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.

Dry

Fairway was rough and dry. Front 9 was not as nice as the back 9. I am sure during the winter this place is much nicer. Right now the hot temperatures are eating this place alive.

Greens were not horrible, fast but again some greens were really rough and beat up from the heat.

May come out again in the winter.

Ehhhhhhhh

Our Tee time was at 11:40 am. Didn't get out till around 12:30pm due to there being no carts. Pace was slow. No one out there to regulate it. Course is tough. Extremely narrow. Sand bunkers are dirt. Wont bw coming back.

A great way to spend your morning

Very well maintained course with lots of elevation changes. Beautiful scenery and views at nearly every hole. A lot of tree coverage for shade, makes some of the fairways challenging but very enjoyable. Will play here again.

Short, but narrow and challenging

Some of the shortest Par 4s you'll ever play, but this course really gets you with narrow doglegs that are pretty unforgiving if you can't keep it straight. Greens are full of slopes and interesting reads, but slow enough to enjoy.

DeBell, my new home course.

I will claim DeBell as my home course. I’ve played here several times this year. It is a well cared for course. Quiet and serene with no waiting at the tee boxes. I like this course.

Great greens

The course is always a fun test. You do get to use every club in the bag! Thanks for providing a nice day back out golfing. One small issue- the group behind us kept creeping up on us. They didn't wait 10 minutes to tee off. Patience is the best part of responsibility in these trying times. Thank you.

Ring Da Bell

Great day all the way around. Greens in good shape, tee boxes not. Play smart golf and you can score well. Today instead if taking driver off the tee, I made the decision to only hit driver if hole was 400 yards or better. It paid off, shot 77! Ya gotta play here its fun!
