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.

Driving range

Compared to the course itself, the driving range leaves loads to be desired. The price for a large bucket is excellent but the balls themselves are atrocious!! (I've seen younger balls at a senior center!!)

The mats are acceptable but could use an upgrade.

Now last, and definitely least, is the range itself. Aesthetically unpleasing. Hurts my eyes. DeBell really needs to cover up all that dirt. I'll be content with faux carpet.

Love this course in the beautiful Burbank hills. The course is challenging and in great shape. Playing alongside the local deer is an added bonus!

Good value

I’ve always liked this course. Many people hate it and I’m not sure why. Makes you think off the tee and the greens are quite challenging. (Tip: with the exception of maybe a couple greens, stay BELOW the hole if you can). We finished in just over four hours with two riding and two of us walking. Conditions of the tee boxes and some fairways were fair. Some burnt spots on many fairways but nothing terrible. Can’t comment on the sand in bunkers. Greens rolled fast and true with minimal ball marks which is always nice to see. Pro shop guys were cool. Check in was fast and easy. 1240 time and it was 18 bucks to walk and 25 to ride. I call it good.

Terrible

Terrible in every way. They just squeezed a golf course somewhere it doesn’t belong. Horrible grass , tee boxes torn up and not maintained at all. Greens are just ok , still poorly kept. No distance stakes or anything . Just overall bad
