Chester's Highway Inn on Acklins Island
Located in the northern end of Acklins, Chester's sits on a huge interior bonefish flat, which often has tailing bonefish right out in front of the lodge. There are also many good flats accessible from the lodge on foot, by kayak or bicycle. If you rent a truck for your stay, you have access to many other good flats, all from 5 to 30 minutes away, and all located on the northern end of the island. It would take weeks to explore all of the flats just on the northern end of Acklins, and all less than 30 minutes away.
The lodge is newly built and modern, with a/c rooms overlooking the beautiful bonefish flat out front! There are three units, and each unit has a bedroom with two full beds, and an attached full bathroom. Each unit also has a living/dining room consisting of a breakfast table, pull out sofa, small fridge, microwave & coffee maker. Rooms are cleaned daily and the fridge is stocked and kept supplied with beer and soft drinks. A new dining room overlooking the bonefish flat was completed in 2008.
The lodge Your view each morning!Here's what one of our guests had to say:
"Vince, we had a great week on Acklin Island. We ended up getting the guide,Terrance, for all six days. He was really good and we all did well with him. We caught 57 bones w/ Terrance and 43 bones on our own. The flats Terrance fished were huge and full of large schools. Lost a few to Lemons(3) and Cudas(2). Rick found a huge school at Nancy Cove fishing by himself and caught 22 in 4 hours. Bob and I went back the next day and caught 17. Rick and Ed went back the next day but they did not show. I guess three days in a row is too much to expect. Caught a few down to the left of the lodge and way to the right at the road culvert. Rick caught a 10+ fish and I got 2 over 8 w/ Terrance. Rick and Ed (84 years old) fished together as did Bob and I. The food and lodge were great. Julius and Arnett were wonderful. Thanks." John Bowden, Raleigh NC
