Thomson Causeway

Lovely campsites on the causeway. Clean, quiet, and shade! Will definitely come back.

All five star, except the reservation systems needs some tuning, found a different campsite, but could not move reservation, ended up double booking to get site i wanted to move to, thus leaving with with one trailer but 2 separate sites. trying to resolve. Site # 60 is a must reserve.

Pleasant and quiet. Facilities were clean and well kept.

This was my first time at Thomson Causeway camping. Campground was more than what I expected from a government facility. Well laid out, well maintained and clean. Nice they had extra parking for the vehicles overflow. Best camp fire wood I have ever had from a campground shed. Will definitely put this on my list for another visit. Beware of IL state highway 84 though if driving in from the south. Very rough and lots of repairs underway. Hope it gets repaved soon.

We did not expect to have a flat concrete slab on which to set our pop-up. We discovered the picnic table was not made of wood but of some other man-made material that resembled wood. We figured out it was man-made when our new cooking pot stuck to the table as opposed to not sticking as would happen with a wooden table. I had just accidentally brushed the cooking pot bottom along the table as I was removing it from our camping cooking stove. It appears most of the mark on the bottom of our pot will come off. The table size was very nice and extra large. How smart someone was to design a picnic table with an extension built in for wheel chair accessibility. We found the other tables scattered throughout the park were also wheel chair accessible. Very nice and thoughtful for people who are wheel chair bound so everyone can enjoy the park. The shower building was VERY clean and the water was actually warm but not too hot. I did not shower but the shower stalls looked good. Making the reservation and buying firewood was all very easy. Yes, I would reccommend this Thomson Causeway for a good camping experience!

We enjoy our time at this beautiful park.

Well kept older park. Sites are laid out well easy to get in and out. Park is clean and provides great views of the river and associated wildlife.

For us this is the best camping experience for the cost in the country. we have been camping there for many years.

First time camping at Thomson Causeway and it exceeded our expectations. We will be back next year.

We always love this campground. Everything is clean and well taken care of. This last time was no different than usual, until Thursday rolled around. There were so many campers, RV's, tents, etc, that we almost witnessed a couple of accidents with people trying to back in with very little room to do so. Once Friday came, we were all camping on top of each other, it seemed. We were scheduled to have our site until Monday, but couldn't take the "sardine" feel any more, and the fact that you couldn't drink a cup of coffee while watching the river, without the neighbors, seemingly 10 ft away, staring at you. Kind of ruined the morning quiet and solitude. I understand it's a campground, but, I've never experienced having so many people "living " in such tight circumstances. We left Sunday morning, as early as we could.
