Visiting the Real Cedar Cove
In the summer, Port Orchard gets visitors who come into town to see the real Cedar Cove and I sometimes have occasion to meet them. Often when they first meet me they are a bit hesitant. I want my readers to know that I’m friendly. If you expect me to look like my publicity photo you might be in for a shock. Okay, on a good day there’s a resemblance. Unfortunately, make-up artists and hairdressers don’t usually follow me around to enhance my look. One of the most frequent comments is, “I thought you’d be taller.” Trust me, I wish I was, too. One nice thing is that rarely does anyone say, “Oh, I thought you’d be thinner.” Thank you.

Debbie I just love all your books. My favorite series is the Angels they need to bra Christmas movie! I think my next one is The Rose Harbor series I love the characters and I can see the bed & breakfast and the rose garden My one question would be why must a story end? I want it to go on and on and know what everyone is doing. LOL

Hi Debbie – as you may remember, I won the “Cedar Cove” trip a few years ago, and was lucky enough to stay at the Cedar Cove Inn! What a beautiful place, in a gorgeous setting. It was such a great trip – a wonderful experience, and I’ll never be able to thank you enough.
August 16th, 2016 at 2:56 pm
I was lucky enough to visit here last summer. It really is a beautiful place and I have a picture of me in front of that sign too. Itwas my first time in Seattle, we are from Ohio. It was the highlight of my vacation! I have read all your books and love them all! Keep writing!

