The Everglades Club is a social club in Palm Beach, Florida. When its construction began in July 1918, it was to be called the Touchstone Convalescent Club, and it was intended to be a hospital for the wounded of World War I. But the war ended a few months later, and it changed into a private club.

Paris Singer and his good friend, the architect Addison Mizner, were visiting Palm Beach in the spring of 1918. Singer decided to build a hospital with Mizner as the architect. Singer had already built three hospitals in France for the wounded. It was during World War I when only war-related buildings could be built. Construction began in July. (The site at the west end of Worth Avenue formerly contained Alligator Joe's, a tourist attraction.) By November 1918 seven residential villas and a medical center had been built on the north side of Worth Avenue, across from the main building. Singer purchased laboratory and surgical equipment and fittings for an operating room. Singer sent out as many as 300,000 invitations to eligible Army and Navy officers, who had to be screened and had to be able to pay their own room and board.

However, World War I had ended, and most former soldiers wanted to go home. The hospital was reenvisioned as a private club; the medical equipment was donated to a hospital in West Palm Beach. There was a main building, eight separate villas, tennis courts, a parking garage across the street, and a yacht basin. The club opened on 25 January 1919. Paris Singer was the President of the club and he decided who could become a member. For its second season in 1920, Mizner supervised the construction of a nine-hole golf course and the landscaping of the club's 60 acres. He also built Via Mizner, an addition on Worth Avenue with eleven apartments and sixteen shops.

Mizner's design for the Everglades Club was widely considered to be the biggest success of his career." It helped establish a new architectural style for Florida. In the club's first season Mizner received four architectural commissions. He went on to become America's foremost society architect of his era.

Singer began his club with twenty-five charter members. Two years later, the membership was closed at 500 members. Eliza Osgood Vanderbilt Webb (1860–1936) was one of its earliest female members. Businessman Jack C. Massey was a member.

An additional nine holes were added to the golf course in 1930.

Much sturdier than it seems!
I have a Lab/Pyrenees mix which is a serial toy defluffer. I truly believed these would be in the garbage by the end of a day or 2. Yes the squeakers are in the land of unnamed squeaker graves, but the actual pockets and Velcro lasting like a champ! It takes him a few minutes to unroll them and get the treats out of the pockets. When he gets the late night energy boosts I fill them up and it gets him calm for bed. He will bring them to me if he wants to search for the treats. One of our favorite things. Plus, they are adorable. Total tail wagger!

Puppy loves it!
Style: Turtle
This turtle is adorable! My puppy absolutely loves it! It keeps her entertained for a while which is a godsend when potty training, and when I’m working from home. The pockets an are big enough to can stuff them full of tons of kibble or treats. She has so much fun playing with & pulling it apart and getting to the good stuff inside and the crinkly noise is a bonus for her as well. It definitely holding up.

Good value, fun play. Poor strings
Style: Monster
This turned out to be one of my Doberman puppy's favorite toys. He loves it and takes it everywhere. I didn't expect much, but the moment it came out of the box he loved it. The colors are still bright after a month of being knawed and chewed on. He loves playing tug a war with it, though the strings are not standing up to well to that. There are three of them, so he has choices. Pluse, he has an extra when missing one. I think they are wonderfully well made and shaped well to fit for him to chew on. He hasn't torn any stuffing out of it and tears either despite his daily rough play. It is fun watching for seeing him attack those poor little guys. The strings are only issue. It it slowly coming off in pieces. They are still hanging on, but dying a slow death. Pieces are being found all over the place. I keep a eye to try to make sure he isn't swallowing any. I, also love the cute designs. The three different ones are so cute I don't have a favorite and neither does my puppy. He will play with it for a while, not just tug a war. He likes the low low sounding squeaker. Low and now loud and annoying. The materials have a nice smooth feeling and no rough material. I don't mind holding on to it for tug a war or to throw it. It is easy to throw for him. Light but enough weight to send it though the air. Great value fore the price and the amount of three. I would just take the strings off. They could possibly be a danger hazard. Overall, I am glad I bought and a good value.
