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.

Local Gem!

This course is hands down the best muni I’ve ever played. Well kept, solid layout, pace of play was OK - took us just over 4:15 to finish a round. Range was odd mats only but that’s my only complaint. I’ll definitely be back.

Slow play - lack of player assistant enforcing times

I played with 5 year regulars, who said never played this slow. It happens. But was inexcusable was the fact we called the pro shop to let them know of slow play, they were slow to respond. So ended up only getting 22 holes of golf in during regular time. Frustrated with poor player assistant.

Walked

Great Course - No Cart Girl?

As far s course conditions, fantastic. The par three greens are full of ball marks - but that is the golfers not the course management. Water, length, and sand make this quite challending. I walked but would recommend walking with other walkers - it is a little long but has cut throughts for most holes.

I'll be back. Get the city card!
