Victoria Golf Course
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
Not much fun.
T boxes and greens in good condition. Grass in the fairways pretty sparse. Lots of hard dirt, mud in the low spots, lots of bumps and holes. Great grass on the driving range! Too bad the fairways don’t look that way.
Poor conditions. Lots of hard pan...A LOT!!! Very bumpy fairway, so that makes the rough only worse. ATV would be better than a golf cart. So sad because the potential to be a very outstanding golf course is there.
Improving
I have played this course a number of times. The course keeps improving little by little, but it is still built on a landfill so there is not much more they can do. There was a real back on the first tee today - but the starter did an excellent job of breaking up the back up while still getting people out as close to their start time as possible. Very impressed with his handling of the situation. He also makes sure that walk ins get out as well. Job well done!
Victory
Great bargain golf, with fun layout and challenging, excellent condition greens. Grass from tee box to green areas is spotty, but the great layout makes up for it. Greens in great shape, with subtle, challenging slopes that keep you focused.
Landfill Fairways
Tee boxes are okay
Fairways are dirt (mostly)
Greens are the best part. Fast and true but even some of them are weedy and patchy.
At least the carts are new.
New driving range is the only reason I'll go back
Victoria
The greens are sooo nice. The fairways are pretty bad. Great layout pace of play was good guy in the pro shop was really nice If you fix the fairways. They will come
Much Improved
Victoria has had quite a bad rap due primarily to the condition of the fairways, i.e., lack of grass, despite a number of prior attempts to remedy the situation at great expense. I hadn't played this course for at least 4 years, and was very pleasantly surprised to see less bare patches in the fairways than I remembered. Yes, the bare patches are still there in practically every hole, and yes, the weeds are still everywhere, but I found more grass covered grounds than ever before. The greens are in excellent shape as they always were, and there are plenty of challenging par 4's to test most players, especially when the winds are blowing hard in the afternoons. If you can get out there before 7:00 AM as a single, you'll be allowed to go out on the back nine first which can result in a great POP, like 3 1/2 hours walking. I'd imagine you could shave off another hour if you were to ride. When was the last time you enjoyed a fast round like that?! FYI, the renovated driving range is now open, and it looks fantastic, and the short game practice area continues to be a very good feature. Also, kudos to friendly staff at check-in. Overall, no, the course is not perfect, but it's still a fun course and a very good value especially if you are a senior walker with a country senior card. I'll be back for sure.
Golfers need to think about it.
I have been playing here for 20 years. It is sad to see their fairway problems sometimes, But it is OK to me because they have the perfect greens and they have nice people in the club house.
Think about it!, Golfers!
Rounding time and their rate is very reasonable and no pressure for tee times at all. How nice it is. Feel free there.
If any golfers consider of Time factor, nice green, and good customer services (specially person named Joe there), go to links at the Victoria. You are going to love this course.
I definitely recommend this course with 100% confidence.
Potential to be good
This was a fun and challenging course. Has lots of potential to be a good course with lots of TLC and maybe some updated golf carts.
Terrible maintenance and ownership decisions
The greenside bunkers were like concrete - greens were uncut and shaggy - fairways and tee boxes were uncut. These are all easily fixable with a greenskeeper that has a brain. Or perhaps its ownership that has cut back on manpower because they have lost so much revenue on having no drivng range for months. To think they are spending a huge amount on a new driving range that was not needed, and not put that money into the awful fairways and basic course maintenance, shows how bad the ownership is. And all that money they spent on a new parking lot. Another waste of money that could have been used to improve the COURSE. With terrible ownership decisions like these, one day this course will close down.
Could be really good
The course has a nice layout; but many fairways are missing grass. If there was grass on every fairway, it could be a really beautiful course. The use of wild flowers (which were in bloom) was really nice; unless you have allergies. All in all, the staff was really friendly and helpful.
Broken lawn mower
Greens here are great but tee boxes and fairways need beyond a lot of help if you need practice hitting from the rough this is the place for you the whole course is pretty much that "rough" I won't play here unless I absolutely cannot find a time elsewhere.
