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 Golf Course

You will not find a better golf course in the Phoenix area for the price of Aguila. The golf shop staff are awesome. The starters are great. The course conditions are 2nd to none! You can easily pay 3-4 times more for golf courses that are no better than Aguila. Only complaint with Aguila is as a card holder you get 9 day booking which starts at 12 am, midnight! If you are not on right at 12 am good luck with a morning tee time. All gone by 12:02! Other than that this is an exceptional golf course

Best muni in Phx

Course was nice and green after over seed. They were already allowing carts off the paths. The greens were already rolling nicely, not completely recovered, it seemed, but very close. All in all, this is one of the best, if not the best, value priced golf courses you will find in or around Phoenix, IMO. Nice scenery, fun, fair and interesting layout and conditions that always compare very favorably to similarly priced courses.

Better pace of play

The course was starting the overseeding process but greens were good and overall the course firm and fast. I was pleased to get done in 4 hours but we were waved on by the group in front of us when one of their players became ill. Quickly our foursome caught the next group who had been slowing everyone down. I guess people think that Aguila being a municipal course is a pushover but please play from the correct tees, it’s harder than you think.

Pick the correct tee box and suck faster

Aguila was in great shape yesterday. They had an NCAA event going so it was as good as it gets in Arizona in early September. Greens held and were medium fast. The only thing that ruined the day was the group in front of us. 2/4 players were novices and should either have not been on the course or played from forward tees. They parked on top of green banks and right in front of greens and in other cart restricted zones. They never played behind anyone all day, only in front of our 3 some in 4:45 minutes at 9:36 on a Wednesday morning! I realize that with the event going on staff was busy and while that is true the paying public should expect at least one visit by a ranger over 4 hours.
