Victoria Hills Golf Club located in Deland has jaw-dropping beauty. Golfers will appreciate Roland Garl's vigorous bunkering, which oscillates between the expansive and the intricate, depending on the hole. An array of pot bunkers, waste bunkers, native wetlands, water sprays, bunkers integrated within a natural setting, and elevation changes rarely seen on a Florida golf course await you. Garl's course is graceful and feminine

Victoria Hills could easily be called "The State of Florida's Garden of Golf,"- inland settings such as this are virtually unprecedented in this state. Yet while the splendor and natural beauty of the property are notable, this is not simply eye candy and lazy golf. Victoria Hills, as one player put it, "is a blast to play". In any evaluation, it's difficult to imagine how a golfer would not rate a round here as one of their most enjoyable in Florida.

Victoria hills in February

The course has changed over the years. The course and greens were in poor condition probably due to lack of water

The course is challenging but I love it.

Front 9 greens are bad and will be for awhile

The front 9 greens were applied with the wrong chemical by the now fired greens keeper from what I was told. They are unplayable since they are hard as rock and looks like Hyroseed had dried and turned in to concrete.

The staff was extremely friendly and appreciated everyone playing their course even with green issue.

Tried Again

Ive posted several times about this course and while last spring/early summer showed improvement, its taken a nose dive since then. The former greenskeeper applied the wrong chemical to the greens and the front 9 is really rough, back nine is much better. Bottom line, the owner doesnt want to invest the money needed to make this a consistent course. He's cheap, takes the cheap way out and because of that, you have a cheap golf course. The staff is continuously changing and that's a reflection on leadership. And overall management is severely lacking. This is the second superintendent that used the wrong chemical in the last 3 years, damaging greens. It begs the question, who is managing here?

That said, its a fantastic layout, which is the only reason to come back here.

Hack

The greens had very little grass and the fairways were not that much better. Not much fun hitting off dirt and puttting on ice.

Challenging layout but course needs an investment in greens and tee blocks

In spite of that we will continue to come back

No greens on front 9, 5 greens on back nine. Maybe worth price of bucket of balls. Try over seeding. Like playing on the cart path...

Worse than Glen Abbey

This course has really gone down hill. No grass on the fairways, greens are fast like putting on concrete shouldn’t be anymore than $20 to play

Front 9 greens are horrendous

When playing, I heard from the other 3 that I went off with that the greens keeper put down or sprayed the the wrong chemical on them. They were hard as rock and looked and smelled like dried Hydro Seed. They let the grounds keeper go. Good thing. It will take a long time to get those greens back in a playable condition. This time of year- end of Jan- the grass is dormant- but those greens were really bad.

We played in a 2 ball behind a 3 ball who persistently took a long time to play the course holding us up. We eventually had to force our way past them. If there had been a ranger then we could have avoided this unpleasant and unnecessary hold up.

Disappointed

Played here a few years back, what happened? Front nine greens in terrible shape some kind of fungus. Fairways are bare in quite a few spots. The clubhouse and restaurant are still busy, but no money for maintenance on course. Hopefully they can bring this course back. For the price, it’s a good place to practice..

Beautiful layout Poor condition

This was one of the most interesting layouts that I have played on in Florida but the conditions were very poor especially the front nine greens. If they would improve the conditions, this would be one of the best golf courses to play.

I like this course

this is an interesting course that I would play more often except for it being about an hour away plus some $15 in gas and tolls...yesterday the greens were very hard and fast with little grass and was impossible to putt on consistently...even 5 putted a par 3 and am not usually that bad...there is some terrain variations, giant sand traps, with most holes very different from each other. If you are closer, I would recommend a visit. They do not allow carts in the parking lot which is annoying for equipment loading

Nice Course

Enjoyed another great day. Only recommendation is that maybe the carts be allowed closer to the greens since us senior citizens don't move as fast as we used to.
