How AWESOME this little treat out in the middle of a field in the mountains definitly was. I had not been to a drive in in forever. They were showing Wonder Woman. Not such a great movie to me. I know a lot of people liked it. I'd have to say I was not impressed with it. The drive on the other hand I was very impressed with...The scenery at dusk was gorgeous. You are surrounded by mountains ALL around you..The bathroom is small one toilet. The snack bar was really cool. I'd definitely recommend that if you're up for the weekend in Cottonwood springs or Bueno Vista to check them out. Takes you back in time...

The setting is absolutely beautiful. The sound quality is great. They start letting people in at around 8:15pm, but the line forms around 7:45ish. The movie started around 9:00ish. We had a great time and would definitely return.

Perfect place to kick back, relax, and catch a film after a long day of playing in the mountains. It began snowing at our campsite on Cottonwood Pass so we came into town to get warm and happened to come across this place. You can't beat the views and the employees were the best. Highly recommend.

Oh my gosh. Can I tell you what it was like to be driving in the mountains to come across this? I knew there was still a few and these guys have upgraded to digital! How much fun to stroll down memory lane and go see a movie at the drive in! It is a true find and I'll go again the next time I'm out that direction. Beautiful backdrop too!!!!
