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.

Don’t play here

If you could give negative stars I would. This course is a dirt patch with holes scattered. It’s in terrible condition, the greens are decent but trying to play a second shot from dirt with hardly any grass to be seen makes for a frustrating round. The bunkers are full of rocks and not even raked before the first round of the day. Save your time and money, go elsewhere. DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE.

Worst "Golf Course" I have ever played

This is easily the worst so called "golf course" I have ever played in my entire life. We quite after 9 holes because there was no grass anywhere on the course except the greens. How do this even happen? You have to really try to make a golf course condition this bad. What a complete waste of $45. How is this place even still open? Please, Please Please, do yourself a favor and cross this course off of your list. Save your $45 or spend it on something you might enjoy, because this place is not it. If I could give less than 1 star I would have.

It has to be false advertising to call this a golf course and charge people $40 to hit balls.

Embarrassing

This place should be ashamed to call itself a golf course. The City of Carson and L.A. County should either completely renovate the course or close it down. The fairways are all hard packed dirt with gopher holes all over the place. You will ruin ur equipment playing on this. The conditions are the worst I have ever seen. Never ever, I mean Never ever again.

Dirty patch

This is the worst cap golf course in Los Angeles County. There are no Fairways there's only dirt out there and lots of gopher holes and all kinds of holes in the Fairway. I am so disappointed with this golf course it is so poorly maintained it's not worth playing at any price. I used to love this course. Looking forward to New Management taking over this course and bringing it back to its Glory.

Worst track EVER!!!!

Do not waste your money. It is by far the worst track I've ever seen. There's literally NO GRASS IN THE FAIRWAYS, NO SAND IN BUNKERS (ALL ROCKS). I wish I read reviews before booking. They should give me my money back.

Look forward to playing again

Having come from Carlsbad (north county san diego), found this course and decided to play.

Although the course is in somewhat rough shape fairway wise, I enjoyed the course as a whole. It was a challenge to hit the ball off hard pan, however I looked at it as another challenge of golf. The greens were very spongy (time frame 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.) but I was able to find the right power and speed to grab 3 pars and a birdie after about the 7th . One can only imagine there being plush fairways at one time. Maybe again, one day in the future.

Otherwise looking forward to visiting again. Had fun.

P.S. Somehow lost my 50 degree Mizuno Wedge. "Chipper" is etched in red on it and would appreciate being notified if it has been turned in. Thank you. 760 668 5504 (call or text)

Terrible fairway conditions...

I’d definitely say this course has more dirt than grass, and that is no exaggeration! The tee boxes were in poor condition as well. I think the greens were decent, but the rest of the course is an eyesore. So sad, course layout has a lot of potential.

Dirt fairways

I haven’t played in 10 years. Fairways are mostly dirt. This is the worst course I’ve ever played.

I heard this course was going to be closed. The conditions should be clearly advertised if no maintenance at all is occurring.

Greens

The fairways were always bare with dirt but now it’s even worse. The greens were always good and a reason to go back even with bad fairways but now even the greens are bad and dying. Not worth full price even with the $5.00 discount at the starter.

The course was as expected. They are going to close it and they haven't put any money in maintaining it. I love the layout and the greens, but the fairways are barren.

Unplayable conditions

Fairways have no grass and we get the impression that there is no maintenance. Grounds are riddled with gopher holes and hard pan areas. 80% hard pan areas. This course needs serious rehab.