My husband & I came to Cedar Cove last year for our 25th wedding anniversary & absolutely fell in love with the Inn, the town, people, & most of all Kathy. When I booked the trip I got some much flack from my husband and then we got there & had to come home we both did not want to have to. We so want to come back for another visit, soon I hope! Thank you for your books & the series and introducingme to this beautiful part of the world & wonderful people.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:07 pm
My favorite memory of you. Book signing in Middle Tennessee.
It was around my birthday (August 14th) and you and the audience sang Happy Birthday to me. Made my day. ????
August 16th, 2016 at 3:11 pm
Thank you for all the great stories. I feel like I know all these people. I give your books to my 87 year old mother. She loves them. I love the Rose Harbor series. I love the show on Hallmark, Cedar Cove. The actors are wonderful.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:11 pm
Love you, love your books, love the knitting and blessing projects you let us participate in. I’ve only been to Port Orchard once but it’s only an hour away. I love all your books and need to make more trips to your beautiful town.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:12 pm
I will forever remember meeting you while in line to see the David in Florence, Italy. You were so very kind to say hello and let me get a photo of you and I. I remember seeing you and thinking, “is that Debbie Macomber? Here, in Italy, just feet from me?” That was really a fun moment on my trip! A lasting memory. Thank you again for your kindness.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:12 pm
Dear not k ow if you remember me, my husband and I stopped by to visit your store little did I k ow I was gonna me you in person and both your daughter’s and your staff. It was amazing. Thank you for your hospitality!
August 16th, 2016 at 3:13 pm
Hi Lived in Port Orchard back in 1975 and now I have a sister there. We go there as much as we can. I have a couple of autographed books my sister sent me for Christmas. I have read many of your books in fact reading one now. I really was not happy when they cancelled the Cedar Cove Series. Keep on writing so we can keep on reading!!
August 16th, 2016 at 3:17 pm
Debbie,
I noticed the Cedar Cove Inn was for sale in December. Looks like it still is. I pray someone with Jo Marie’s heart will buy it!
Thanks for wrapping up the series the way you did. The last book was wonderful! I won’t say anything more in case someone hasn’t read it yet, but wow, it was worth the wait.
Blessings!
August 16th, 2016 at 3:20 pm
All your books are simply sweet and magical…but I especially adore your Christmas Angel books and your Mrs and Mr Miracle books. I do hope you continue Mr. Miracle and I would love to see more Miracle movies as well as your Angel movies with Shirley, Goodness and Mercy -and Will!! Thank you for being my unofficial writing mentor…I would love to meet you one day soon, as fellow writers and creative minds.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:23 pm
Debbie,
I had the pleasure of meeting you last August in Raleigh, NC. You were everything I expected and more.
On a side note, Sweet Tomorrows fabulous! I read the entire book in one day.
Take care,
Mandi
August 16th, 2016 at 3:24 pm
I’ve met you at book signings and joined the stitch and sail trip met you three or 4 times on the cruise
It would have been great to see you in your environment not being rushed in here out their but it was great and I’m glad I went. I visited the cedar cove in would have loved to sit outside and enjoyed the view had a glass of wine. Hopefully one day I’ll return just to visit with no place to go.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:26 pm
Debbie…..just love your books. Would live to visit Cedar Cove. Can you provide an address …..just might include on our next vacation! I live in Bermuda and this would be a nice change of scenery !!!
Regards
Debbie
August 16th, 2016 at 3:30 pm
Hi Debbie,
I’d love to see the real Cedar Cove but unfortunately, I live in Massachusetts. Too far to go to see some of my favorite places from the Cedar Cove series and The Rose Harbor series. Is Blossom Street there too? Love them all but since they can’t go on forever, I await the next one. Also love the Angels series. Hope that one’s not over yet.
Diane
August 16th, 2016 at 3:32 pm
Debbie, I just loved the Cedar Cove and Rose Harbor series. I look forward to when I can visit the real Cedar Cove Inn and hopefully meet you someday. It looks wonderful!
Please keep the series coming! Laura
August 16th, 2016 at 3:36 pm
Visited Port Orchard ( Cedar Cove) the 26-29 of July , what a beautiful place! I Have read the whole cedar Cove series and wish Hallmark would of kept the show going! Walking around town I could see all the resemblances almost expected to see some of the characters around town! The only thing that would of made it better would of been to meet you! I did get to acquire an autographed copy of your Come Home to Color, the lady just brought them down into the yarn shop when I got there. Hope someday to visit there again!
August 16th, 2016 at 3:42 pm
Hi Debbie I so love your books, there books that I feel good about reading. I came to visit last year you weren’t there so I missed you, but I’d love to come visit again I didn’t see this house, I went to your store and loved it, but is this place a place that we can visit? I’m just wondering God Bless you and hope to see you soon.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:48 pm
