About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 71
Length 5608 yards
Slope 122
Rating 68.9

DeBell Golf Club in Burbank offers an 18-hole Regulation Course and a nine-hole disc golf course. The Regulation Course has a tight layout with narrow fairways and a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Accuracy is the key to doing well on this golf course but it's not overly punishing. Its risk-reward holes will appeal to low and high handicappers alike. The front nine is fairly challenging but the back nine is where the golf course gets tough. Although DeBell Golf Club is short, only 5,608 yards from the back tees, the blind shots and winding doglegs make it seem much longer than it is. There isn't any water on the golf course but you'll hardly miss its presence with all the other hazards that lurk throughout.

Excellent friendly staff!

The course requires the precise ball control that’s why it was fun to place although the course wasn’t for the distance play.

Unorganized starter

I made a tee time reservation at 8:30am. Unfortunately I hit traffic on the way there and showed up a little late at 8:21am. When I walked into the pro shop first they made me pay. Then they conveniently told me they already sent out a group that was late this morning in my spot. To remedy the situation they made me play with ANOTHER 4SOME. I have never played a round with 5 players. I understand I Was not 10 mins early but once I arrived they should of made the changes.

Don’t be fooled by how short this course is

This course was in great shape, greens were fast and true for the most part. The course is short by yardage but there are a TON of dog legs and obstacles to avoid. A good mixture of uphill and downhill holes (very hilly course in general). Great views of Burbank too. Lots of challenging lies if you miss the fairway. Challenging Par 5s. It’s all about course management and accurate tee shots here. Very easy to lose balls forever with wayward shots. Know your club yardages and bring a range finder. Very fun and challenging layout for all levels.

Only major downsides, the water fountains don’t work throughout the course and it was a hot day. Water not being offered through the course was a bummer. Also the ball cleaners were not refreshed with clean soapy water.

Overall, fun, challenging course with some great views. Accuracy and the ability to shape your shots is rewarded here.

Nice Hidden Gem

This course is well kept, fairly priced and just as good as some of the longer courses around the area. Lots or Dog Legs but stil able to open up on a few Holes.

Also much easier to find decent tee times.

Quick 9 before 9

I work in Burbank and start at 9am. I work exactly 5 minutes away from DeBell and I love that I can get a quick 9 in at 6:30am and be done by 8:30. Never busy in the morning. I normally just tee off on hole 10. Never behind any groups and can play at any pace. Love this course.
