The name Bee Cave originated from a group of early settlers who named it after finding a large cave filled with wild bees. Eventually in 1870 a post office was opened under the Bee Cave name followed by a trading post that was operated by Wiley Johnson in 1871. During the mid-1880s the Bee Cave community had about 20 residents, as well as a school, a church, a general store, a cotton gin, and a steam gristmill. In the early 1890s the population had briefly fallen to 10 residents, however it quickly came back up to a total of 54 residents by 1914.
In 1915 the local post office had shut down and community mail was redirected to Cedar Valley. During the 1940s the Bee Cave school was merged with the Teck school district and in 1951 it merged with the Dripping Springs Independent School District located in Hays County. From that point onwards until the 1980s the population remained at 50. Eventually in 1990 it grew to 241 and 656 by 2000. By this time Bee Cave had its own schools, public library, and parks and recreational facilities.