Love the books….just finishing up the latest one and cant wait to see how it ends. Looking forward to reading other books you write. Would love to visit the real house someday.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:50 pm
Would love to visit the place someday. Love all your books
August 16th, 2016 at 3:51 pm
Love your books, I live in Port Orchard so relate to them. Keep on writing. . . !!?
August 16th, 2016 at 3:54 pm
I love all of your books. I can’t pick ones to be my favorite. The closet to a favorite is the cedar cove books. The only problem I have with your books is that I read them the day they come out and then I have to wait awhile for your next one. I hope to come and meet you in person one day.
August 16th, 2016 at 3:58 pm
I so enjoyed our visit when I met you in the Yard Shop and had visited with Jody in the gift shop. It was a few summers ago and we had also lost our son in 2010. I didn’t tell you about it but knew it was almost about 1 year before after sharing some with Jody. We visited took some pictures and you signed some of you post card for me to send to some of my friends and my 80 year old aunt. (You shared you photo tip of swallowing before the picture is taken…LOL). I took them across the street to mail the off to those special people. Good memories of that day. And I think you look fine! We are both short and compact…Your friend, Nancy
August 16th, 2016 at 4:00 pm
Hi Debbie, how do I find the cedar Cove website? I’d like to visit there one d
ay! Betty
August 16th, 2016 at 4:06 pm
Visited “Cedar Cove” last year for,our Anniversary. Walked up to,the Tea Room and Yarn Shop from our ahotel downtown. One of your awesome Waitresses at the Tea Room showed me how to catch the bus back to town and she rode with me. I was a little tired when I got up there, but it was worth every minute spent there.
August 16th, 2016 at 4:09 pm
Hi Debbie,
Coming to the Cedar Cove Inn is on my bucket list! My friend and I read all of your books and are praying that someday we can spend a week there. She lives in Az. and I live in Pa. We have been best friends for almost 40 years. Hope to see you there someday. Keep up the good work. I am reading Sweet Tomorrow’s and do not want it to end!
August 16th, 2016 at 4:16 pm
That is such a great picture! I just finished Sweet Tomorrows. It was magical! I will really mis Jo Marie and all of the other Rose Harbour characters including Rover and Elvis!
August 16th, 2016 at 4:21 pm
Dear Debbie
I have enjoyed your many wonderful
Stories for a long time now.
My granddaughter and I took a road trip
A few years ago from Medical Lake to
Colville to meet you. It was a thrill to
See the my favorite author.
If I had to pick a favorite series, I think
It would be the Cedar Cove Series.
I would love to one day visit there,
Maybe I will. Keep on writing. ???
August 16th, 2016 at 4:27 pm
Well, I recently learned that I read the Rose Harbor series out of order, so I started all over again and I have 50 pages to read in Silver Linings. Then I can start your latest release! Love this series as much as Cedar Cove. Thanks for always giving us a way to “get away from it all”.
August 16th, 2016 at 4:45 pm
I love all your books. Having lived in both Bremerton and Gig Harbor,
I am very familiar with the real Cedar Cove.
Knowing the area makes the books more real.
I would not want to be asked my favorite series.
Each book is my favorite when I read it.
I even enjoy rereading the books.
August 16th, 2016 at 5:10 pm
I love your books, and would one day love to visit “Cedar Cove” Port Orchard, it is on my bucket list. I love that you bring a real place to life with your characters. I haven’t been able to read some of your new books as I am still reading some of the older books. I love your Angels, and of course Cedar Cove. Working on getting to Rose Harbor soon. I hope when I do make it up there, I will get a chance to meet you. Please keep writing those wonderful stores. I am also sorry the Cedar Cove series ended. Loved the show. Andie MacDowell was great choice for Olivia.
August 16th, 2016 at 5:24 pm
I got my first “Debbie” book at a yard sale for 25 cents. Been hooked on your books ever since. I collect Danielle Steele, Nora Roberts, Fern Michaels, and Nichols Sparks books. Then along came the “Debbie” books, Became my favorite author. Had to buy a new book shelve to hold only your books. I recently moved and could not take my books with me. So with tears in my eyes, I donated all my books to a Senior Living Apartment complex’s library. But… I will continue to buy your books, and keep donating. You are an amazing writer. Love to get a new “Debbie” book.
August 16th, 2016 at 5:30 pm
Hi Debbie, on my bucket list is to visit Pt Orchard and meet you.I love all your books and thank you for sharing your talent with us.I have an idea for you to write a book about called The Doctor and the Beauty Queen. Im sure you have lots of ideas for that.Thank you again for your books.
August 16th, 2016 at 5:40 pm
Debbie , my sister and I visited Port Orchard June 2015. We stayed at the Cedar Cove Inn . We had a great time and enjoyed our visit so much . We toured the town and your Cedar cove series shops . We ate lunch the tea room and it was wonderful . Thank you for bring your town to life in your Cedar Cove Series .
August 16th, 2016 at 5:42 pm

