The Ranch Drive-In opened its gates on June 2, 1956 with Ray Milland in “Man Alone” and Edmund O'Brien in “Shield For Murder” along with a few unnamed shorts. Teicher Theatres was its last operator, and closed on September 20, 1987 with three unrated drive-in adult fare movies all-in-one as a tribute to all the American drive-ins, but its last normal first-run movies were screened the previous week on September 13, 1987 with “Dragnet” and “Spaceballs”.
A slightly closer address is 12640 Centerfield Rd, Greenfield, OH.
Google Maps has updated their addresses and this puts it right on the property.
Today, the property is home to a community building. The original entrance/exist roads still exist along with the outline and hints of ramps.
