According to this page, the Parkway is open to traffic, but all of the campgrounds and other Parkway facilities will be closed during the shutdown.

Yup.....rode the BRP today from Blowing Rock to Highway 80 no problem. As stated, all campgrounds and visitor centers are closed. Great day for a ride up there. Colors are great in the upper elevations.
