Hebard – Ford Summer House
Hebard – Ford Summer House, Historic summer residence in Pequaming, Michigan, United States
The Hebard-Ford Summer House features a rectangular two-story structure with white clapboards, low gable roof, and long shed dormers on Lake Superior's shore.
Daniel Hebard constructed this lodge in 1914, and Henry Ford acquired it in 1923, using it as his summer retreat until 1941 during his timber operations.
The property represents the architectural preferences of industrial leaders in the early 1900s, with its bungaloid style and spacious eight-bedroom layout.
The house includes seven bathrooms, French doors opening to a veranda, multiple bedrooms, a living room, dining room, and office space for contemporary vacation rentals.
The residence stands as the central structure of a former logging town that produced wooden components for Ford station wagons between 1923 and 1942.
