Raffeen Creek Golf Club is a 9-hole course which enjoys a wonderful setting on the shores of Cork harbour with beautiful views of the harbour and surrounding area. The natural lake which is a feature of holes 8 and 9 is a very picturesque bird sanctuary. The Course was designed by the renowned Irish golf course architect Eddie Hackett and the members commenced play in March 1989. The Club was officially opened by the President of the Golfing Union of Ireland in June 1989 followed by an exhibition fourball featuring professionals Christy O’Connor Snr, Batt Murphy (Monkstown GC), and Irish International Amateurs Tom Cleary and Denis O’Sullivan. Following a review of the course in 1996 Eddie Hackett wrote in his report, “I love this Course, full of charm, every hole in a different direction and each with its own special challenge and unique features.” The course provides a stern and enjoyable test for golfers of all abilities in a very scenic setting
