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
Low Cost - Low Quality
Let's start with the good points. The staff was very friendly and helpful in every area. The price was very good for a round with a cart. And the course layout is nice for a public course.
The 16th hole was not available as they were doing irrigation work. If this was mentione prior to signing up for the round, I did not see it. I felt like the course was not in good shape from tee to green. The greens were pretty good, but the fairways and rough needed water and grooming.
Once great course becoming run down
The course is certainly aware of issues and hopefully will be better next year. They are currently putting in a new irrigation on each hole. Thus, we played only 17 holes, they did give us a discount. What I was most concerned about the condition of the greens. Many if not most of the greens had very large dead spots. The gentleman we played with many of them are years old.
The course has always been known for its tough roughs, but I found them even tougher than I remember. We had a real tough time finding balls, we had to be right on top of them to find them. Then good luck hitting out of the rough. I wonder if this has something to do with the irrigation issues. If they can cut the roughs a bit lower, it will speed up pace of play and make the game a bit more enjoyable.
Rough Shape
I live in this community, and lately we have actively sought out other courses to play instead of Buffalo Run. Course was in pretty good condition when I moved to the area 4 years ago and has gradually gotten worse over time. A ton of ground under repair, the traps are washed out, fairways and greens in pour condition, etc. Hopefully the new irrigation project is a step in the right direction to revitalize the course.
Yes
The course is fine, tight off the tees. Difficult ruff. The staff is amazing, very friendly and accommodating. Overall a great experience.
Nice course, fun layout
Obviously the course is redoing the irrigation, but it plays good and is a fun course. Id recommend to play because next tear i can see this course charging double
Buffalo Run or Buffalo Wind?
Every time I've played this course it's been windy. The grassy is patchy, weedy, bare dirt, and think rough where it's grown in. It's problaby my least favorite cause I've ever played
Very Poor Conditions
Nice layout, extremely nice, friendly and professional staff. The conditions were terrible. I've played the course many times before, maybe 3 years ago and earlier. I was shocked at how drastically the conditions have declined. The tee boxes are poorly maintained, the fariways are full of poorly grown in areas and dirt patches, the rough is similar to the fairways and the transition areas green to tee are horrible. This was a course I would have highly recommended...not any more. I understand there is irrigation construction in process, but I don't understand how the conditions have declined so drastically.
Rude marshals under construction
The marshal kept digging us even though the group ahead made us wait on every hole, he even acknowledged we couldn’t go faster but kept lurking, very rude
Bit of a mess
A golf course carved out of a construction site. In addition to the fact the course was just in really bad shape with what seems like divots and burnt grass everywhere, there is construction going on and equipment all over the place. The par 5’s you basically need a guide to tell you what to do bc there are so many unintentional risk areas. Weather has not been great to this course, but get ready for a bit of a zoo. Amenities and staff are awesome though.
Great course. Slow play.
Love playing this course. Booked an 8 am tee time in hopes of playing a decent paced round. Waited on almost every shot, sometimes 15 minutes. Not sure why slow golfers book early tee times.
Disappointed
The staff was very friendly but the condition of the course was bad. The person we played with had their golf cart quit in the middle of the game, which also happened to the players in front of us. We’ve played this course several times and enjoyed it so it was very disappointing.
Great course
This is a wonderful course with lots to offer to all golfers. This is also a course that once a year does a Hero week which is actually 6 weeks long, once every Thursday from 6pm-8pm where you are with a golf pro working on your game.
This is free for all Veteran's, I as a vet value this greatly and because of this course and their support to vets I will hands down rather pay to play at this course then any other.
Fun challenging course
If you like a links type of course you will love Buffalo Run. Very beautiful and well maintained. The staff was great all the way to the cart girl.
