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.

Favorite City Course

I enjoy playing Aguila every time I go there. The layout is great with a good mixture of holes. Course conditions were very good. Greens had just been topdressed so they were a little sandy but were putting just fine. Pace of play was little slow for my liking. Definitely my favorite City of Phoenix municipal golf course.

City of Phoenix does an amazing job!

What a great gem! This golf course is very hard to get a tee time for a reason. Immaculate conditions, same or better as private clubs this time of year. Cannot recommend enough!

What a Gem

First time playing this mini out in Laveen. Can’t believe I haven’t been out here before. Nice track with some risk reward holes. Greens are hard to read and a little slow, but do roll true. Will be back again for sure.

Poor cart person service and ripped off!

Wanted 2 drinks and cart person suggested buy 4 drink special. I said I was ok, but cart person insisted and said they'd bring 3rd & 4th drink around next round so they wouldn't get hot. Cart never came around and bar was closed when I finished playing my round. I even tipped and never received my 3rd and 4th drinks!

Good condition, slow play

Waited at least 10 minutes on every hole. Hate they mix walkers and riders. Course was in decent shape. On course cart service was limited and slow.

Great find

This muni course is a little gem. I was pleasantly surprised and pleased .
I didn't expect to find it in such good condition. It was challenging but not over the top for an intermediate player. 12 to 15 handicap.
I highly recommend this place for its value and condition.

Always a good time

Had a great day playing Aguila. Used their driving and chipping area to warm up. Course was in good shape had a very nice round. Finished with a great Arizona sunset even if our 3:00 tee time didn’t allow us to finish 18
