Wow this company is just filled with such welcoming and kind individuals! They really wanted to make sure each person was having fun. We went on a day that was a bit choppy out and they said if we felt uncomfortable or wanted to reschedule it was no problem at all! They cared about our well being and I learned to stand on the surf board first day! Coming back for sure.

Deerfield Beach Arboretum

Reviewed By 646inesm

To me, the star of the park is the African Oil Palm. When it is trimmed, it is simply awesome to behold it's vast frond circumference and the black trunk-stem. The tour guide on Friday morning, April 27th, 2018 was able to answer every one of my questions. I am taking my mother, my daughter and a friend with her daughter next time.

Reviewed By EdsonA681 - Joinville, Brazil

Walk, stay on the beach or just seat in a restaurant, are some of the things you can do. Everything is very clean, safe and well taken care of. You can park your car right on the beach, it is not that expensive. Many restaurants and bars around the boardwalk, so you are spoiled for choices

The Butler House ~ Deerfield Beach Historical Society

The Deerfield Beach Historical Society was founded in 1973, with a directive to identify, preserve and maintain historical sites in the Deerfield Beach area. In 1977 the home of James D. and Alice Butler, early Deerfield pioneers, was bequeathed to the Society and became our permanent home. About the Butler House: This Mediterranean Revival style building was the home of Deerfield Beach pioneers and civic leaders, James D. and Alice Butler. The historic Butler House has been completely restored. It contains many of the original furnishings with the exception of the dining room table that was replaced after the first one was used to board up the west dining room window during the 1928 hurricane. Furnishings include the wicker furniture purchased by the Butlers in 1923 for $500. The plans for the house were obtained from a popular ladies magazine, the Ladies Home Journal of September 1923. It cost $10,000.00 to build and it is situated on almost four city lots. The house is built of hollow tile, the interior walls are plaster on lath and the roof is made from Spanish terra cotta tiles. About James D. and Alice Butler: The Butlers married in 1906 in Texas and came to Deerfield Beach in 1910 on a visit and stayed to become two of Deerfield Beach’s most popular and public-spirited citizens. When Broward County was formed in 1915, Mr. Butler was a member of the first school board. For eight years he served on the Broward County Board of County Commissioners and for four years on the Deerfield Beach City Commission. Mrs. Butler helped found the Deerfield Beach Woman’s Club and they both assisted in the establishment of the First Baptist Church of Deerfield. Mr. Butler died in 1965 and Mrs. Butler died in 1976; both are buried in the Deerfield Beach Cemetery.
