Originally operated by the Butterfield circuit, the Denniston was later run by Deniston Theatre Company. The Denniston Drive-In is now located behind the Denniston 1&2 Cinemas and is so overgrown that hiking boots and denim pants are required to make the trip to the concession stand, which you can't see until you get there.

After visiting this theater, I had a strange experience of deja vu at the Vista Drive-In Theatre in Walker, Michigan. Strange that two drive-ins on opposite ends of the state would have exactly the same layout. I'll have to look into this one further.
