The Aquila Golf Course facility offers two golf courses; one is a championship length course while the other is a par-3, nine-hole course. The championship course provides an excellent game of golf for an affordable price. There are scenic views of mountains and downtown Phoenix as well as a challenging layout featuring several water hazards and bunkers. Although the terrain is rather hilly, it is still relatively walkable. The course has an excellent range of holes that each have a unique character, the par 5's are especially notable. Native grasses and wildflowers are also present on Aquila's Championship course, further adding to its natural beauty.

Great conditions after overseed

The new grass has filled in nicely and the course looks and plays great. Not sure how long it has been since over-seed, but the greens were already rolling much smoother and quicker than other courses I played over the last 10 days. This really is the best City of Phx muni and, quite possibly, the best course at this price point in town.

Golf Now vs Paying @ Course

Golf now gave me a hot deal with no options to select walking or Jr’s playing. Get to course and rate was $13 cheaper per adult and $43 cheaper for each Jr.

Still on cartpath, but very nice shape.

Although still on cartpath and lots of back and forth walking, we enjoyed our day on the links. Course is in great shape after reseeding and we are looking forward to coming back. Even the sand traps were playable.

Bad Management

I had a afternoon tee time and I showed up earlier. The manager of the course intervened to tell me that I have to adhere to the tee time as if I had control over my starting time when there is a starter. I like to show up earlier to hit balls putt, etc. as there are facilities for that purpose. I got the distinct impression that because I made this reservation on golf now as opposed to having a city card that this fact precipitated his attitude.

Hidden Gem

I'm visiting from Toronto, Canada, was a bit skeptic about the rave reviews, but they are all TRUE!! One of the best courses I played (conditions and layout) in the PHX area. Pace of play was a bit slow for a Monday round (still 4.5 hrs). Did not see any Marshall, and only once for the beverage cart. If this were not muni course, price can easily be more than doubled! Paired with two local gentlemen (Jeff and Bob) made the round even more enjoyable!!

Tough when it’s cart path only

Great course but the greens are way too slow. You’ll get plenty of exercise walking up and down these hills.

Great course to play

First time playing this course. Got a god vibe from the start. The staff were friendly and helpful. The course was in beautiful condition even though it was cart path only. A little out of the way but nothing bad. I certainly will play here again.

Course is prepping for overseed so the greens were cut pretty short, otherwise the course is in good shape. Had some great fairway lies (of the few i hit) and the greens held well. We played in four hours, staff is awesome, great day

One of the best municipal course I’ve played

For a municipal operated course, this was a great course to play, especially given the price! We played during the low season so the course was in pretty good shape despite the high heat.

The course layout was pretty straight forward and fairly easy to play, a good course to get a warm up round in prior to hitting the more challenging tracks in Arizona.
