Jason's Deli

County Line Rd
Denver, CO 80238

Buffalo Run Golf Course

15700 E 112th Avenue
Commerce City, CO 80022

Tim K. writes: Another nice, playable and enjoyable Colorado golf course. Not real long from the "almost" back tees (7040 yds) and plays a bit shorter. Most holes are straight away with few dog-legs. Couple of long par 3's, one is over 230 yds. but a bit downhill.…
