They do not disclose that the price at the gate is MUCH higher than the price it says online. The people were terrible to deal with. They let people start their cars throughout the movie so all you can smell is exhaust. Terrible experience, will not be coming back

Even if it takes a couple hours to get there, the Starlight drive-in is always worth the trek. Friendly service, delicious popcorn (with the best butter) and an awesome selection of both retro and recent movies. If you find yourself in the area, make sure you check it out!!

What a great night, it is a flashback to the 50's. Old school drive in. Snack stand/ concession stand prices are reasonable and offerings plentiful. We had people aged 4-76 in our group and all loved it. The viewing is good from all places in the drive in.

Never been to a drive in movie but didn't want to miss the opportunity. We are a family of 5 with 3 kids 16- 23 years. We had a hire car and couldn't work out how to keep the radio going with the engine off, so every 10 mins we had to open the door to get the radio going again! Plus we got steamed up as we couldn't start the engine to get the windows down or we would disturb everyone else, and when we opened the door each time the lights came on.... we should have taken blankets and pillows, had the back door open and practiced with the radio/lights/engine combination before we went!!!! However it was an experience and I would definitely recommend it if you get the chance.

Love Love Love the Starlite. Have been going here for years and again last Sunday night for the final showing of the season. Everything about the Starlite is reasonable and economical. Always two movies, $3.50 for a bag of popcorn and a massive screen. Feel sad thinking it's closed for the season...can't wait to go back .

So glad to see that there is still a drive in. Would prefer to go to a drive in than sit in a theatre. Brought back memories and was a perfect place to take my younger sister for her birthday.

My radio in my car stopped working. How do listen to the movie ? Is it only done through radio or can you rent a speaker or have it go through your I phone ? TIA

Pretty sure it has to be through a radio but you could bring a battery powered portable radio with you.

How early do you need to get there on a Saturday night in August to be sure to get in?
Written August 13, 2015
I like to get there by at least 6:30 to get a good spot. We bring the dog and wander around before the movie starts. Grab popcorn and enjoy the sunset!
