Buffalo Run Golf Course
Rating Snapshot
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.

A Course With Great Potential
I have been playing here regularly for the past two years. The greens are outstanding, the staff friendly and accommodating. The pace of play varies but is generally 4-4.5 hours.
I love the layout and think that it has enough variety to keep most golfers interested. They have been working to improve fairway drainage and irrigation over the past two years. This has led to some inconsistencies in the quality of the fairways. I believe that they will be complete this year and grass will be taking root in some of the patchy areas.
I am sure that the repairs are the reason for the low cost and fear there will be a cost increase in the future. As long as all of the repairs bring the fairways up to the consistency of the greens, I will still pay the price for this track.
Close to a staple
Once this course gets healthy, I hope they don’t change the price. Could be one of the best values out there once 1 and 2 are cleaned up.
Buffalo is getting better now for sure
If you are a Denver Golfer, you have been aware that they have had challenges with the course conditions and some holes shortened as they repair and improve things and that is good, they are fixing things. This was a post snowstorm reopen less expensive round and it was good fun, the course is great, some parts of the fairway still not good, the snowmelt REALLY made the greens good and the people that run this place plus the food option are very nice. Ready to start playing again and a good value up to about $50 right now.
Poor Pace and Condition
Unfortunately they seemed to have a bad season because the overall condition of Fairways was pretty bad. Greens were ok but not true. Surprised course was so rough but the layout is great and staff is friendly so maybe next year. Even though it was a Saturday the pace of play was horrible. 2hrs 45 mins for 9 holes.....So I left
Painfully slow round. Played front 9 in a little over 2 hours. Played 10 and 11 and left as it took close to an hour to play 2 holes
Would have been a 5+ hour round. Course was nice but needs a ranger who moves people along.
