Camp David
The president's wooded mountain retreat
Camp David is the country retreat of the U.S. president, tucked in the forested Catoctin Mountains of Maryland. Officially a naval support facility and closed to the public, it has hosted world leaders and pivotal diplomacy, most famously the 1978 Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel. Its exact layout is kept vague for security, and it does not appear as a labeled destination on public maps.
