The only notable structures in Seeheim today are the hotel and the railway station; only a handful of people live there.

Early in the 20th century its sole purpose was that of a junction station where the lines from Keetmanshoop diverted to Lüderitz and Karasburg.

People travelling from the inland to Lüderitz had to stay overnight at Seeheim junction.

The maintenance and repair of the railway line remains an ongoing struggle for the Namibian Government.

Apart from Seeheim Hotel, a nostalgic stopover for tourists on their way to Fish River Canyon, there is a furniture maker.
