Victoria Hills Golf Club
Victoria Hills Golf Club in DeLand, Florida, offers an exceptional golfing experience, blending challenging play with stunning natural landscapes. Designed by Ron Garl and opened in 2000, this 18-hole championship course is strategically located between Orlando and Daytona Beach. Covering more than 200 acres, it is renowned for its unique contours and elevation changes, setting it apart from the typical Florida golf course landscape.
The course stretches 7,149 yards from the championship tees and features a par of 72. It has been acclaimed as one of the top 10 "Best Courses You Can Play" in Florida by Golf magazine in 2008. The design includes vigorous bunkering, ranging from expansive to intricate, with a mix of pot and waste bunkers that integrate seamlessly into the native wetlands and natural settings. This diverse terrain, combined with water hazards and elevation changes, provides a formidable test for golfers.
The layout features a variety of challenging holes, including the long par-3 No. 3 requiring precise accuracy to reach a well-guarded green, and No. 5—the longest par-5 on the course—demanding three well-placed shots to navigate through strategic fairway bunkers. The eighth hole presents an uphill battle with a dogleg left, where a smart tee shot is crucial to avoid tricky cross bunkers near the green. No. 14 offers a stern test as the most difficult par-3, and No. 18 finishes strong as an uphill par-5 that plays longer than it appears, challenging golfers to manage several bunkers strategically placed throughout.
Off the course, Victoria Hills enhances the golfer's experience with its luxurious clubhouse and Sparrows Grille, which serves lunch and dinner, providing a perfect setting for relaxation and dining. The club also serves as a premier wedding and event venue, making it a full-service destination for both local and visiting golfers.
With its combination of exceptional golf, scenic beauty, and outstanding facilities, Victoria Hills Golf Club stands out as a top destination in Central Florida’s golf scene.
