Longstreet Inn Left Out

I noted with interest your article on Ash Meadows [National Wildlife Refuge] in the January/February issue. A nice piece. However, as the owner of the Longstreet Inn, it would have been nice to mention that first-class accommodations are available less than a 10-minute drive from Ash Meadows.
On another subject relative to the history of the Mizpah Hotel, I would like to point out that part of your chronology was incorrect. Myron Stahl and Les Short operated the hotel until the mid-1970s, when it was sold to Frank Scott. He sold it to Bill Allison and Bert Basolis. They later lost their gaming license, and I leased the gaming from 1992-95. I purchased the closed Valley Bank Building and relocated the gaming to the Banc Club. The Mizpah was foreclosed on shortly thereafter and sat vacant for 10 years prior to the Clines’ purchase.
