As someone who showed up at 8:00pm for an 8:30 showing that didn’t start until 9:00pm because they wanted to wait for people showing up late to park/get food, I was not impressed. People showed as soon as the gates opened at 7pm for the movie, I don’t believe it’s fair to have them wait longer because other people have time management skills. This was a cute date for me and my boyfriend, but between no one reinforcing the lights people had on in their cars and that we didn’t see the ending credits of the new deadpool movie because they started late and we needed to leave before midnight. I’m pissed. I wasn’t expecting the movie to start that late after call time, it’s a 2+ hour movie showing at 8:30pm, you would think they’d start on time. Prepare to stay later than you planned, they don’t respect peoples time nor money.

Went to the Drive-in Friday night and watched a double feature. We did not visit the Motel. The food was good. We brought a work-site radio and it sounded great tuned to the FM station that they use. It was a bit annoying that there were some vehicles that's lights came on and were on for a bit, off, back on... Just a bit annoying. We were able to sit in our chairs beside our truck. The spaces are good size.

Like going back in time. Unfortunately people can't respect or are incapable of using manners and common sense they run their engines, turn lights on and basically have no regard for others. It's a shame and always pickups just ban pickups.
