About the host

Hosted by Billy Carroll manager

Host profile image
We have lived in Bethany Beach for nearly 30 years. We have been involved in the maritime industry for over 70 years. My Dad was Chief Mate on many Liberty ships, owned a lobster boat and supplied ships with parts and materials-handling. Many of my children pursued a maritime college career path and then my husband and I started a non-profit to train and place deckhands on tug boats, ferries and cruise ship lines.
We decided to christen the house, THE PILOT HOUSE! A pilot is a Captain of unlimited tonnage who navigates ships through dangerous or congested waterways, such as the harbor, bay and winding rivers with shallow shoals, changing currents and challenging bends. In all kinds of weather, these pilots bring the ships up river to safe harbor in Wilmington or Philadelphia. Some members of our family, who grew up in this house, are pilots. As our salute to these brave men and women who risk their lives, daily, we named our house, THE PILOT HOUSE! We love this house and the small town atmosphere of the "Quiet Resorts" and hope you do, too!

Why they chose this property

This very private community we always loved the setting.
The house is designed to maximize covenience and utility for a large family yet maintain individual privacy. The Kitchen and Living area are on the second floor for the view. The open 2 story foyer unites upstairs with downstairs. Yet the bedroom occupants can get quiet respite from the rest of the house by simply closing their door.
It is secluded yet very convenient. It is a 3 hour drive from the bridges and tunnels into NYC. It takes less than 3 hours from Philadelphia. It takes 45 minutes to get to Salisbury, MD. Baltimore and Washington are each about 2-3 hours. All final driving times depend upon traffic so we always leave as early as possible.

But the property is very convenient to local attractions, businesses and shopping as well. The beaches are just down the street. The State Park system is across the street. Ocean City amusement parks and night life are a 15 minute drive. Dewey Beach and Rehoboth Beach are 10-15 minutes away in the opposite direction.

What makes this property unique

There is enough to do within walking/biking distance that you can literally stay here for the week and never use your car. However, Movie Theaters, Amusement Parks, Water Slides, Restaurants, Grocery Stores and other attractions are very close.

We fell in love with the Salt Pond and the activities here. We especially loved kayaking and crabbing with young children. Early morning sunrises with a cup of coffee and a camera while sitting at the dock or later at night watching the sunset are a unique treasure here.

If you have young children and/or grandchildren you must visit FUNLAND in Rehoboth Beach. This family owned amusement park has been in continuous operation for over 60 years and is considered a National Treasure. The rides designed for toddlers are so amazingly simple and inexpensive for young parents that it is a miracle that they still thrive economically. If you head to Ocean City one of the best things to do with little kids 12 and under is the Pirate Treasure hunt. You go out on a real PIRATE boat and hunt for treasure. It's a must every year for our little ones!
