The Loon Lake Drive-In was opened by 1952. It had space for twenty cars when it opened, making it one of the world’s smallest if not the smallest drive-in. By the 1960s the capacity had expanded to 125 cars and there were 200-seats for walk-in patrons.

George Larson was the owner in 1958. It had already expanded to 125 cars by that date.
My 1956 Almanac has the same owner as KenMc wrote. On capacity it has in the book and you can figure it out “20&200"must have been an interesting movie theatre.
George Larson appears to have obtained ownership in 1953, the January 24, 1953 issue of Box Office reported this and also mentioned it had 200 seats for walk-ins. So this place actually had more indoor seats than car space.