August 16th, 2016 at 5:47 pm
I visited both your Yarn Shop and The Grey House just yesterday. Wonderful experience all the way around! And terrifically friendly folks you have working for you; loved chatting with them. I hope to visit once a year from California when staying with a friend in Olalla. Definitely something to look forward to!
August 16th, 2016 at 5:51 pm
Debbie, I stayed up very late last to finish Sweet Tomorrows. I just could not put it down until I knew everyone would be safe and happy! I will now loan it to my best friend. It is always hard when one of your series ends, but you did it perfectly! Now just anxious for the next book, which will probably be your Christmas one. I too wish I was thinner, oh well, I am older, like to cook and eat!??
August 16th, 2016 at 5:52 pm
Debbie, I had the pleasure of meeting you and visiting Cedar Cove almost 3 years ago in Oct. I love that area so much and it is beautiful. You are a wonderful writer, I love all of your books, and you were a very graceful hostess. I want to be you when I grow up, I am 78 yrs old.
August 16th, 2016 at 5:54 pm
I would love to meet you in person one day and tell you in person. Thank you for your Cedar Cove series. I understand the books are fiction but it has help to heal some of my own pain. For now I Thank you but in person I hope to hug you and say Thank you.
Your truly
Patti
August 16th, 2016 at 5:58 pm
Hi Debbie, I remember when I read my first Cedar Cove book. I thought to myself how much it reminded me of m home town of Port Orchard…well duh. You surely captured it!
I’ve since moved back to Port Orchard after moving around the Western US for 22 yrs and am delighted, even though it has changed, to now see thru your stories that it’s still the same as it ever was.
Thank you,
Your hometown girl,
Sheryl
August 16th, 2016 at 5:59 pm
Oh Debbie! Your self-depreciating humor is so not needed! I think I would recognize you just by your aura of goodness and light! Silly lady! I have really enjoyed the series via Netflix and so sad to know it was short lived… when I am watching, as happy as I am to watch it, it makes me really miss living in the GREAT Pacific Northwest!
August 16th, 2016 at 6:14 pm
My sisters and I visited just last Wednesday. They were disappointed that you were out of town. It was my 3rd trip back to touch base with Cedar Cove. Love love love all of your books. Thank you for helping us heal hearts, meet new friends, and escape from our own worlds for a bit.
August 16th, 2016 at 6:16 pm
Port Orchard is beautiful and on my bucket list! Have enjoyed all you books and looking forward to your next one. Just finished the Rose Harbor Series!!
I met you in Mount Dora Florida several years age and was just a
and was just a pleasure and joy to meet you and your husband. Then my daughter had the pleasure to meet you in Cummings Ga also ! We love your books.
Take care and God bless.
Christine
August 16th, 2016 at 6:17 pm
Debbie, we were in Port Orchard two weeks ago. Been a long time since there. Saw (from the road) your office and what we used to call the Victorian Inn. Sorry we couldn’t stop to see if you were there!!!
August 16th, 2016 at 6:20 pm
You inspired me to write a series of novels (historical fiction) based on people who once lived in a village once occupied by the American Navy during World War 11. Thank you for your inspiration.
August 16th, 2016 at 6:36 pm
Debbie I so love your books – the Cedar Cove series – I wish it was finished – loved the show too. I love the Rose Harbour series as well. I am sorry to hear you are not continuing that one either. I also read the Texas ones, the Alaska ones, and the Dakota ones loved them too. Not into knitting so did not follow Blossom Street and have read a few Christmas ones. I would love to visit the real Cedar Cove . I would have loved to take part in the Cedar Cove days a few years ago. Unfortunately I live in Eastern Canada. New Brunswick.
August 16th, 2016 at 6:37 pm
I just want to thank you for the many hours of reading pleasure you have brought to me. I have so enjoyed getting to know your characters and the lovely places they inhabit. Thank you.
August 16th, 2016 at 6:46 pm
Met you last year and didn’t once think or say “I thought you’d be taller”. My immediate thoughts were OMG, I’m meeting Debbie Macomber. LOL.
August 16th, 2016 at 6:48 pm
Your books make me so happy. They are always full of humor and fun. I look forward to each and everyone. Thank you for being a bright light in this world.
August 16th, 2016 at 6:49 pm
Love your books!!! And the movies made from your stories. My husband and I land in Seattle this Thursday! First stop Port Orchard! Can’t wait to visit your town!!!
August 16th, 2016 at 6:53 pm
I had the pleasure of lunch at your restaurant and then meeting you after. You were sweet, gracious, and as charming as I expected! You were so down-to-earth and comfortable to visit with, that it was a highlight of our trip to visit friends in Port Orchard! Thank you for all the hours of entertainment reading your books.
August 16th, 2016 at 6:59 pm
We visited the real Cedar Cove (Port Orchard) because of the book series. Both my husband and I love, love and love Port Orchard. Really hope there is another visit in our future! Thank you for your many great series!
August 16th, 2016 at 7:04 pm
Hi Debbie!
Thank you for blessing us with your gift of amazing story telling! I am a knitter and I hope to come to Port Orchard this Fall to visit your yarn shop, “A Good Yarn” I love the creative name!
Love and Blessings to you!
August 16th, 2016 at 7:11 pm
I got to visit your office and meet you five years ago when visiting my daughter who lives near Seattle.
It was very special to be greeted by you and have you give us a tour. Then we enjoyed a great luncheon next door.
If I lived closer I would sign up for a knitting shop.
Hope you make it back to The Villages for a book signing some day.
August 16th, 2016 at 7:14 pm
I started with the angel series years ago and return to them between other books. Love ceder cove and hope I see it someday. I’m reading Last One Home now.
Come to Palm Springs sometime?
August 16th, 2016 at 7:15 pm
