By the 1970’s, this drive-in was showing adult movies, while the Jaxon and Jaxon South drive-ins were showing more mainstream movies. It was located in what was pretty much a rural area, and the screen faced away from the highway, which I guess made it ideal for adult movies. It was open at least through the late 70’s or early 80’s.
