Victor (also known as Desert Lake)[1] is a ghost town in Castle Valley in northern Emery County, Utah, United States.

[3] Victor was established in 1910, when a burst dam treated the soil near Desert Lake with alkaline water, preventing farming.

Farming was more difficult at Victor, because the area was much drier than Desert Lake.

[2] Sand dunes located near the town were often blown by wind onto farmland and the surrounding buildings.

[5] In 1920, the continuous lack of rain caused the residents of Victor to leave.
