Sorry meant National Forest Parks
National Forest Parks? There's an malopropism/oxymoron if I ever heard one! :)
There are National Parks and there are National Forests and never the twain shall meet. They are even in different federal government departments: NPS is in Dept. of Interior and USFS is in Dept. of Agriculture.
Perhaps you are referring to National Forest campgrounds?
And yes, calling the specific Ranger District is a good idea, although they will be accessing the same data (Reserve America) as you are, but they might have on-the-ground info as well. Just because a site is empty doesn't mean it hasn't been reserved. Some people have lots of money and never cancel, they just don't show up.
Also, most National Forests have about 35 to 40% of their campsites that are non-reservable and available on a first come/first served basis.
REALLY ? :S Is it all that hard for you to understand what the OP is talking about? I think the other 99.9% of us got the drift,no wonder folks are reluctant to post a question.
