Businesses in Point Pass thrived in its heyday - saddlers,
carpenters, blacksmiths, upholsterers, a cheese and butter factory,
and even a watchmaker. For all its historic buildings which still
stand, Point Pass is now more of a dormitory town for Robertstown
and Eudunda. One business which still continues is the Hotel, the
doors of which were first opened in 1876. The original stone
stables, with mellowed walls two feet thick, are part of the hotel
complex.
Two surprises are in store for travellers between Eudunda and
Point Pass. The first is the Lutheran Church, serving Point Pass
and district, with itsgold painteddomed roof which dazzles
motorists as they drive past. The second building of note is the
Old Lutheran Boarding College, a complex of graceful proportions
with all the rooms fitted out with antiques, each with its own
unique theme.
