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.

This was typical rough today. Photo submitted by Kofoed27 on 06/14/2021
Construction site.
This course has no trees and tons of tall grass. The rough was cut in what seemed like layers so your ball was deep in the whole time.
The course had no real character. You could tell they wanted it to pass a very nice course, however it was not.
You can only ride your cart on half the course which defeats the purpose.
If this course cost half the price it does to play it would definitely be worth it, but for $60 with a cart I would definitely avoid this place and do something in Denver. Every public course in Denver is more affordable and in much better shape.
Rey good course. Lots of fun.
Conditions were a tad dry but it is July in Colorado. The course layout is nice and they make good use of elevation and bunkers. A few of the greens are very challenging. Staff was super friendly and helpful, some of the nicest I’ve encountered on a course. Well done!
Nothing better than playing a course that has almost half the holes as no carts allowed. Would've been nice having the information before booking a tee time. And for the course being half cart path only the course was in horrible condition.
Always a fun time
This place is much better than the rating....not sure who those people were....its awesome...
Beautiful course, pace of play was a bit slow - 5 hour round and started at 9am finished just before 2pm on a Friday - didnt expect this for a Friday. Other than that it was awesome.
Great track- tricky greens
Great value and outstanding layout. Tricky greens. Will definitely be back.
Have played this course past 3 summers and have always been a fan. Always considered it a hidden gem. But this year the course is in REAL rough shape. Recommend playing elsewhere this summer.
Course conditions
For the money it was not worth it. For June, not very green and lots of bare spots. 4 holes roped off so your walking the entire hole. Almost faster to just walk and play. Played last year and was much better but now it was terrible!
Good tough test
2nd time I played BR this year. Conditions have improved, however, there still are areas under construction, including the driving range (mats only). Greens roll well. Rough is thick!!! I mean, they water their grass!!! Its at least a 1/2 stroke if you miss the fairway. Strike it well here to fully enjoy your round.
Good and fun course.
Fun course and good layout. Course conditions were pretty good except for about 4 holes. Would go back and recommend the course
Have fun looking for your ball
This course is narrow and the rough is very think. You can watch your tee shot land and drive up to the area and won’t be able to find your ball. Unless it’s in the fairway, good luck.
I’ve seen better. I’ve seen worse.
Over all it was a good experience. Greens were in excellent shape. 70% of holes are in excellent shape from start to finish. The remaining 30% need attention between tee and green. Very difficult course. First cut of rough is a nightmare to get out of. I lost two balls in the first cut that I expected to be in great shape. Finding fairways in general is very difficult here. Don’t stop watching a well hit tee shot - there’s no telling where it’s going to go once it lands. If you want a challenge and are okay with a few holes in rough shape - I’d recommend playing here. I’ll be going back for revenge.
Nice layout, look like some disease of grass
It is a challenging course with smooth greens. There was quite a bit of GUP. Always enjoy the layout. Nice clubhouse and staff.
Great course.
Great course, great conditions. Greens were great, rolled true, and had a lot of undulation. Beautiful views, and beautiful homes around the course
For $40, it’s a heck of a deal! I will be playing Buffalo Run more after my first round here.
Agree -- this place is a dog track. There are much better places to play in Aurora like Murphy Creek, Meadow Hills and Saddle Rock.
