The Village of Cache Creek decided to establish a cemetery either by upgrading the Collins family cemetery or purchasing another property.

In 2007, it was decided to rename the Collins Family Cemetery to what is currently Cache Creek Cemetery.

In 2009, the cemetery was completely renovated, some unmarked graves were identified and a commemorative stone was placed honoring the legacy of the Collins family.
