President Trump Plans Florida Golf Course Transformation into Presidential Retreat
President Donald Trump announced plans to transform one of his private Florida golf courses into a presidential retreat, modeled after Camp David.
Richmond Petersburg, VA, October 7, 2026 —
President Donald Trump has announced plans to convert one of his private golf courses located in Florida into a presidential retreat. The proposed retreat would reportedly be modeled after Camp David, the U.S. presidential retreat in Maryland.
The specific golf course designated for this transformation has not been publicly identified in the available information. The announcement details the intention to create a space that can serve as a presidential retreat, drawing a parallel to the established function and model of Camp David.
Camp David, officially the United States presidential retreat, has a long history of serving as a place for presidents to host world leaders, conduct diplomatic meetings, and use as a private getaway. The concept outlined by President Trump suggests a similar role for the Florida property.
Further details regarding the timeline for the project, the scope of the transformation, any associated costs, or the official designation of the property were not provided at the time of the announcement.
