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 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!

Course was in great shape, greens were fantastic and fairways were nice. Only downside is if you are a single player they will make share a cart with someone instead of you taking out your own cart. Pretty ridiculous that they don’t tell you when you are in the pro shop and then the starter tells you you have merge with a random.

Great Muni Course

Love playing here. Course seemed a little dry for all the rain we have had, but still in very good condition. Practice facilities for putting, chipping and driving range are great. Always willing to go back and play. Great price for golf in Arizona

A Public Course kept in Excellent Shape

I was pleasant surprised to find Aguila in the best shape I’ve ever played it. Greens were clean and well maintained and the fairways were beautiful- perfect grass length on and off the fairway. Watch out for the stands of thorn bushes to the side- they make errant ball retrieval almost impossible.
