“ My wife and I had a wonderful visit to Jones Fish Camp . I had last visited with my Mom and Dad years ago and it brought back good memories of the time when we were there. ”
“ So, I have been wanting to try this place for a while. Every time I checked the reviews, they either loved the place or hated the place. It seemed there was no in between. I also heard from quite a few people who said it was not worth going to. I am so dang tickled I didnt listen to a single review or person and tried it for my darn self. Sweet Baby Jesus! It was delicious!! From the first bite of hush puppies, that tarter sauce that is pickle based and to die for, the whole flounder is finger lickin good, the seafood platter with jumbo shrimp, scallops and deviled crab was no match for my hungry hubs, and crushed ice. Yes. Crushed ice. Goes well with the awesome sweet tea and a bud light. The salad was good and the ranch dressing was perfect. The sour slaw was good enough to lick the bowl after. The interior of the building looks like it has been remodeled and its beautiful. We were greeted in the parking lot by two of the sweetest employees ducks. I didnt get a chance to catch their names, but as we were leaving, they came back up the hill and sent us on our way with well wishes and to come back soon, ya hear? We sure will be back, hoping for every Friday night, Lord willin! ”
