Buffalo Run Golf Course
About
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.

Poor Management of Bookings & Mediocre Cours Conditions
Dirt fairways, overgrown second cut and 20-25 minute pace of play per hole. Has potential but stacking foursomes for the entire day makes me thinks that the club cares more about revenue rather than customer experience and quality of the course. 20 miles out of town to sit hole after hole watching people get drunk and search for their ball for 10 minutes, no thanks. Course rangers nowhere to be found. Left after 13/18 holes due to the back up. Ten minutes between being able to hit again? Not this guy. Handicap pairings suggested.
Don’t bother
Unless walking don’t bother. They don’t have enough carts and even admit the ones they have are on their last leg. Staff is super unhelpful. I had to get a refund after driving to the course. Plenty of courses around that are better.
Very poor condition
I play most of the public Denver area courses, and this was my 1st Buffalo Run experience. This course is BY FAR in the worst condition. The fairways, greens and tee boxes were awful. It appears to me that the maintenance crew all must have quit.
All other city courses are pretty well maintained. Not Buffalo Run. Even Kennedy is in better shape, and that says a lot..
This is a course to be avoided. Embarassing!
Good course wold play again
Good course wold play again , price of range ball not great
Design
Extended length rough of 80 to 100 yards where fairway should be on par 5’s is just plain poor design. Laying up off a par 5 tee because of rough is never done unless warranted by water hazards or such. To just randomly have long extended rough and one par 5 had 2 separate areas is really poor design. Get rid of those areas so good players can lay up and spin the ball from a fairway.
Greens rolled very well. Some areas on greens were patchy but not yet overwhelming. Hopefully your greenskeeper will address those areas before they spread to more than 5% of greens
Booked 18-But staff getting home is more important…
2 golfers, 5:20 Tee Time. With the sun staying up later we no doubt could play 18. Staff right off the bat was trying to say how it was slow and backed up, but that wasn’t the case. We wouldn’t have driven 50 minutes just for 9 holes. When you book 18 holes you should at least be given the chance to at until dark and we were forced off 2 hours before visibility was even questionable. Zero respect for the evening golfers time/money. Course was nice w/ a cool layout though I will say that. Clubhouse was locked so so could t argue for a rain check. But this review will have to do.
Difficult Course - course could use work
Difficult course, super fun layout. Lots of dead spots throughout the course and on a lot of the greens. HUGE amounts of air traffic overhead. Denver intl. airport probably launches a plane a minute if not more. Noisy on the back 9 with constant construction of new houses.
Rough review
The rough was too deep to even find a ball. If you did you still couldn’t get a club on the ball. The greens are also in not great shape with some bald spots.
The green were slow, but consistent. The weed/rough is miserable. There are 3 or 4 holes that there are no fairways.
There was cold water on all hole whish was welcomed on a hot day
A pleasant time
I got behind a couple of walkers on the front nine, but had the course to myself on the back nine. There were very few golfers at the time I played (1:50 tee).
Greens were in rough shape and had a lot of burnt grass. The course as a whole didn’t look like it has been maintained in a few days. Got stuck playing behind a group of 5 playing from the tips who insisted they wait until the group ahead of them finished every hole before they teed off only to see them hit the ball 30 yards. When we brought it to the marshal’s attention they said they would keep an eye on it and then never saw them again. I usually enjoy playing this course but this was a forgettable experience.
Buffalo run
Friendly staff in both the clubhouse and restaurant. Golf a little slow, some of the greens and fairways are dirt.
