Hello and welcome! I’m Suda, your host at Ponz Lake Retreat. As a passionate runner and a dedicated wine lover, Nagambie immediately captured my heart. It is the absolute perfect destination for combining a scenic morning run along the water with an afternoon exploring world-class vineyards. I created this retreat to share that exact slice of lakeside paradise with you. Because I want you to experience the very best of our local region right away, a complimentary bottle of local wine will be waiting for you upon arrival. Uncorking a great bottle and looking out toward the water is my absolute favorite way to unwind here, and I know you’ll love it too. For the active travelers and runners joining us, you will love our location. You are just a 1-minute stroll from the water, and a leisurely 5-minute warm-up jog will take you right to the starting line of the local lakeside parkrun. If you prefer a slower pace, that same path offers a stunning boardwalk stroll right into town for a premium dinner. Whether you are here for a weekend of wine tasting at Mitchelton and Tahbilk, hitting the running trails, or just escaping the city hustle, my goal is to make your stay seamless and memorable. Unpack, pour a glass, and welcome to your lakeside sanctuary!
