Just tried to get a spot in June but couldnt get past the gate guard. The keys to the camp ground are maintained in the billeting office (located elsewhere) and a key is left at the gate only if you have a reservation. No reservation, no key, no entry.
Would like to add Oregon has a great program for any Service Connected Disabled Veteran. They offer ten days of free camping at any Oregon State Park. You can only stay for up to five days per park but it is a great program and even open to a retiree from Montana. Go the the Oregon State Parks web site and check out the info under Veterans.
I downloaded their application and sent it in with my VA Letter and had my pass in about ten days. The free camping covers all of your hook ups and catv if available.
