The Hackley and Hume Houses, located in Muskegon, Michigan, were the residences of Charles H. Hackley and his business partner Thomas Hume. Hackley was the owner of the J.H. Hackley & Co. lumbering firm which he started with his father in 1859, and was joined by Hume in 1881 to create the Hackley and Hume lumbering firm. The success of their lumbering company allowed Hackley to purchase land for his family's new home and sold part of it to his partner, who also built his family home there. Both homes were designed by David S. Hopkins in the Queen Anne style, Hume's completed in 1888, and Hackley's in 1889. The homes share the 'City Barn', a carriage house built between the houses. Both homes stayed in the family until around the 1950's, and joined the list of National Register of Historic Places by 1972. Both were fully restored and open for tours by 2017.
