the Inn was caught in the real estate and savings and loan crisis that touched most of the West. In addition, adevastating fire in 1987 severely damaged the main building – Megargee's old home.The Restoration (1992 – 1994)Intrigued by the property’s colorful past and its potential as a desert hideaway,Paradise Valley residents Fred and Jennifer Unger and Art Cunningham ofHermosa Legacy Partners purchased the hotel in 1992 and spearheaded arestoration project designed to reclaim the original charm, timeless quality andlong-standing tradition of the historic structure.Working with builder and designer, Dan MacBeth, also a Paradise Valleyresident, a top priority of theirs was to save the adobe walls of the fire-damaged main building, restore thecharred old beams, and clean up the original ironwork that graces the building inside and out.The interior of the building, which now houses LON's at The Hermosa, Last DropBar and the Inn's reception area, was furnished to reflect a 1930's Southwesternambiance, much like it was during Megargee's days. Prints and originals ofMegargee's artwork line the walls, including one of his most famous paintings“Last Drop From His Stetson,” which was commissioned by the Stetson HatCompany and, to this day, appears on the inside of every top-of-the-line Stetsonhat. The full restoration was completed in October 1994.The Additions (2003)In an effort to provide more space, luxury offerings and up the ante on experience, in January 2003 the HermosaLegacy Partners added a library and boardroom for special events and meeting space, in addition to the awardwinningunderground wine cellar – where Megargee’s secret underground tunnels were found when excavating.The Here and Now (2009 – Present Day)In 2009, The Hermosa Inn underwent a two million dollar rooms remodel and property enhancement. Sincethen the owners have continued to build upon the artful traditions that Megargee originally instilled in theproperty. This has most recently included the addition of an art installment worth over $2 million dollars thatfeatures the works of well-known Southwestern artists in the newly created sculpture garden, as well asthroughout the resort, restaurant and grounds.To this day it has been said that Megargee, who died in Northern Arizona in 1960, still pays visits to CasaHermosa from time to time.
