DO NOT PLAY HERE. This is literally my first review of anything and I have to let others know. This is by far the worst golf course I have EVER played at. $45 to play here on a weekend and $37 to play during the week? I wouldn’t even consider playing here for $10. Tee boxes are iffy, greens are okay, but there is literally ZERO grass in any fairway 1-18. They need to shut this place down to renovate because I cannot see how anyone would want to return here after they play here. Just posting in hopes that someone might read this and that I might sway at least one person not to play here. AVOID THIS HORRIBLE EXCUSE OF A COURSE.

This is the worst course I’ve ever played hands down. They should be paying you to play here. Dirt and rock fairways, bird dens and gopher holes make up 99% of the course. In fact, the only grass is the actual green and maybe the surrounding 30ft. Oh, and if you’re counting on a cart girl for copious amounts of boos to help you forget where you’re playing they don’t exist. You couldn’t even pay a homeless person to sleep here with all the vermin holes and the current state of the course. Don’t waste your time or money!!!

Played 18 here over the weekend and was baffled that this place is even open. There is NO GRASS ??? Its like playing on Mars (without the gravity assist). Also zero singage on the holes and between, so if youve never been, plan on walking around a bit trying to find where the next hole is. There is no price worth ever returning here, unless they start PAYING people to come roll around in the scorched earth that they call a links course.

I played yesterday 18 holes after work Tuesday September 15th 2020 at 4pm with my friend Oscar. I usually play this course 3 times a year & it keeps getting worse by the year. The good was that we finished all 18 holes rushing to beat the night lol. Great Greens.. The bad were, but where do I start ? Lol : Very poorly maintained fairways, no 50 mark red stake, nor 100 mark white stake, or no 200 mark blue stake. They do have the steel plates markings on the grounds but hard to see, & you must drive or walk to the middle of the fairways to see them. Some fairways have golfers holes everywhere, It took me 15 minutes to dig out some of my Tee shots.Kind of pricey for the condition of this LA county golf course. Please add stakes to all par 4 & par 5 holes so we can see them easier bcz not everybody has enough money to buy those expensive Bushnell golf ball finders. I asked the guy at the register to give us senior discounts since we are over 57, but refused to give it to us.

Save your time and money and stay home. Worse golf course Ive played in 12 years. Horrible fairways with semi-dececent greens. I honestly dont know what happened to this place...it use to be decent. Hopefully something happens in the near future to turn the place around.

Used to be a great place to practice after work when they had you line up when the range was full. Now they just tell you to line up behind any golfer you think may finish sooner. Then when you are practicing people stand behind you waiting until you finish???? Welcome to the time before people stood in lines.

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.

They should have a disclaimer stating 70% of the course, is played in the dirt.This course used to be a nice course.What when wrong?

I am an average, avid golfer, 25 handicap. Here is my review (during the COVID-19 limited conditions):Affordable, not too crowded, well-maintained driving range. On the course, the tee boxes are acceptable, and the greens, which are rather large, are well-maintained and above average. Most fairways are 25% grass that you can comfortably hit off, while the rest is a combination of hard packed dirt, mud, weeds, and creeping clover. Trees are scrawny, but seldom serve as obstacles. We did not play the traps, which when in use, must be rather tough. This course does play like a links course in England, because the wind is an issue on almost every hole, and the course has a lot of natural floral (grasses and bushes) coverage on the sides of the fairways, which makes it difficult to find your ball on an errant shot. Take a look at a satellite image of the course before you go ,so you wont be shocked by the state its in. My understanding is that staff is working on improving the condition of the fairways.

First time playing the course today. The conditions were horrible. There is huge dried dirt patches everywhere and the grass is all dried up. Definitely not worth the 45 dollars they charge. The GM stated they werent investing money into the course due to upcoming improvements but would have been nice to know before we started or at least lower the price. The GM did take care of my group. But overall not worth it go somewhere else.

This place is pretty bad but I guess you get what you pay for. It was 35 dollars for 18 holes with a cart. The fairway was nothing but dirt, sand and weeds with gopher holes EVERYWHERE. There were no signs saying which way was the next hole. I had to drive around to figure out where I needed to go. I almost skipped 14 and 15 because I got tired of looking for where to go. The sand traps were not sand either. They seemed like compacted dirt that were almost as hard as concrete. I decided not to keep score this round because I kept moving my ball onto patches of weeds so I wouldnt mess up my clubs. Horrible place to play. Never going back and I DO NOT recommend.

Need to figure a different way to distribute the balls in proper driving range.

