Every campground we've been to so far (at least, that I can remember) has stated in bold "NO clotheslines connected to trees". This includes especially State parks.
We usually use one of the folding drying racks that people earlier in this thread posted about. Easy to set up, compact, work great. We've never had anyone say anything about using that to dry clothes.
Most private campgrounds we've been to, the prohibition on hanging clothes to dry is usually lifted to certain extent on weekends -- mostly in order to allow people to easily dry swimsuits and towels, and also (from what I can tell) to avoid having the camp hosts become "clothing police" to the weekenders. This is a "within reason" unwritten rule.
Interestingly, at a State park that wife and I camped at recently have a pair of 4x4 posts about 8 feet high at each campsite for people to string clothes drying line between. Possibly relating to an earlier post, this campground really was mostly a tenting campground, so people didn't have campers to hang stuff in or on or around.
