About

Holes 18
Type Public/Municipal
Style Links
Par 72
Length 7411 yards
Slope 130
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.

Up and down

Some holes in good condition others unplayable. Apparently they updated the irrigation system last year and let conditions degrade sharply. Got a discounted rate as one hole was closed another hole was being reseeded.The first cut was very thick and hard to play. Not going back this year.

Nice 98 degree day

It was a very nice day for golf. Holes 11, 14, and 15 are still not in good shape. Hopefully they will get these holes back in playable condition soon. The rest of the course was in good shape.

Cart sharing...

Otherwise, awesome round but let's talk about cart sharing with some people you get assigned with... !?!?!!

Having to share a cart with a stranger... no big deal...

Having to share a cart with a stranger and bad golfer... no big deal...

Having to share a cart with a stranger, bad golfer, and who is drunk early in the round and thinks the cart is his so I can't drive it... BIG PROBLEM...!!!

A couple tense moments but luckily, his belligerent golf game made it easier for him to calm down because he spent the day hunting and searching for his ball while I played my game and scrambled to shoot a respectable (78).

Ground under repair

Overall the course was great. They are doing construction on hole and I wish they better specified ground under repair areas and specific areas that you can hit if you went into the ground under repair. Specially the 11th hole that is a very long par 5

Par 4 paradise...

The collection of par four holes on this course (from the Gold/Black tee boxes) are as good as any on any golf course in Colorado. Solid tests for all golfers and opens up several great playing options as well.

Nice twilight course

The weather was good, the people were so friendly. The course is a bit beat up (back 9), but scenery is awesome.

Enjoyable day

Got paired with a super nice couple. Enjoyable round even though there still is a couple holes needing a lot of work and one hole completely closed.

76 degrees & windy... perfect!

All holes are open! Hole#11 is still a little rough due to new irrigation lines cut down the fairway but it'll cure fine later in the season.

Love this little piece of Scotland in northeast Denver metro area (Henderson). Highlands-type grasses/native grasslands, well placed bunkers including some fairway bunkers, rolling hills of course so practice up on your shot game shots, especially classic bump & run shots.

Awesome!

Be prepared to hunt balls

Greens are in kind of rough shape, a lot of patched turf, 11 is closed for an irrigation project and be ready to hunt for anything that doesn’t land in the fairway. Heck, be ready to hunt for anything that rolls off the fairway, our group piped multiple drives that landed dead center and we couldn’t find them.

Get what you pay for

This course is under extreme repair. Many of the greens are patchy and patched with sod. Some holes are completely ruined and on the repair. Give this course a couple years and it should be great.
