We came here in mid-October, and I knew that the dump station would be closed. What I didn't know was that everything was closed. The store, the bathrooms, the showers, the gas station, everything. All the water was shut off, even the fire hydrants. There is no cell service and the pay phones are shut off. At the North Visitors Center in the Museum park staff are telling people they can get water at the water bottle filling station over at the store. But there was NO water. Why didn't NPS staff know this? There was no camp host and you could not pay using the iron ranger, you have to pay online. But there is no cell service. You have to leave and drive several miles to get service. No way to call 911. All the sites have had tags placed on them falsely labeling them as reserved, and there is a sign at the entrance that says that the CG is full, but online 90% of the sites show available. We overheard some people ask the staff at the VC about getting a spot but they were told by park staff that the CG was full and that they'd have to go online to see if there was an opening. At the visitors center they had an announcement that the cafe at the south entrance would be open weekends until 2pm. We drove there on Sunday and at 1pm they were closed and looked like they'd been closed for days. The tree canopy was so thick in the CG that we got only 1% charge on our batteries from solar and had spotty at best satellite reception. In the CG there are multiple roads but no signs saying where they go. Drive around the park and there are NO signs for most of the park. Nothing to tell you that you are coming up on an intersection. Manzanita was the only CG that had a sign, none of the others even had signs. The one time I saw a Law Enforcement vehicle it was being driven by 2 unarmed park naturalists out taking pictures of wildlife. I did see a Law Enforcement vehicle patrol the campground one time in 3 days but have no confidence that it was an actual Law Enforcement Ranger.

Nice clean campground, nice bathrooms, sadY the showers werent open due to a tree falling on them. But no big deal, they were rebuilding them. My only complaint is the prices in the store for souvenirs, extremely over priced so we bought nothing.
