to Hollywood Studios and are staying off property. But we have park hoppers and want to eat dinner at EPCOT. Is our parking pass good for parking at the Yacht or Beach Club so we can walk in to EPCOT via the back entrance? Or is the parking pass only good for the theme park parking lots?
 
It's only good for parks. To park at a resort you'd need to pay for valet since you don't have a reservation.

Easiest way to get to Epcot is to walk, followed by boat, followed by bus. Or just drive yourself, you don't have to pay to park again
 
HS to Epcot Int'l area is not a long walk - and you can see Boardwalk, BC, YC, Swolphin along the walk. Or you can the the boat from outside HS to Epcot. The boat ride is nice - lots of sightseeing, and sometimes you get a captain who does Disney trivia or similar.
I'd just leave your car at HS and take the boat to Epcot, then walk back (save your feet for the park).
 

Depending on when your trip is you may not be able to take the boat as the boat between HS and Epcot is currently closed. It's just running between the resorts and Epcot for now. I haven't seen an end date for that yet though I could be missing it. It's a really nice walk though.
 
Just stay parked in DHS lot. One way or the other there will be a way to get to Epcot and back. I did that a couple of years ago. If the boats are running during the time you are there that is the easiest, but, not the quickest way to get there and back. It saves a lot of wear and tear on the feet, but, takes a little longer. Just make sure you allow yourself enough time. It actually shorter to keep your car at DHS then to drive to Epcot and walk in. I assume that your dinner ADR is in World Showcase (mine was). I actually looked forward to the boat ride back.
 
If the boats are down when you're there, there will be buses available to the resorts. So, you can walk (takes about 15-18 mins), take the boat (if running, 25 mins plus wait times), or a bus if the boats aren't running. Or, you can take a bus directly to the front of Epcot from DHS.