I am one of the lucky fans. I was visiting in the area and had the chance to meet you. Not only did you take the time out of your day to meet me, you took time to speak with my 13 year old grandson. It was truly a dream come true.
I met my favorite author whom seems like a dear friend. Turning Port Orchid was a thrill meeting and visiting with you was a thrill words can not express.
You look WONDERFUL and happen to be perfect inside and out. I have the picture we made that day on my desktop so I can remember that day. When I see it pop up several times a day. It warms my heart and makes me smile.
Thank you again for spending time with my family and I !
Your number one Fan !
August 16th, 2016 at 7:19 pm
Zaire hope I get a chance to visit the inn sometime. It looks absolutely beautiful. Love your books. Sometimes when a new one comes out. Like the Rose Harbor series, I go back and reread them all. Thanks for the wonderful books.
August 16th, 2016 at 7:24 pm
I hope I get a chance to visit the inn sometime. It looks absolutely beautiful. Sometime when a new book comes out in the series like the Rose Harbor series I go back k and reread them in order. Thanks I love your books.
August 16th, 2016 at 7:35 pm
I think you’re beautiful… Instead and out.
August 16th, 2016 at 7:49 pm
I finished Sweet Tommorows and loved it. It was a wonderful end to the series. I have read Cedar Cove series and Blossom street series and now The Rose Harbor series…I love all of them….I now have begun reading The Heart of Texas series….I am only on the first book, Lonesome Cowboy and I am enjoying it….I can’t wait to see what else you have in store for. us!
August 16th, 2016 at 7:53 pm
Why oh why did Hallmark cancel the show? I loved it! Miss it!
August 16th, 2016 at 8:02 pm
I absolutely loved Port Orchard when I visited in 2014 and getting to meet Debbie again was awesome. Loved this place so much I am going back again next year. Can’t wait.
August 16th, 2016 at 8:11 pm
You are the funniest! Love everything you have here written about Cedar Cove. I would love to visit there someday.
You are beautiful with or without makeup. And you are as tall as you feel. I love all your books and get them ever time they are published. Thanks for the romance and fun.
August 16th, 2016 at 8:11 pm
i would love to visit Cedar Cove….it is on my bucket list….i’m already 77 and my husband is not in the best of health so things don’t look that good for a visit…but i do dream about it as i have read most all of your books. Keep on writing Debbie.
Nancy Weller
August 16th, 2016 at 8:38 pm
You are by far the best author I have ever read. When I hit the lottery, my first trip is to come to Port Orchard.
That is such a beautiful place. Very peaceful. Just sit on the porch and read your books. ???
August 16th, 2016 at 8:57 pm
I have read and loved your books for ever, starting with the Cedar Cove series, then Blossom St, and and now Rose
Harbor Inn. I am definitely planning to visit Port Orchard on my next trip to the PNW. I would so love to meet you! I don’t care if you’re wearing sweats and no makeup!
August 16th, 2016 at 9:28 pm
I loved all your Cedar Cove stories and also the Cedar Cove series on Hallmark
Still plan to read your new novels !
August 16th, 2016 at 9:51 pm
Debbie I love your books. I grew up and moved away from Port Orchard and it always brings me back home. My last few visits home to see the parents I’ve stayed at the Inn. Just love the peace and tranquility it brings me. You may not remember but your daughter and I were friends when I was younger – we’d sit in her bedroom and sing Whitney Houston songs.
I’ve tried to catch you both at the tea room on my last visit home. So far no luck.
May God continue to bless you and your family. You were a wonderful “friends” mom back in the day and I’m sure it still holds true as a grandmother today.
August 16th, 2016 at 9:53 pm
Love the Cedar Cove series on hallmark, watching them over again on Netflix! Would love to visit the “real” Cedar Cove, it looks so inviting!
August 16th, 2016 at 9:55 pm
Love your books and I have a large collection probably 50 or 60 of them. My favorite series was the Cedar cove series, but I haven’t read them all, but I have them all even found the last few in used book shops. I also like the Navy series but again I haven’t read the complete series (My son was in the Navy for ten years on the East coast). The one question I have is why do you refer to an ambulance as an Aid car just curious. Thank you for your stories.
August 16th, 2016 at 10:00 pm
I love all your books. When I had my heart surgery I read 17 books all by you. You are my favorite writer. I always wanted to visit Cedar Cove. One day I hope to get there.
August 16th, 2016 at 10:32 pm
I LOVE ALL OF YOUR BOOKS BUT CADAR. COVE AND ROSE HARBOR ARE MY ALL TIME BEST READS WOULD LOVE IF YOU COULD REVISIT CADAR COVE TELL HOW ALL THE PEOPLE ARE NOW WOULD LOVE TO VISIT CADAR COVE SOMEDAY KEEP ON WRITING YOU ARE THE BEST.
August 16th, 2016 at 10:48 pm
I enjoy your series books so much. thank you for sharing your gift.
August 16th, 2016 at 10:49 pm
thanks for sharing your gift I love your series books
August 16th, 2016 at 10:49 pm
Adore all your books. Just received Sweet Tomorrow’s but haven’t started it. I buy some of your books twice because I buy them as a pre sale and then when they are just coming out, I forget and order again before the preorder has come so I end up with 2. I usually give one to a friend. Thanks for your stories. They are a bright spot in my world
August 16th, 2016 at 11:01 pm
My daughter lived in Port Orchard for 3 years. I loved visiting there. It’s so beautiful. The whole area is lovely.
August 16th, 2016 at 11:26 pm
I love the Cedar Cove series,I used to live in Port Orchard on Austin Ave. and watching the series brought back lots of fond memories,one day I hope to re visit it. Thanks for the memories.
August 17th, 2016 at 12:14 am
I have most of your books but have read every single one. Just received last one in Inn series. I never want a series to stop! I love how you write from your heart. That always shines through your words. I feel like I know you and appreciate the wonderful way you have with words. Priceless to me.
THANKS!

