Just about every place has its pros and cons. Staying at the Thomson Causeway campground on opening day means that the weather can be unpredictable.
It also means that not all of the kinks have been worked out yet. How many COE employees does it take to replace a hot water heater? I'm not sure because there still wasn't any hot water in the shower after three days. I know there were at least two hot water heaters unloaded from pickup trucks and what seemed like half a dozen employees working on the problem. When I left after four days, there was still a sign up indicating no hot water yet. The dumpsters weren't there when I arrived, but they did arrive later in my stay.
But I wasn't camping here for the campground services. The draw here is the Mississippi River and its backwaters, where wildlife is abundant.
