Donald Trump Proposes Developing Florida Golf Course into Presidential Retreat
Donald Trump has proposed developing one of his Florida golf courses into a presidential retreat for future presidents, which he described as similar to Camp David.
Springfield, MO, October 7, 2026 —
Former President Donald Trump has put forth a proposal to transform one of his golf courses located in Florida into a presidential retreat. This facility would be intended for use by future presidents, drawing a comparison to the existing presidential retreat, Camp David.
The specific Florida golf course designated for this potential development has not been publicly identified. Details regarding the scope of the proposed renovations, the timeline for such a project, or the estimated costs associated with developing and maintaining the retreat were not provided in the proposal.
Trump’s vision, as stated, is to create a dedicated space for sitting presidents that would function similarly to Camp David, the U.S. presidential retreat in Maryland. Camp David has served as a country home and a site for leaders to convene and conduct official business away from Washington D.C. since its designation as a presidential retreat by Franklin D. Roosevelt.
The proposal’s feasibility, potential funding mechanisms, and any required governmental approvals or permits for such a conversion remain unspecified. The announcement does not include information on whether any formal plans have been submitted or are under consideration by relevant authorities. Further details on the initiative are not presently available.
