The Links at Victoria Golf Course has a convenient location in Carson that is easily accessible from the South Bay, downtown Los Angeles, or Orange County. William Bell, the mastermind who crafted the Torrey Pines courses, also designed the Links at Victoria. The course has a traditional design that features wide, gently undulating fairways and large, well manicured greens. It's not an overly challenging course but there are some holes that will make you think and you'll find that accuracy and a good strategy are both generously rewarded. The wide-openness of the front nine provides a gentle start to the golf course while the tighter back mine presents greater challenges. It's a good round for learning beginners and more advanced golfers will find it to be a fun, quick round for an affordable price.

Very poor management, as far as, course conditions, gof carts, etc.

I can’t understand how this specific course stays open!! Probably, the only good thing that they have have, is a driving range!
The course, is so terrible, that only people who who are desperate to play golf, will come here to play. ‘Cause, other courses, are ALL booked!!

Zero grass in the fairways

I get that this course is inexpensive. The layout itself is actually not bad if they had grass in the fairways it could be a solid course. Rough is just over grown un maintained sections of the course. The tee boxes are nice and flat and well maintained. Greens are not awful either in the par threes your fine but the par fours are so frustrating that we decided to skip 12 and 13 completely. 14-18 are the only holes on the course that appear to be maintained.
Driving range facilities are good and it is great to see that there is an option to play a form of golf in the area.

Cup half full

What you expect for the price.
I like the layout, greens are challenging.
Back nine is better than front.
To be fair some wouldnt even hit fairways even if it had grass.
Staff is cool.
Not the place to bring a nice set.

Price nearly doubled and course is still garbage

7 or 8 months ago, this was the best golf deal in town. Sure, the conditions were trash back then too - but you could get in 18 holes for under $30 and be done in under 3 hours. Can't beat that.

Since then, the price has nearly doubled and they've done zilch to improve the course conditions. Absolutely absurd and embarrassing to charge a $41 tee time to play a round in a patch of dirt.

Victoria gets a bad rap

You can finish in 3.5 to 4 hours, rarely waiting. Sure there are a lot of bare spots/hard dirt in the fairways on many holes, but hey, you can get an extra 30+ yards on your drives! You can find grass/weed patches to move your ball onto...or just practice your hardpan shots. Greens are in decent shape...better than some other courses in the area (just fix your ball mark people! Geezus). Tee boxes were also decent.

Fantastic Greens

If the course could grow grass on all the fairways this course would be really good. The greens are fantastic! They have never been able to consistently grow any grass in the fairways on about 6 holes. We just move the ball to the patches around the course.

For the amount of money you pay, you should just hit the practice range for a couple of hours

Great Value

I don't want to see any more reviews talking about the fairways conditions as it's a known fact. The course even says so on their website. The greens are very puttable and are the best part about this course. This time, I brought a short tee if I couldn't find any adjacent grass areas to place my ball. I'd recommend walking as the cart ride is extremely bumpy with all of the uneven terrain. Just play this course as a practice facility and don't expect much more until the management can make the fairways better. I played in a little over 3 hours and hit 3-5 balls on my tee shots and 2-3 balls in the fairways. Staff was very nice and accomodating.
