Great course in awesome condition for this time of year. They have done plenty of drainage in the past year and it has really paid off. A great challenge and really cheap to play. Best value for money golf on the Mornington Peninsula. Will definitely be back more than once this winter .

quite enjoyed the bush parkland layout that was in really good condition. has a few hills that aren’t to steep to walk which adds to the challenge for a course that provides good value for money for the mornington peninsula. fav holes 2, 4, 12, 14 & 18

Should have read some of the reviews on the course before heading out to take it on. A common comment about the course is it not one for anybody who’s fitness i not a strong part of their game. The day I played there was a temp of around 35 degrees, which definately added to my fatigue come the 18th hole.

The course itself was great, well grassed fairways and consistant paced greens made for excelent conditions to card a good score (not the result I got from my day out there unfortunately) but I will be back, this time with a couple of mates and a cart to enjoy the round with.

This course is in Beautiful condition at the moment. The fairways are in the best condition I have seen them and the greens are running true..hopefully they can get cut just a litle shorter to give them a bit more pace. It is a country track so under the trees there is not great lies but its all the more incentive to stay on the good stuff.
It can get a bit damp during the winter time but the club are working hard to rectify this problem with new drainage systems being installed over the next year or so.

The layout is very good. There is alot of variety on the holes and they take a lot of thought to set your self up for good second shots. It is very easy to hit a great score one week then the next week if a few of the hazards come into play youll be left scratching your head wondering how it happened!

In my opinion it is one of the best value clubs around especially on the Penninsula..It is a Friendly blue collar type club that isnt rediculously busy making for an enjoyable round anytime. And the No frills CLubhouse is great for a beer after your round.

It certainly isnt the masterpiece that some of the other Peninnsula courses are, but lay out and condition wise, it is miles better than alot of the other public courses in the area(Centenary Park, Mt Martha etc.)

PROS

• Great Condition
• Challenging layout
• Best Value

Cons

• Can get wet in Winter.
• Tough Lies when hit astray

Great public course, bit of a hike for me to get there but a mate lives down that way. Very hilly and challenging, greens in good nick as are fairways. The rough however has suffered in the droughts so preferred lies may be in order. Recommended!

This course does not handle the wet weather AT ALL. The first 6 holes were in poor condition especially the 6th which was a mud patch along the fairway at the 160 to 260m from the tee. The course improved after this but by that time our group had already decided this would not be a course we would book in the winter ever again.

You can see that this course would be fantastic during the summer when the couch is lush and the ground hard, in fact it would be a massive advantage to the big hitter. However I will not be hurrying back after my experience 5 days ago.

Cost of $32 on a Sunday is cheaper than other courses in the area, but I wouldn’t pay more than that.

You almost need to turn a blind eye as you drive up the driveway at devilbend to appreciate it. to put it simply-the clubhouse desperatly needs an upgrade. BUT in the past couple of years the course has improved dramatically.transformed for the goat track it used to be, The fairways are lush, greens roll true and you will be rewarded for good shots. in places the "rough" can really just be a dust-bowl and get a tad rocky but other than that no complaints.
the par 5 first is a somewhat easy opener but after the 3rd hole it turns to business with a wonderful long par 4 followed by an uphill par 5 with a tee shot across the lake. some par 4’s on the back nine can get repetitive but overall a great track and good value for money. and anyone looking at getting a membership there certainly gets there moneys worth. i think it is a mere 450$ for under 25’s!!!

Absolutely LOVE this course. Signed up as amember 4 days ago and have played everyday since. Great cheap deals and it cost me $150 to sign up(im 14) with everyday/all day access. Very easy to lose a ball if you dont hit straight though and it is very hilly and tiring course.

Played here recently, and was delighted to find a serious challenging course in good condition. Not much to say really, it was all good – green fairways, good greens, friendly people.

Others have commented on the clubhouse, and it is a bit faded, but it provides very reasonably priced meals.

One word of caution though – this course is not for the unfit. It is very hilly, and physically wiped me out. We had a couple of locals play through who were riding a cart, they reckoned its the only way to fly at Devilbend. At the time of writing, the club has some really great membership offers available.

PROS

• Good condition, challenging, a fair dinkum course.

Cons

• Not for the unfit.

This course feels like its in the middle of no where, and takes just as long to get there.

But its a good country course within the melbourne limits.

Some fantastic snadbelt like holes with great variation in elavation.

Fairways and greens were all in good condition ad so was the rough.

The course is long and takes it out of you, felt it in my calfs for the next two days.

Club house is a little old but beer was at a good price and the staff were all very friendly.

having not ventured to hills of Devilbend for near on 3 years i had heard on the grapevine that there had been substantial changes there. Both on and off the course. On arrival i found the entrance had been spruced up and the a modern and aswell as the well stocked Profesional shop. After paying the very reasonable fee i ventured down the first hole where i was pleasently surpried to see all the works of the previous years had flourished into beutiful Santa Anna couch. The greens well paced and smooth as any cpourse in the famed southern peninsula. At Half way we were greeeted with a warm smile and a hot pie and cold drinkwas my selection from the broad range of sandwiches and hot food in the Professinal shop. I found the back nine to be even better than the front( Mainly because there was less water to hit into). At the completion of the game I suprised to see the club house opoen and a new and inviting bistro menu had been introduced. I believe the changes and the hard work the committe and staff has paid off and Devilbend has become one of the best value for money course's in Victoria.

I recently ventured down to the Mornington Peninsula in search of a good game of golf and found myself and 2 of my golfing partners arriving at The Devilbend Golf Club which is only a km off the Moorooduc Highway. The superintendant should be given a huge slap on the back as the condition of this course is amazing. The greens are magnificent and the fairways are the equivelant to anything on the Peninsula and I'm including Moonah Links and The National (Where i was a former Member). I feel I shouldn't be writing this review as it may encourage a lot more people to play there and I'd like to keep it to myself but I feel this place needs to be discovered by other golfing purists like myself. While the clubhouse may not be the Taj Mahal you'll find the atmosphere warm and beer cold. I urge anyone who doesn't want to battle a thousand other Golfers on the Peninsula to Give Devilbend a try you won't be disappointed.

It would appear as though a lot of development work has been done here and it just needs another growing season or two to mature. When this happens it will be a very good course.

Certainly enjoyed the round, good layout and some real surprise greens that will really test the flat stick.

Again all it needs is a bit more time, if you can't wait until then it won't dissapoint.

Course suffered a little from recent rains but as it is sand based and hilly there was no surface water. Some interesting holes and reasonably long holes for medium/high handicappers. Was quick to play. Clubhouse is good value. don't know about the index though, easy 3 points on some holes and near impossible to score points on others. A few water hazards but shouldn't be in play for most reasonable standard golfers. Bunkers need a bit more sand (or at least they should be raked). 27.50 on a Sunday is a little steep but you can recoup that in the clubhouse which has teriffically priced snacks and beers.
