About
Located in the Great Northern Catskills, Thunderhart Golf Course at Sunny Hill is settled within the Catskill basin. The course offers both scenic views and a challenging design. The front nine is a traditional layout with some holes that long hitters will enjoy. There are three that measure over 500 yards. On the slightly tougher, parkland-style back nine each hole was carefully carved from the mature forests that sprinkle the rolling hills. Eleven ponds come into play throughout and the bunkering is minimal, but memorable. Though there are only 15 of them, they are strategically placed to provide a challenging test. In addition to the golf course, there is also a large 250-yard driving range available. Thunderhart is part of Sunny Hill Resort, which offers another 18-hole championship golf course that has a more resort-style feel.

5th Fairway at Thunderhart Photo submitted by u988085167 on 11/26/2019
Very Nice Course
Front and back nines were different animals. Front nine moderate difficulty while the back nine was very challenging. Course was in good shape and views were breathtaking. Also a nice abundence of wildlife was all around us. Made for a very nice day.
couse is well maintained
The course was in great shape and here was a large crew working on it . The greens could have been faster but everything else was great
Fun, fun fun.
Course is very fair. Plenty of tree lined fairways, elevation changes and water comes into play throughout. The views of the Catskills are great too.
Greens are just healing from aeration. I've heard the course plays like concrete in the hotter/drier summer months.
The staff is as friendly as it gets. Same goes for the people I met playing there.
Unbeatable values are available through www.golfnow.com
Value is exceptional
Played Thunderhart in early spring which comes late here in the Catskills. The course was in good shape, the greens a little too slow due to maintainance.
The design is very nice, much uphill/downhill. Water comes into play several times. That's the most challenging part of Thunderhart, especially if you are not familiar with that course.
Staff is very friendly, the local players, too. Thunderhart is a good value, will definetly come back when it's warmer.
