Within the bounds of the stockade there were about 20 lodges, partially subterranean structures about 20 by 30 feet (6.1 m × 9.1 m), which were accessed by entry tunnels.

The site is subject to erosion, which the state has taken steps to mitigate by the installation of gabions on the creek bank.

Materials from the site are archived at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, and at the state archaeological office.
