A-loop is still open and accessible just before the gates to the park

We drove into the park late afternoon on a Thursday with no expectations of finding a camping spot and had actually considered finding a dispersed spot in the ONF. We found a pull through spot in loop C that was semi-level and decided to just stay!
Several loops are closed as lots of repairs and new infrastructure being built and bathrooms are closed with porta pottys on site. They do have potable water available. $24 a night.
The Heart O’ The Forest Trail head is just off loop E and we hiked it early Friday morning!

Great campground in the woods. We came in Sunday morning and found a spot for our 30' trailer. For the next month or so, only loop A is open, but it hasn't been completely full yet. Porta Potties and potable water tank at the moment until the construction is done. T-Mobile service is good.

Cute campground in the middle of the huge forest, there's A-E loops so plenty of sites to choose from. We got there around 5pm on a Sunday and there were still plenty of first come first served spots left. Clean bathrooms, running water, $24 a night

Like others, we showed up late and we’re still able to easily find a spot for our camper. The site sizes vary a lot, from back in to pull thrus. Best way to see what sites are open are to check the bulletin board at the beginning of each loop. Payment is super easy. You can either write down your credit card number or scan a QR code. $24/night. $12/night with a pass. Bathrooms are small but clean. No hand soap provided. Super convenient place to stay if you plan on hiking Hurricane Ridge

Pulled in at 4PM on a Saturday. Plenty of spots. Remaining sites were not too level, but we lived with it. Some AT&T and Verizon cell service. 5 down/.5 up. Maybe it'll improve later. Quiet so far. Loop D.

Only Loop A is open now. Something like 19 spaces. Arrived late afternoon on Sunday and found it about 3/4 full. Large rigs might not fit. I passed on a few open spaces since I didn’t think my truck (22ft long, 7ft wide) would fit.

AT&T cell service was available but a little slow during evening hours. Much faster in the morning.
The “Heart O Forest Trailhead” is in Loop E and a scenic hike right from the campground. 2.5 miles out and back (5miles total) mostly flat and easy. The last .75mi is moderate with some big steps and steep declines. Dead ends at the stream so don’t push to the end if you’re not comfortable. There is no great reward at the end, just a steep climb back up.

Typical NP campground. Lots of sites closed for low season (and maybe covid?). Not a lot of hiking options during winter unless you have snow gear.

Road to Hurricane Ridge was closed even though it’s supposed to be open on weekends.

Quiet campground compared to Hoh or Sol Duc. The registration board doesn't seem to be updated well, most all sited had a tag in the slot showing they are full, have to check each site individually. We got lucky and found a side pull in site as most are pull in and not that level for a van.
Saw a hose bib with potable water in large parking area between loop A and loop B.

Only $20. Heated bathrooms. Came up tonight with no reservations.

Differently from previous reviews, haven't had an issue with leveling the truck for my rooftop tent, didn't even had to use leveling techniques (ie. rocks/logs). Yes, some sites have a little grade but nothing major and shouldn't be a showstopper for anyone. Also, had a quiet night with no lousy neighbor - I'm here at winter thought and there aren't many people around, summer is different, but that should go without saying for all National Parks campgrounds...

It is a campground... Close, loud neighbors, no privacy. Lots of spots, but most of them are uneven, no good for our rooftop tent. We usually try to find wild camping spots on iOverlander, but this part of PNW has too few.

we pulled in late, expecting it to be full but there were plenty of sites available, even with one loop closed off. but a lot of the sites were on a slope so we were limited as we sleep in the car. clean washrooms, and quiet night. 20$. would recommend!

Pretty small for our setup, atleast (truck with awning and tent attached to awning). But not too high traffic for first weekend after the govt shutdown. Heated bathroom with running water if you’re going in the winter. Does require camping fee and fee to enter the Natl Park, but the park rangers do a good job checking up on people before heading to bed.

great spot. most sites are small and not even close to being level but it's in a beautiful area. only place around you could have a fire during the ban. bathrooms had running water and were clean.
