The shelter is believed to have been used by Native Americans from 500 BCE until the 1700s. The last known occupants were related to the Tonkawa. It is accessible via the 0.8 mile round-trip Rockshelter Trail in the park.

The shelter abuts Onion Creek and is one of two natural rock shelters in Travis County to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places (the other is the Levi Rock Shelter).
