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.

Fantastic experience, fantastic food and fantastic staff, especially for the price of admission. While the ship can feel a bit crowded, there is more than enough room to find some quiet space to enjoy the surroundings and views. A must experience for those who love history, fine food and wonderful landscapes.

Great cruise on a very unique boat. Definitely check out the engine room during the cruise, AND the mini-museum. Food was awesome, and the show more entertaining than I’d expected. Loved the sheepdogs! fantastic show. May seem a bit pricey, but IMO great value for money.
Pleasant Evening

Trip on the TSS Earnshaw was lovely but quite busy on board. There was no direction as to what to do when arriving at Walter Peak so just followed the crowd and likewise there was no information about when the farming show would happen. Location/setting at the restaurant was excellent, plenty of choice of food which was mostly good, the BBQ meats were tasty but unfortunately cold.
Above expectations

This was a trip I was looking forward to and was not disappointed.It had been arranged as my birthday dinner .The steam ship trip was wonderful with great sights to look at on the way or just to look at the engine room.The meal was a highlight.All the meat- pork, lamb, venison ,chicken cooked to perfection.My favourite was the abundance of seafood.I did put a small amount of salad on my plate but was too full for much.I had some dessert but would forgo this next time to eat some more of the mains.Very organised and good coming out all the time.The sheep show was great .The house and grounds at Walter peak are stunning. A must do
Iconic experience - definately for kiwis as well as overseas visitors.

The Earnslaw is an iconic steamship, and the Walter Peak Farm an iconic high country farm. As a kiwi it is easy to dismiss these things as just for "overseas tourists". Well fellow kiwis: if you haven't done this I can certainly recommend it. Not only is the Earnslaw is a wonderful old ship, you can get down into the engine room and see those original 2 steam engines cranking away up close! The dinner at the Walter Peak farm was also excellent: so much venison - I think I OD'd on that, and all the other great food. And lastly: the sheepdog demo. Again, as a kiwi, I was thinking that this was another "meh - this is for overseas visitors" moment. But no: we really enjoyed it - amazingly smart dog, and the "shepherd" (can't remember his name) was great. So: message to kiwis: go do this!
Beautiful evening on the lake
