About the host
Hosted by Pat
Hi, I’m Pat and our family is from West Chester, PA and the proud owners of our beloved 100-year-old Victorian home. We have cherished this house since 1992, and it holds a special place in our hearts.
I enjoy gardening, restoring old homes, cooking for a crowd, boating on the Chesapeake, watching our beautiful sunsets and soaking up the natural beauty of the Chesapeake Bay.
Hosting allows us to share this peaceful slice of the shore with others. Whether you’re here for a relaxing weekend, a family gathering, or simply to enjoy the bay breeze and sunsets, we hope you feel right at home.
We’ve poured years of care into preserving the unique charm of this home while adding just the right updates for modern comfort. I look forward to sharing it with you!

Why they chose this property
We chose Betterton because it felt like home from the start. My husband spent his childhood summers across from Turkey Point, and when our kids wanted to bring friends along for boat trips, we went looking for a spot that had it all — a beach, calm waters, and no sea nettles. Betterton had everything we hoped for. It’s been our peaceful escape ever since — a place where life slows down and lasting memories are made.
What makes this property unique
Our home is a lovingly maintained 100-year-old Victorian just a short walk from Betterton Beach. What makes it unique is the balance of history and comfort — original details paired with modern touches throughout. Guests especially love the screened front porch and the private stand-alone screen room we call the casita, tucked off the back patio. The landscaped yard offers plenty of privacy, making it a peaceful spot to relax after a day on the water. We've owned the home since 1992, and it’s full of character, charm, and decades of family memories.
