Victoria Hills Golf Club
About
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.

Getting better but still needs work
Better than a month ago but still in pretty bad shape. No visible maintenance going on other than guys sitting in the shade. Tee boxes overgrown and if you hit it slightly off the fairways you will more than likely lose your ball. Best drive of the day on 17 down the middle only to end up in deep weeds. See attached picture. No excuse for that and still charging premium rates. Again getting better but still a long way to go.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, mspollard27. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Victoria Hills Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Great Comeback from April
Greens in April were horrible. Management has done something to make the greens put truer than ever. I only used to play Eagle Dunes when I wanted true puts, but now Victoria Hills Greens are so much better than the last 3-4 years. Congrats to management staff for improving the course from what was a really rough situation in April of this year. Likely to have dormant August/September grass but looking forward to playing again in the fall.
Hi, dhswilliams. We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Victoria Hills Golf Club!
Fun and Challenging Course
Greens were mostly in good condition. The rough could stand to be mowed down a bit. Otherwise, a great day and challenging course.
Hello, CKampouris. Thanks so much for taking the time to write a review. We're so glad that you enjoyed your round at Victoria Hills Golf Club. Please visit us again soon!
Excellent place to place
Everything was great. It’s a course fill with everything challenging (water, sand , hills and thick rough!!
Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, u314160671427! We look forward to seeing you again soon at Victoria Hills Golf Club.
Improving
Greens and fairways were much improved since I last played here 4 weeks ago. Still some weeds and bad spots though. A couple bad tee boxes (#10!). A missed fairway or green is a likely lost ball as the rough is about a foot high. Great layout and otherwise fun course.
Hi, dscisciani. We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Victoria Hills Golf Club!

Course Conditions Were Qustionable
Greens were above average, but tee boxes were awful---no grass and what was there were lots of weeds. And it appeared no one is cutting off the fairways. The gorse in the rough reminded me of Scotland. I have not played there since April 5th, and I have NEVER seen the course in such disrepair.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us, blencke. We are going to pass on your feedback to the team. Thanks for visiting Victoria Hills Golf Club, and we hope to see you again in the future.
Greens in OK shape. Smart spots on the course I’ve been spotty. All in all with a little adjustment here you can play quite well there.
Hi, remi3059218. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Victoria Hills Golf Club.
Great lay out
Great lay out! Area between holes need attention ie, groundskeeping. Greens had been aerated recently and were still a little bumpy otherwise course was a great change from the flat courses around Florida.
Jury is still out
Play here probably 2 to 3 times a month, only option in DeLand. The greens were in much better shape. Tee boxes had a few: 1, 10 & 11 that were not in great shape (always bad from memory) but the others were good. Fairways were good. Rough was a mile high, first I have ever seen it that high. Practice putting green had a large dead spot. Hope they can fix the trouble spots and get the rough maintained. Price would be acceptable if those things were taken care of — DeBary G&C is the better option at the moment.

We would love to hear more about your positive experience on our course. Please contact us to share your favorite part of your experience and what we can do to earn that last star! Thanks for golfing at Victoria Hills Golf Club!
Honestly, the course needs a lot of work. Nowhere near the conditions it had a few years back. Greens were slow, patchy and not consistent, with many having crab grass growing.
Hello, 1984slucas. We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a review. We would love to know how we can earn those last two stars next time! Thanks for playing Victoria Hills Golf Club.

Beautiful Course
Victoria has been in beautiful condition. The fairways are well groomed the greens are in good condition.
The staff is the absolute best, they’re all very friendly and welcoming. If you want to golf a well laid out course you need to golf Victoria. Prices are so very reasonable. This our favorite local course to golf.
Hello, u000006355210. We appreciate the review. You rated us 3-stars which means there is room to improve on your recent experience at Victoria Hills Golf Club. Let us know, in the comments, how and where you would like to see changes from the course. Thanks for the feedback!
Needs Grooming
This is the first time I have ever played this course in such miserable condition. The golf course needs to be groomed from tee boxes, to fairways, to the grass around the greens. I don't know what is happening to Victoria Hills and the maintenance of this course but it can't afford to continue in this direction. What was once one of my favorite places to play is now bordering on being completely out of rotation. Please groom this golf course...

Thank you for visiting Victoria Hills Golf Club. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Working on it but a LONG way to go!
Obvious that there is NOWHERE near enough money being spent on maintenance. Working on it is all you’ll hear. Without getting into specifics cause it all needs help. There’s nothing good to report here. From tee to green it’s gotten away from them. Will take a few years and a ton of cash to get it back. It’s a shame. Ron Garl did a great job here. Years ago. It’s a great layout. Always has been, but not a playable layout anymore. Shame. Not sure how many times I can say that. But add this course to the list of has beens north of Orlando. Black Bear…getting better. Slowly. Red Tail….. long long way to go. Timaquan…….nowhere near what it used to be. And so on.
2-1/2 Stars is the best it’s going to be for the next 2-3 years. Shame!
Completely agree with you. However. part of the problem is that stupid decisions are being made by the GM, for instance the greens were punched 7 weeks ago, the wrong sand was used and not enough (GM decision) so now 7 weeks later the greens are still bad. They now need to be rolled, will the GM rent the Roller., doubt it. The second cut of rough is knee high. So sad!
Redtail and black bear are not in bad shape whatsoever. These are public courses that get a ton of play. I agree with Timacuan and Victoria Hills. Redtail and black bear are both in good shape…
