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.

Worst Course in California
Literally the worst course you will ever play. Completely dirt fairways with basically cement bunkers accompanied by a million gopher holes on every hole. $37 on a weekday. Absolute robbery by this course. Wouldn’t play here again if it they paid me. Avoid at all costs.
Dirt Fairways
They gave up on the fairways. No reason to water dirt. Pace of play very slow. Will not be returning unless they re-sod the fairways regardless of price.

WORST COURSE IN CALIFORNIA
Literally the worst course you will ever play. Completely dirt fairways, traps are cement, and they charge you like they are a semi decent course. Honestly the biggest cash grab around. Avoid at all costs. Wouldn't play here again if they paid me.

Buyer Beware
The rules are move your ball to a patch of grass since there is very little fairway. The course has given up on any maintenance so it’s only for drivers and putting practice.

Bad Fairways
fairways are in terrible condition. greens are good. probably won’t play here again.
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.
Where is the grass?
The pictures on Golf Now and Google are very deceiving! Majority of the course is dirt/black sand and it doesn’t allow for a smooth game. To add on, the pro shop did a horrible job of controlling Tee times. People were going off in singles, doubles, triples and etc and it really caused many groups to wait on various holes.
The only thing this course has that I really enjoyed were the greens. Putting was super easy and fun.

Schedule a chiropractor for the ride home
I don't know how this course stays in business. There isn't any grass to speak of in the fairways, a straight drive will likely end up in one of the gazillion gopher holes that are out there waiting for you and be sure to take some aspirin before you go out because you're going to throw your back out bouncing all over the place (I did just that). There is stuff bubbling up out of the ground that doesn't look like any natural springs that I've ever seen. The staff is very friendly which makes this such a bummer to write. If you're coming out, hit the range and go home....

Fairway is 80%-90% dirt
I booked this course (including cart) without reading their reviews and was unable to get a refund unless the course was closed due to weather conditions. Unfortunately, it rained the day of my booking and course management claimed the course was playable. Upon my arrival, I learned carts weren’t allowed due to the rain so I had to walk. It was difficult to walk a course in mud. 80%-90% of the fairways was dirt with gopher holes everywhere. Thanks to GolfNow support I was refunded. Play only if don’t mind ruining your irons.

Should’ve started on the back nine
Fantastic greens. Well maintained, not too many ball marks. Front nine is mostly dirt between tee and green. Back nine in much better shape.
Hello, XCJpKmCt5styaTFQGoe1. Thank you for taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass along your feedback to the staff. Thanks for visiting The Links at Victoria Golf Course!
The worst ever!
This golf course became the worst golf course in the whole world !! I guarantee it!!
They even let 8 people play it as a one group.
the most mess up management I ever witnessed!!
there's about 10% fairway greens and 80% dirt with thousands of miles holes !!!
Please do not book the tee time there, even you can't book other courses.

The Worst !!
This golf course is the worst golf course in the whole world!!
I guarantee it!!!!!!!
There's only about 10% fairway greens and the rest are all dirt and rat holes.

Do not play!
I wanted to give the course the benefit of the doubt based on its negative reviews. Sad to say they were right. I booked a tee time which included a cart. Due to rain, I called the course to confirm it was open. Well the course was open but without carts, walking only. Since I couldn’t get a refund, I decided to walk it. Little did I know, the course was 90% dirt. I was walking in mud. Don’t play this course. Take my word. I’m not the type to complain but it’s upsetting this course claims the course is playable. Play if you don’t mind ruining your irons.

Nice greens
Good layout and nice greens, that's it! You can hit a good drive, especially at hole #2, cut the corner, you may never find your ball! Fairways are a disaster.

Calling this a cow pasture is an insult to cows
The fact that they take money is a crime. The fairways were nothing but dirt and mud. Finding grass was a challenge in the ground squirrel village that lives on every hole.

Only played because everything else was booked.
The worst golf course continues to get worse. Didn't think it was possible.
