Buffalo Run Golf Course

About Buffalo Run Golf Course

This Commerce City track sits in the shadow of Denver's industrial corridor, but don't let the surrounding oil refineries and power plants fool you – Buffalo Run delivers solid golf at a price that won't break the bank. The course takes advantage of Colorado's high plains terrain with elevation changes that give you some interesting lies and approach shots, while the front range views provide a scenic backdrop that helps you forget about the nearby smokestacks. The layout has a workmanlike quality that rewards course management over pure distance, with strategically placed hazards that punish sloppy play without being overly penal. What sets Buffalo Run apart is its commitment to maintaining playable conditions despite being a budget-friendly option – the greens typically roll true and the fairways are in respectable shape throughout the season. The walking policy is a nice touch in an era where too many courses mandate carts, and you'll appreciate the exercise given Colorado's thin air. With a solid 4-star rating from nearly 600 reviews, it's clearly found its niche as a reliable daily-fee option for Denver-area golfers who want decent golf without the premium pricing of the more famous Front Range courses.
