The site is located along a now-inundated tributary of the Indian River, with the main living area of the camp on top of a low knoll.
Shell middens and refuse heaps, some as much as 8 metres (26 ft) in diameter, are located down the slopes of the knoll.
Evidence of the site indicates it was occupied during the Adena culture during the Early Woodland Period.
The Wilgus family continuously owned the land where the excavations were conducted along the Indian River inlet from the 17th Century.