August 17th, 2016 at 12:38 am
Debbie, I started reading your books when I had foot surgery a year and a half ago. I love your books! I’d love to meet you sometime. Come to Nebraska! I can’t wait to read more of your books.
August 17th, 2016 at 12:41 am
I am so disappointed that Cedar Cove is not on any longer!!
August 17th, 2016 at 12:41 am
Visiting Port Orchard, Cedar Cove, meeting you and visiting your yarn shop would be a dream come true. I may not come home. Thank you for all your hard work.

Love your books! Hate Cedar Cove won’t be on this year!

I have enjoyed your books and the Cedar Cove on Hallmark. Please tell me why we don’t have a series this year?

Debbie,
Love, love, love your books. Please keep writing so I can keep meeting new and charming characters in the most interesting ways. Loved the Cedar Cove series on Hallmark and wish they would have continued as there was so much more to tell. Stay healthy and happy!

We loved our time at the Cedar Cove Inn. I put all the pictures into a Shutterfly book. Wish I could show it to you! I too love your books- have over 90 of them! I am the one that met you in San Antonio and our picture was in the newspaper. Blessings!

I LOVED The Cedar Cove Series and it is truly on my bucket list to visit Port Orchard sooner than later.

I’ve been to the Cedar Cove in. It’s a beautiful place, also got to meet you which was the highlight of the day. You’re just great. Watched the Cedar Cove movie on tv and was so sorry when it ended. Wish it would come back on. Also read all of your books and I’m on the list at the library for your Christmas book in October. I love all your books. Was sorry to see the Rose Harbor series ..end as I feel as if i know the characters . Keep them coming and I’ll keep reading them. You are quite a gal

You are my favorite author of all times. I have read most of your books as well as the much earlier stories. Now, I am rereading your series and thoroughly enjoy them the second time around as I did the first time. Thank you for keeping me so entertained.

Hi Debbie, My husband and I moved from California to Port Orchard in 2014. We lived there for one year and fell in love with the beauty of the area. Loved meeting you at your Tea Room brunch. I look forward to coming back for a visit. Loved the Manchester area! Cedar Cove was a favorite TV show. I miss it!

So happy to hear that most of your fans are hesitant when they first see you. I too just stared I seeing you sitting at your desk,when I walked into your office with my cousins. We had just spent the night at The Cedar Cove Inn. I am not sure if we had lunch at your tea house before or after our visit with you. What a great day that was for me. Meeting your daughter in your gift shop put the day over the top. Thank you for the wonderful memory! Sad to be reading the last of the Rose Harbor series.
August 17th, 2016 at 4:50 am
Love your books especially the Rose Harbor series. So hard to put down and get the house in order. I have read most of your books. Can’t wait for anew one.

So thankful I live just on the other side of Cedar Cove. It truly is amazing here. I found your books while living in Maryland and homesick for Washington. I never imagined I’d be living so close to Cedar Cove!

I loved my visit to Cedar Cove Inn with friends a few years ago. It is a lovely bed and breakfast. Hosts were so friendly and welcoming. Sorry we didn’t see you Debbie when visiting. Keep writing. You have a gift.
August 17th, 2016 at 6:07 am
Huge fan. I did get to meet you a few years ago in the yarn shoppe during Cedar Cove Days. You signed my book and had my picture taken with you. A cherished memory. Thank you.
August 17th, 2016 at 6:36 am
Thank you for writing such lovely books, keep them coming.
I would love to come and see Port Orchard, one day.
August 17th, 2016 at 6:36 am
I have enjoyed all your books and like many others I do retread them. Not sure if I have a
Favorite one. Have enjoyed the Dakota collection, Montana, Blossom street and of course
Cedar Cove. Read all of those before show aired. Sadly someone canceled the show.
Next time I’m in Seattle visiting grandkids and my son I need to check out the inn.
Thank you for giving me new friends on paper.

