Start your evening cruising along the waters of Lake Wakatipu from Queenstown aboard either the iconic vintage TSS Earnslaw steamship or the sleek Spirit of Queenstown.
Step inside the charming lakeside Colonel’s Homestead Restaurant, where the enticing scent of wood-fired BBQ fills the air. Our chefs prepare a mouthwatering spread using the finest local ingredients, featuring a generous buffet of crisp salads, seasonal vegetables, and tender cuts of locally sourced meat. Don't forget the selection of desserts! With panoramic views of Lake Whakatipu and Queenstown’s alpine backdrop, the Colonel’s Homestead offers an idyllic setting steeped in colonial charm and surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds.
Your visit also includes a lively farm demonstration. Watch skilled farm dogs expertly herd sheep and get up close with friendly farm animals. If time allows, take a peaceful stroll through the lakeside gardens before boarding the vessel for your scenic return cruise to Queenstown.

We took the old ship which was a joy to be on. The cruise was smooth sailing and lovely views .The dinner is fantastic! Plenty of choices to choose from and the quality is top notch. Service is great and the views from the restaurant are spectacular.

This was surprisingly better than expected, as I expected a poorly done tourist trap. This was indeed interesting as the ship itself was interesting and the dinner excellent.

We had an enjoyable time on the TSS Earnslaw while cruising on Lake Wakatipu. Once reaching the Walter Peak High Country Farm, we were impressed to find that we had a reserved table for our group (4 adults). The Buffet was plentiful and delicious. Our waitress was attentive and friendly. The grounds are very pretty, and it would have been nice to have a little time to stroll the property before having to walk over to watch the sheep shearing show. The show was educational and entertaining. The time in the gift shop was a bit short, before having to reboard the TSS Earnslaw steamboat to be ferried back to Queenstown. Overall, very nice evening.

It was a beautiful boat ride and the real steamboat was really cool. You can see the guy shoveling coal. Dinner was fantastic and everyone was friendly.

Amazing experience. First the trip on steamer Earnslaw, and then the beautiful gardens, dining set-up and service at Walter Peak. Despite in excess of 200 people attending dinner, the organisation and service could not be faulted. Plentiful and wide range of buffet food, without the usual scramble. The live dog and sheep farm show was also educational and interesting.

What a wonderful location in beautiful Queenstown for a cruise across the lake in perfect weather ! Stunning views 360 degrees . Fascinating to be able to see the engines in action on the steamship , feel the heat and see the coal fires burning . The Walter Peak high country farm served up a stunning selection of food- my favourites were the tender and tasty lamb and venison . Top of the desert treat list was Sticky toffee pudding - everything beautifully presented . Quite a crowd but everyone well spread and placed so not overwhelming . Something for everyone ( even vegan ) all in a large homestead farmhouse with Dave Dobbyn playing through the speakers. Mia the Working dog stole the farm show as the star , perfectly executing her sheep rounding duties without a care in the world for all the eyes watching her . Also a chance to take home a piece of freshly sheared wool off an obliging lamb ! It was all as kiwi as kiwi gets ! Loved it

What a fantastic evening we had. The boat is amazing and the trip over just beautiful. The bbq dinner was absolutely amazing and one of the best meals we had in queenstown. The sheep dog and shearing show was also a heap of fun. Couldn't rate the experience any higher
