I'm so glad that we have [this] around here. Just wanted to say thanks so much!!!!!!!" 5 -- nicole clatterbuck "I discovered this place about 18 years ago. We try to come every year. It is wonderful. I tell my kids that they are very lucky that they can go to a drive-in, most people can't. They actually love it so much more than any other movie theater. It is a great value and a wonderful time with my family." 5 -- Virginia "I've been bringing my kids here since they were babies. They've literally grown up here! Summer wouldn't be the same without The Family Drive-In. It's a wonderful place to relax, socialize and enjoy some movies under the stars!" 5 -- Sophie "Great family drive-in. Wonderful play area for the kids." 5 -- Regina "I love going to the drive-in. I take my pick-up and chair and enjoy the night air. I am able to take my toy poodle 'Brandi' for companionship. I take her bed and bowl for water and we are off. Love it...." 5 -- Angie "I thought this was a great place and it made you feel like a kid again! We love it and we will be back." 5 -- Jill "I love the drive-in! We have made the BEST summer memories here. The people are friendly, it is inexpensive, the playground is great. WE LOVE THIS PLACE!" 5 -- Danielle Unger "First time for our boys at a drive-in and they loved it! Play area is a great idea for pre-movie time. We'll definitely be back! :)" 5 -- Robin "It is great to have the Family drive-in still around. There are a lot of memories there, my Dad took me there when I was just a young boy. I am 58 now. The atmosphere and friendly service hasn't changed a bit. A true treat for any family." 5 -- Gary Baker "We visited this theater for the first time over the 4th of July weekend 2009 and had a blast! We drove 75 miles from the Washingon, DC area and found a delightful, clean theater, with friendly family staff. We had such a good time watching Up under the stars that we came back at the end of July to do it again. "Highly recommend family friendly atmosphere." 5 -- David Woodhead "VERY NICE DRIVE-IN TO COME TO SEE MOVIES AT.:)" 5 -- Chas "Just like the good ol days....I love it !!!" 5 -- Sherry |