Yesterday my wife, son and myself played the Links at Victoria in Carson. It was the worst course weve ever seen. There were so many gopher holes it was like playing on Swiss cheese. Every hole had more dirt that grass. The dirt was so hard you couldnt even hit off of it. We will never play there again. Dont waist your money. Its sad that they charge that much for such a terrible course. We wouldnt even play there if it was free.

Worst golf course that I have even been to. The only thing that was green were the greens. The only green that was on the fairways were weeds. They need to close this place for at least a year to grow the grass back. Not only all dirt golfer holes everywhere. You need a 4 x 4 golf cart.

Terrible service, called the golf course and booked a tee time but when I showed up, they didnt have my tee time. After waiting an hour and getting on the course, all I saw were dry hard dirt patches where the fairway was supposed to be. It looked as though the course has not been watered in years. Tee boxes are very bad, the green is very slow and in bad condition. I will never be coming back to this golf course. I would not recommend this course to anyone looking for decent golf.

This is a fairly run down course and driving range, however you can get on the course (or range) pretty easily and, in my mind, there is value in a low-brow golf course.

Been to a lot of course, this is now my home course.Pro’s1. Driving range is excellent, most beautiful at sunset, and fun at night since they close at 9ish.2. Chipping area is one of my favorites around town.3. Putting area are always challenging and wide.4. The greens on this course are pretty, and difficult at times.5. Always fast not a lot of wait can get on the course no problem6. If you want to get better this is the courseCon’s1. Fairways are OK, I’ve seen worst. If you are a beginner you will hate it. But once you get to understand the course it becomes exciting.SummaryThe course is great. If you know what you’re doing and you not taking slobs shots you will like it. If you ball lands on the dirt find a grass patch and play it from there. Have fun and go golf! “ I’d rather go golfing “

The rain has rejuvenated the course and its in the best shape it has been in quite some time. Wide open for play and great staff.

Very helpful staff and huge place to hone your golf skills.

Warning! Do not play golf at this Links at Victoria! Hardly a links course. Its a dog run! What a joke of a course. Your playing on dirt! I mean straight up dirt! Par 5 hit it 280yds in the middle of the fairway and your ball is sitting on packed dirt. Talk about a tight lie! Its not golf, its a joke of a course. Practice facility was fine. Greens are well maintained. However, the greens do not match the carpet. Simply put, the fairways needed water and now its too late, its destroyed! Absolute worst of the worst! Ive never seen anything like it. I encourage you to visit and write a review yourself. Add to what I am writing my experience. Hopefully if things get bad enough. People wont come because right now. The ratings are a 4 stars! Lies fellow golfers, lies! I hope to read what others think about this place in the coming future. For now, here are a couple of pics for you all to zoom in for yourselves! Needless to say we left and played at another golf course. Dont waste your time and money. I hope this helps you fellow golfers to steer away from this horror of a course!

The greens could use some work (and water), but the course is close to home and usually has available tee times.

Lets take the good and the bad about this course.The goodThe people, workers crew and fellow golfers are friendly.The driving range has a program where you can get 3 large buckets a day for practice. You also get a free cart after 1 with the program.The chipping practice greens are in good shape.The putting greens are in good shape, better than most greens in the area.They have great PGA pros for lessons.The first tee program for kids to learn golf.Pace of play fastPractice rounds where you can hit and learn different shots. Can you hit a 5 iron off of hard pan?You score here you can score anywhere.The layout is awesome, you deal with wind in the afternoon on the back 9.The BADFairways are hard dirt and grassRange balls could be better as of late I have seen newer balls being being added.To sum it up if you need a practice track this is it. If your looking for a pristine course go elsewhere. All in all I have learned shots that I can take anywhere.

My son and I really like this course. Everyone is friendly. They have multiple putting areas and a lot of space on the drive range. The course is rarely crowded which allows you to play without feelings rushed.

Toxic landfill closed in the 50s. No regulation for dumping. Besides methane gas throughout the course. Lead and arsenic in soils. Maintenance is not allowed to dig in soil below 6 inches. A hazardous material team has to be contracted. Long term Irrigation employee died of cancer 42 years old . Hands severely infected from digging in soil. THATS WHY THERE IS NO GRASS IN THE FAIRWAYS. Latest aerial view of course. If you have someone you dont care for . Recomend this course. Look at other pictures posted. You would need to be desperate. To play this goat track. No a goat track is in better condition. Not the operators fault or employees. They are just trying to keep a job. To take care of their familys. But they should go somewhere else. Soil condition and health is public knowledge. Ask for a copy of soils and health risk . Reports .

I went to here for practice not for course. Driving range is excellent, both mat and grass are available, all lookalike new and maintained very well.

