Rating 74.7

Buffalo Run Golf Course is a locally acclaimed 18-hole, municipal course in Commerce City. The links-style layout covers 7,411 yards from its longest tees with a par of 72. Designed by Keith Foster, there are challenging elements such as water hazards and bunkers that come into play on the course. The wind creates difficulty on this golf course. Buffalo Run Golf Course's front nine is less challenging than the back nine but it builds up good practice for the second half of the game. One hole to note is the demanding 13th hole. It is a par-3 that has a well-placed bunker near the green.

Overall very nice. Greens roll great. Pace was a little slow but it was a holiday so I guess that could have been why. I really liked the practice facilities...decent range although it was only mats on the day we played. Large putting green an seperate chipping green.

It’s a great course for the money

This is the second time I played this course. Some of the fairways had some rough spots and the green just got had sand put on the. The rough was green and thick. It help to have some targets poles put in to help direct some tee shots. The sand bunker were a bit hard. It a very good golf course for what you pay to play. I hope they stay true to the fees they charge, to many golf course charge a lot more. There are to many golf course charging a lot more money that don’t even come close to the great experience I had at buffalo run.

Used cart

rough is rough

Please get the rough mowers out to mow. The rough was way way to long. Three times my ball was 3 feet off the fairway but could not find it because rough was 4-5 inches long.

Mowing rough will speed up play and make it more enjoyable.

Other than cart path only, fairly nice. Fringe was very thick. Good pace of play despite walking across the fairway on most holes.

Course Looked Good Today

The rain helped, of course. Played early and no problem with pace of play. Some light overlay on a couple of fairways but they didn't distract nor affect our shots.

Great Course

The rough was...deep and rough, creating an extra layer of difficulty to a relatively straightforward course. My only complaint was not knowing that the driving range was closed for re-seeding and the only warm up choice was nets. Im the type of player that needs plenty of visual feedback before a round or it just goes sideways...which it certainly did. I'll definitely play here in the future once the range os open. Staff said early to mid May. Overall a great course with a beautiful clubhouse and a friendly staff

Back nine in much better condition than front nine. Grounds under repair everywhere, with large tarps covering fairways and approach areas.

Greens were in pretty good shape. The rest of course was not. Tarps are in every fairway, bunkers and like concrete. There are better options in same area for less money.

Golf round

Played here multiple times, staff always great. Course is getting better as far as condition, hopefully the mats are gone soon and the range opens up. Good experience per usual though.
