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.

Haven’t responded for a refund request
Irrigation project affected conditions
This is a good course when the conditions are good. They are doing a 1st irrigation project since it opened. Thus, 2 holes were not available for play, bummer - holes #10 & 5. This makes for a bit of extra challenge for walkers. The layout always makes the course a challenge, but there are some spots in the grass and fairways...and even on some of the greens that are suboptimal, to be honest. Delicate shots near the greens are a bit extra challenging. One golfer in the group thought the bunkers had construction dirt, but it still felt like sand to me. Still, a nice day with pleasant company can make it worth it. You just can't be in the 18 holes or nothing mindset.
Super slow
Probably the slowest round I’ve ever played. No marshals on the course to keep up the pace of play. Hole 11 was none playable so you would think it wouldn’t be that bad… we were all wrong! Out of all the city courses I played on the weekend this season this one was by far the slowest. If there were rangers/marshals on the course this could have been avoided. Took us about 5hours and 20min to get through the round. With having to wait after each shot made it hard to find a grove and play well.. I probably won’t be playing this course again anytime soon.
Links Course in the Wind
This is a good course that is thoughtfully laid out. It has a links style that plays into the the surroundings and takes advantage of the wind in the area. Several of the holes would change dramatically based on wind direction. The greens were good but not overly fast. I enjoyed the course and the facilities. I will play it again.
Classic Fall golf in Colorado!
This SCOTLAND-like piece of land is fun to play and worth the rate. Regular rates are higher than the $45 I paid but that was due to some new irrigation work they are completing and appropriately, they dropped their rate down since we couldn't play #12. At full price, this course is well worth the drive to Henderson/Commerce City in the Reunion neighborhood. Talk about expansion, Reunion is massive and they will continue building this area out until 2025 at least. In the summer, this course plays longer and tough. In the Fall, you get to enjoy the layout, some Fall bounces and rolls and of course, the changing colors! Cheers!
Generally poor conditions
I played about 3 years prior. The course conditions were fair then and worse now. In fairness, the greens were smooth and quick with minimal bad spots. A staff member advised that the county has allocated funds to hopefully improve a course that could be a gem. But it’s far from that now. I’ll try again in a year or two. Although $40 sounds reasonable, better to spend another $20 or more for better course conditions.
They're Trying
Buffalo Run is a nicely-designed course with challenging bunkers, targeted fairways, and sloping greens. It's a fun place to play and recommended!
They've always struggled with maintenance issues though. There are lots of bare areas and the grass is lumpy. Hopefully, the new irrigation (currently being installed) and construction rollers will help.
Slow!
Tee sheet was half full and still took 4:45 to play. Not the first time. Manage the pace of play on your course better. We had 3 groups stacked on a box at one point. Course is in rough shape too. I live on the course and will go out of my way to play something other than Buffalo Run. Last minute rounds is it's only purpose for me now.
Great course great price great experience!
This course is challenging for someone new to golf like myself! I love this course! Staff always friendly! Great practice area! There was no cart girl but it’s expected during slower months! Will always come back here to play
Fallen off
Used to be a great course. Everything has fallen off. Range, carts, course all in poor shape.
