About
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.

Mostly dirt, nice greens! Photo submitted by LeeDaBord on 08/31/2013
Do not play until they fix their fairways.
Saw pictures online, and it looked like a beautiful course. We go there to play 18 and the fairways has no grass, it was all dirt and sand - besides a few patches. We had to pick our balls up and put it on a small grass batch to make it worth our money, The greens and tee boxes were fine, but the fairways weren't even worth a dollar.
Needs work
The course is in awful condition no grass holes everywhere this course needs a lot of work.

Man…
Long story short…
Could’ve been a nice place with decent layout if they we’re properly maintained
City must’ve abandoned this place since COVID
95% dirt (no green you cant even see your golf balls)
Its not cheap but they gave me sleeve of balls (you’ll figure out why). and hot dog for each player after 9th hole
(beers are cheap. Under 5 bux)
If you are willing to play, make sure to bring your old set of golf club (my forged irons became “ouch”)

Great if greens are what matter to you
I played there 2 years ago and was surprised by the course conditions. Yes most of the reviews here tell you to avoid this place because the fairways are awful etc… But if you want a good layout (better than most OC courses) and great greens than Victoria is the one.
I would argue that the questionable lies in the fairways are actually a positive since they are great practice for contact.
Greens rolled surprisingly fast and true, which is (in my opinion) what matters most.
If you’re looking for green lush fairways, this isn’t the place, but if you care about greens and layout then you should give it a chance. Staff was awesome and they give you a sleeve of balls and hot dog with your green fee. I’ll go there again!

Worst course in America
Golf now should not be allowed to sell this golf course online. The photos are a complete misrepresentation of the course. Every single far way is solid dirt! The course and golf now Should pay me lost time for playing here! This is unequivocally the worst course in America!

Worst Course in LA.
The conditions of this course are easily the worst I’ve played anywhere in my 30 years golfing. The fairways are hard compact dirt and rocks, and the entire course is pockmarked with insane amounts of Gopher holes. They also consistently run out of carts.
It’s not a bad layout, but there has been zero dollars spent on course maintenance in the few years.
The best part about this course is the driving range, it’s a shame really because there is so much potential, but I’d recommend playing anywhere else.

Wasteland
They have lost the course. The greens are ok but the rest of the course looks like the day after the apocalypse.
Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing The Links at Victoria Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.
Tip
Course needs a lot of work.... like a lot of work. Staff is friendly and the range is really nice if you can find a stall. A good portion of the fairways have dirt patches and some are all dirt. I usually play the back 9 because those fairways are in better conditions. It’s a good course to practice your game given that there is no traffic.
Hi, Contrerasz382! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at The Links at Victoria Golf Course!
They gave up except for the greens
Worst course conditions I’ve ever seen. The fairways are literally either bare or it’s a minefield of groundhog holes. The greens were nice but I’m pretty sure the county has completely abandoned hope in caring for this course. Wont play here again

I've Player better Cow Pastures
This course simply should not be allowed to function as a golf course. Beyond unacceptable. While the greens are in good shape, the fairways and bunkers are atrocious. The fairways are a series of thousands of gophers holes, (no grass, only weeds, and both holes and dirt mounds), and the bunkers are like concrete mix. And I'm not kidding. Would have quit and not played, but I'm from out of town and was with a couple of friends.

Terrible course condition
DO not play at this course as it’s fairway condition is atrocious and potentially harmful to you. It’s ashamed that teeoff.com even offer this course!

I feel like I was ripped off.
The course is a complete wreck!
The guy at the check in desk said that there were some dirt spots out in the fairways but to just drop the ball on some grass. There was hardly any grass to drop on and what was there, was mainly weeds.
GolfNow needs to drop this course off of their list.
Do not play here!

Cannot Overexaggerate How Bad the Fairways Are
Hands down the fairways are in the worst condition I’ve ever played on. 75% dirt and rocks. Rounds should be half the price with the state of the course. Otherwise would be a nice course. But just unforgivable.

SCAM
Don;t trust the photos. there is NO grass in the fairway. You literally lose your ball in the middle of the fairway because there are rodent holes everywhere. I can't believe they are open
