The Bear’s Club & Trump National

Few addresses in American golf carry the mystique of these two Jupiter enclaves. The Bear’s Club is Jack Nicklaus’s own home club, an ultra-private, invitation-only sanctuary of a few dozen estate homes wrapped around a Nicklaus Signature course, with a membership that reads like a roll call of the game’s greats. A short distance away, Trump National Golf Club Jupiter, built on the former Ritz-Carlton golf grounds, pairs a full-service private club with a gated community of estate homes, villas, and residences around another championship layout. Both sit at the top of the market and the height of privacy, where only a small number of homes are ever available and many change hands before they reach the open market. This is, after all, part of what makes Jupiter the golf capital of the world. Homes here range from the low millions to well beyond ten million for the premier estates, and the best of them are rarely advertised, which is exactly where a connected local team matters.
