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.

Aguila

Fantastic golf course and fantastic practice facility. Totally jealous of this Muni. Wish it were back home. Very nice to walk, also. However, it sucks to stand so much because the pace of play was horrific. That said, I’ll be back in the spring.

Excellent muni course with great amenities, great course design, neatly trimmed tee boxes, fairways and greens, well-paved cart-path, electric golf carts, and GPS. You can't go wrong.

My only complaint are the fairways. Low grass volume. I don't know if it's cut too short or need to apply more grass. The ball rested most of the time on ground. I liked hitting out of the rough better

Upgraded Elements but disappointing

They have new carts. Still no coolers on the carts, drink holders do not hold 30oz water bottles, VERY annoying GPS police built in .. have to back up on several occasions when not doing anything "illegal". NIce blue tooth speaker additions but no access codes provided. New displays show "minutes" behind pre-set 4-hour course. Ranger goes by this instead of who is ahead of you. Net-net, "modernisation" needs some work. Weds PM round and NO Cart lady to be seen. Restauant/bar closes before dark so no 19th hole hospitality. Disappointed in the City of Phoenix for these decisions.

The course is so nice but the pace of play was horrible. The foursome ahead of the twosome ahead of us were terribly slow and didn’t play ready golf! We were able to finish only 16 holes and we started at 1:36 so should have been able to finish!

Great shape. Great value.

One of Phoenix's best municipal course. Fairways are in great shape and the greens very receptive. A definite gem.