I don’t want to sound hyperbolic, but good lord this was hands down the worst course I have ever played in Southern California. Driving range looked to be in decent shape, but I went to play 18. This is not an exaggeration, there is more dirt on the fairways than grass, A LOT more dirt. You’d ping one right out to the center of the fairway, and you’re on a patch of dirt. I refused to ruin my clubs, so I’d pick my ball up, and have to search for one of the few patches of grass on the course, which is no way to play a round. Greens are probably a 5/10, but doesn’t make up for the fairways which are a -10/10. There doesn’t seem to be any movement to improve the course so just do yourself a favor and save your money or go strictly to practice. You’re better off driving a ways away to literally any other municipal course in so cal. The people in charge of this place should sell immediately to new owners, or they just need to shut the course down completely. Worst $50 I’ve ever spent.

This was the worst golf course Ive ever played on!

For $47 a round Id expect a lot more. The only spots that had decent grass were the tee box and greens. Outside that, the fairways are basically nothing but dirt. No joke, the entire course is probably 85% dirt. The sand traps are hard and have rocks in them. The entire grounds need serious work. Dead brush everywhere. One cigar smoking player could light the whole place up by accident. They need to shut down for a couple months and rebuild. Then it will be worth it. Ive played at courses way nicer for half the cost.

Itll do. Though the range balls are old and the fairways need work

At first I thought the range was weird but then I looked at the course and they match perfectly. At least they are consistent. There is a foodyear blimp next door though so theres that

Fairways had large paychs of dirt, but the greens were fine. For the money and location you cant beat it.

Shut this place down immediately! Its had several management companies to maintain the course and all has failed. This acreage would be nice for mixed use developments.

Worst place for a party EVER! No air conditioning in the party room.One working sink and soap dispenser in the bathroom, dirty vents and room. Went to a large party there and the experience was horrible because of the conditions present. Dont waste your money. Also a hot and dry place. Parking is slim and also crowded due to the golfers.

Clean, safe, socially distant activity.

Ive driven past many times its beautiful havent actually been

Today was especially quick due to not many people playing and due to the weather. Greens here are very good. But several bare spots in various fairways. But for the price it is a pretty decent course and some holes are challenging.

If you guys love beautiful views of nice gopher holes and dirt, this is the place to go. If youre looking to mess up your clubs, this is the place to go! If you just simply love rolling around in the mud and puddle splashing, youve gone to the right place, cause thats all there is here.

Range is good, but need some shade for summer days. The course is a link style and very fun to play; however, the fairway grass need a lot of work.

The driving range has decent golf balls and you have a choice of practicing on grass or mats. The course looks like a goats farm...

Theyve made a few improvements, a little walk to the driving range. Bring your own rubber tee because you may have read they dont provide them (people steal, not their fault). They will sell them to you at the pro shop if you forget. The course itself is not great, its right next to the freeway, and youll catch a whiff of the agricultural chemicals used nearby if the wind blows right. I prefer to use the range and practice areas and play elsewhere, but its not a bad course for the price and location. Dont forget to enjoy the park while there.

The greens are kept well but the fairways can use big improvements

Low quality course and also terrible sevices!

Well maintained.

A lot of rocks. Not really managed or maintained.

I’d give it 0.5 stars if I could ... there was less grass than dirt on the fairways

Played fast because no one wants to play in the dirt, green were ok tee boxes ok but the fairways very little green oh well, driving range looked good.

The course is 3 stars at best, but the grass range and practice chipping area is a 4 or 5.Greens are all nice.

Awesome view and great to be there with friends.

County course in not so good shape. I made my reservation on Thursday for Saturday morning. Got a early tee time. That tells you all you need to know about the course. Views of the Goodyear blimp on the back 9. Use your online discounts to get a better deal.

Such a bad customer service in pro shop to members !Michael Padilla was a very rude and had a bad attitude and made me so... upset.I forgot to bring the member card, they dont give out the range balls even they know I am member and they have member names listed in the register systems.A week before they make all the members wait for range balls to pickup balls. There was an hour delay.They increased member fees to $60 instead $50 with out any notice.Why is the member fee higher than others but a low quality of service ?I dont understand why they are so mean to customers.

Wow...they have let this place go.Its all hard dirt. Almost no grass.What a shame. The golf gods are shaking their heads.The worst course management of all la muni courses.

Good green s

Fairways are not in great shape, but fun course.

The staff are all very pleasant and friendly but the fairways are dirt.

I dont golf for full disclosure. However, I took my daughter and her friend here and was worried after reading the reviews. I found the course to actually be quite nice and not as much dirt as posted. Maybe it was because it had recently rained. Anyway, I thought it was very nice and would be happy to go again.

