About this property

🍀 The Lucky Charm on Beaver Island's Lake Geneserath!


The Lucky Charm – Hemlock Point, Beaver Island
Escape to quieter times on peaceful Lake Geneserath. Nestled on a quiet peninsula at the sunny south end of Beaver Island, The Lucky Charm offers a serene retreat in a peaceful residential neighborhood—this is not a party house. No jet skis are permitted on the property (please save those for Lake Michigan).
The southern end of the island is known for some of its finest beaches. You’re just a short distance from Cables Bay, Iron Ore Beach, and the historic Beaver Head Lighthouse. Enjoy the sun, sand, and clear blue waters of summer, or visit in fall to experience the island’s stunning autumn colors.
The Property
This well-appointed 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is ideal for families, friends, fishing trips, or a quiet remote-work getaway. Enjoy excellent Wi-Fi, a peaceful setting, and beautiful lake views from the deck.
The main level features two bedrooms (one queen, one double) and a full bathroom with a walk-in accessible shower. Upstairs you’ll find two additional bedrooms (one queen and one with two single beds) plus a second full bathroom with a walk-in shower.
The kitchen is fully stocked, and the living area includes a television with Roku, games, and DVDs. A washer and dryer are located in the basement, along with extra lawn chairs, life jackets, and beach toys. A charcoal grill is provided (charcoal not included). Guests are welcome to bring their own bikes or kayaks, or rent equipment in town.
Lake Geneserath is home to a variety of wildlife, excellent fishing, and nesting loons. Relax on the deck with morning coffee, toast the sunset, and enjoy the dark, starry night skies.

Absolutely beautiful. We sat on the deck in the morning with coffee and listened to the loons calling. We gazed at the millions of stars visible in the night sky. The property is perfect. It was clean, well tended and fully stocked with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The house was comfortable and homey. Monica was great at communicating and very welcoming. We would absolutely stay here again!

Our third stay at the Lucky Charm and it continues to be the perfect spot for our family. The kids love playing in Lake G. We all enjoyed kayaking to the North and South Arms, and hiking down the Cable Bay trail to the beach. The night sky was amazing and we were serenaded by 9 loons this year. The house is so clean and we had all the amenities we needed. The kitchen is perfectly situated for family meals. Nobody missed their electronics as we were so busy puzzling, crafting, hiking and swimming. Thanks to Monica and Dave for hosting this fantastic retreat for our family!