Debbie, I think you photo you showed us standing by the Cedar Cove sign is a very beautiful you. It is too bad publicity photos are so un-natural and touched up. (make-up perfect, etc) You are truly a talent and just as beautiful inside.
Love,
Joan

Thank you so much for all the books you have written. I love both The Cedar Cove and the Rose Harbour series. Also, The Midnight Sons. Actually, all of your books!
You are able to “hook” the reader right from the beginning! The way you build the characters, makes them family.
I hope someday to visit your lovely town of Port Orchard, aka Cedar Cove. I love the beauty of the ocean and mountains, it’s breath taking!!
Keep writing, and I’ll keep reading!

I bought my first Debbie Macomber romance when visited England. Actually, I bought three, not only one.
I loved and love all your books, especially Cedar Cove series. If I could visit the place one day, I wouldn’t hesitate to go there.
August 17th, 2016 at 1:59 pm
will Halmark ever finish Cedar Coves, I was not impressed with the way they chose to end the series..
August 17th, 2016 at 7:02 pm
it’s on my bucket list to visit Port Orchard (aka Cedar Cover). Hope I make it there someday.
August 20th, 2016 at 2:54 am
Can’t wait to meet you at the Alderbrook Reaort & Spa I in October and For sure my husband and I wil make it a point to come back to Wasahington to visit Port Orchard (Cedar Cove) and all of the sho[ps mentioned in your books. Love reading your books, I got one friend hooked and my other neighbor has read just about all of your books. See you in October. . . . .

Debbie,
I appreciate your talent in character development. My favorite series will probably always be Blossom Street because that is the first time I read one of your books. I had moved in with my mom to take care of her so she could stay in her home as she went through her last final battle with Cancer. My sister loaned me the book that had been loaned to her by her friend Joy. It was a sweet time for me to be with my mom through those final months of her days so Blossom Street is a part of that sweet memory.

I have just finished reading Sweet Tomorrows and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My son lives in Bremerton, WA and I’ve had the opportunity to drive through Port Orchard. In one paragraph of the book it mentions the Bremerton Shipyard and the character Nick. I had to send a picture of that to my son as his name is Nick. He found it very coincidental. I have been reading your books for many years and recently got my mom hooked on them as well. We both love them! Keep on writing!!
August 22nd, 2016 at 1:51 pm
Just love all of your books–so wholesome–and refreshing in this day and age! Thanks so much, keep writing and I would love the opportunity to meet you in Florida during the winter. We are in Deltona from Dec. thru April. Peg

Love all of your books–so wholesome! Would love to meet you in person during the winter.
August 24th, 2016 at 8:44 pm
I just finished reading Sweet Tomorrows and I absolutely loved it!!! That very same day I went online and ordered 5 more of your books. I really didn’t read many romance novels until I started reading your Rose Harbor series and now I’m hooked!!!

My husband and I are planning a trip to the Seattle area September 10 -18, 2016. I was so excited to see that there really is a Yarn shop called, “A Good Yarn”. I am a late bloomer in reading your books, but now that I’ve started, I can’t seem to stop and not that I want to. Your books grab me and won’t let go until I reach for the next one. A great thing about your books is that even though many of them are in a series, the stories stand alone (should the next one in the series is not available right away).
What are your store hours and is your shop open on Sunday? I’ve been knitting for about 57 years and I would love to meet you and share knitting tales. I can only hope you are there when we get to your store.

I got a late start in reading . I hadn’t read since High School. I was introduced to your books by my sister. That sure started my mind to liking to read again..So…I am getting a late start in catching up with everyone and not always reading the newer ones. I loved the Cedar Cove and Blossom Street Series. I hope that you keep on sharing for a very long time. You have such a wonderful talent. I want to be able to visit to meet you, the Cedar Cove Inn, the yarn Shop and the Tea Room. I want to see the whole town. Maybe I will win sometime to stay at the Cedar Inn. I wish I like to knit. I just crochet. So..I want to buy some of your yarn.
