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.

Short tricky course

Shorter course but tricky to get around need a lot of good iron shots especially on the first 4 hols.

Greens are in good condition and fairly fast with a lot of small brakes not too many strait putts.

Lots of fun!

Up in the hills overlooking Burbank.

Always challenging. Bring lots of ammo.

Very diverse with great views.

Chances are you will run into a group of deer at some point.

Don't leave their Hilltop Cafe without some of the famous Garlic Bread!!

Not Easy, unless your ball has a fairway magnet!

I love this course, very beautiful, but very tough. Even if you play fairways and greens, the putting is very tough, anything over 20 feet and you could 4 putt. 2 putting is not easy at all. If you leave the fairway Good luck trying to par any of the holes. #10 looks so easy, but wow, par will feel like a birdie. Bring extra balls, especially the ones you don’t mind losing.

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.

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.
