The Par-3 Course at Aquila is a perfect complement to the original championship course at the facility. Although the nine-hole course is easier, it still has a unique and challenging design. Conveniently located just outside of downtown Phoenix, the golf course offers an affordable option for golfers to work on their short game. Numerous bunkers and native grass roughs add some interesting elements to the game. The serene desert landscape also provides majestic views of the Estrella Mountains and the downtown Phoenix skyline. The course has two teeing areas per hole as well as driving ranges and practice greens.

Nice little 9

Nice 9, however, for older seniors, it is a tough course to walk. I am in good shape and had no problem

Busy Day

First time player

The first come first serve no starter threw me off at first however for the golden price and pace of play it was worth it. Greens were fast and we just kind of paired up with a single the course had a nice degree of challenge for me, will play here again.

Great course for beginners!

I have played a total of 5 or 6 rounds ever ! I have to say this course is gorgeous, well kept and an excellent value. I liked the course layout and challenging enough but not too much for me/ a novice. Biggest club I used was a 6 iron . Used my 8, pw and 52 and of course a putter. I like my evens. I got 41 on a par 27..I am a terrible putter. Highly recommend!