Amazing course

Had a great time but I misplaced my 5 iron somewhere on the fairway

Re-opened drive range looks good. But I think they cheat on the numbers of practice ball. I always purchase largest basket but numbers of golf balls are always different a lot. Be careful!

We had tons of rain but the fairways didnt get seeded ... the layout is fun, the greens are really good. But they cant grow grass in the fairways.

Its an L.A county owned golf course They have plenty of parking, driving range, putting green , golf charts .They have senior discounts, golf shop, public parking & restrooms ,coffee shop, but they have no change rooms.0

Visited the Victory Cafe, great service, prices and food.

Golf course is not very well maintained. Its a Los Angeles County facility so there hasnt been any updating/upgrading of entire facility in a very long time. Fairways are mostly dirt, not well manicured at all. Dont make the mistake of trusting the tee box yardage! The greens are OK. On the upside, the fairways are mostly wide open; good for beginners.

Its aways good to know you can be satisfied by letting off a days work at Victoria golf course. The range is wonderful and the play is okay when making rules according to the course, this place everyone on a even plane.

Nice place to play workers are very niceGood lunch good coffe...

En route 2 San Diego. Vwey brief as we drove by on the freeway. Looks like fun, hiwever, I think one might need 2. B. a member. Not sure. Check out their web site.

Decent course very friendly staff

Great course layout and challenge but they havent fixed the fairways yet. When they do, this will be a premier course. Their new driving range is now open with grass and mat stations. The greens are competition ready and rolling true and fast. The only knock on this course is its fairways. It has plenty of bite with plenty of environmental areas and it plays harder when the wind is up, especially the back nine.

Only what I expecte here is maintain the grasses. Other than that, love to play here more often.

The Greens are in great but. Fairways are shot Theyre more gopher holes then fairway greens

Nice people nice greens but bad fairways

Had a great time cant wait to go back

Great course to play at when they water the grass.

Great driving range, Allen was very helpful to my wife and I for our 1st time trying golf out.

Horrible

Huge practice facility, thats why visited...range balls were acceptable condition at best.

We have been traveling for 3 months and this is the worst course we have played. The Fairways are brown with large hard dirt patches throughout the course. The Sand Traps do not have any sand in them, they are also hard. The greens are the only good thing there and they are marginal. The pictures that they have posted on their website is not like the course. This is false advertising. We paid $40.00 per person. When we called for the tee time they did not share the condition of the course or that the greens had been sanded recently. This course is like playing in a cow pasture. It is a disgrace!!

Greens were ok. But Ive never played on such a crappy coarse. Fairways were like playing on old broccoli that should of been thrown away. It has potential to be good but on fortunately they spent all there money on carts and Mercedes Benz instead of fertilizers for the fairways. They should of bought off road vehicles for carts. 1st and last time playing there.

First time I went there was for a photography project. Very well taken care of. Lots of parking space.

Worst golf course, no grass, never visit again

Too bad maintenance!!!

Greens are in good shape. Fairways need some work. If you go off the fairways good luck finding your ball.

Been getting some good practice here. The driving range is open and looks fabulous.

Poor condition course. They are over charging for players club membership at $50. When every other courses are hanging $32.

Great course. Nothing fancy. Its a links course built on a landfill. $32 twilight price includes a cart.

Absolutely horrible! I wouldnt wish this on my worst golf enemy. They should pay people to endure 4 hours there

Great staff. But the course I should have brought my dirt bike instead of my golf clubs.and the $45.00 that i paid they should have paid me and gave all of my guys and myself a giant bag of grass seed to help them out. Because obviously nobody is using any.

Play golf every week, has a lot of dirt or mud when its watered. The best greens in county.

Greens were excellent, fairways need water, lots of water. Fun course.

Clean it up, makes the community looks bad

Its not that bad here...had fun today

The greens are in good shape, fairways so-so.

The green is in great condition, fairway is good and the pace is much faster than most of the course in Long Beach that I play at.

Probably the worst course Ive ever played on considering the price. Very poor condition, some of the greens are fine, others had score lines through them that hopefully at some point will disappear. Wont be back for sure. They really need to up their game on this one.

Enjoy my 18 holes

Large driving range.

Greens are nice but thats it should be called the dirt patches at Victoria

Still smells. A dirt track.But GREAT GREENS!!!

Small recreational room, needed dusting...large dead spiders in the corners.

Just dropped in for a bite to eat . Local course.

If you like hitting it off the dirt, even when your in the fairway, this is your place, worst up keep of any golf course in LA
