We asked Cottage Life’s editor-in-chief, Michelle Kelly, for her 7 top picks from fall 2024’s Amazon Prime Days. Here are the deals that she wants to score:

I’ve heard that this blender is as good as the ever-popular Vitamix, but at a fraction of the cost—especially at 35 per cent off. For the last few years, we’ve used ours for daily smoothies as well as the occasional soup recipe and it’s still churning along like new. Will come in handy for Margarita season too, me thinks.

This portable crib was an absolute workhouse for us during the toddler years, when we were often (happily) schlepping two kiddos back and forth to a cottage on the weekends. This is a great deal at almost 50 per cent off, so it’s a good time to snap one up for grandkids, friends’ kids, or any other wee visitor to your lakeside abode.

Perhaps you’ve heard of this new sport, Pickleball? Duh, who hasn’t? Over the past few summers, I’ve seen this fun game sweep across cottage country. My next door neighbour even built a court at her cottage; this pack of 100 balls would be the perfect hosting gift for her. They are 45 per cent off!

As a newish dog-owner, I’m finding that things are a bit…grittier than usual inside, with sandy paws and such creating a mess to pick up after. Having a powerful vacuum on hand makes a big difference—a real sanity saver. Great for the car and boat too. It’s 32 per cent off.

We love a good cooler bag for days on the trail, in the boat, or even just on the dock. Yeti products are super reliable and worth the price—especially when they are 30 per cent off, like this little red lunch bag.

Take things up another notch by investing in this Rambler, for when you want to stroll to your neighbour’s with an evening cocktail or glass of wine.

This seems bonkers to me, but honestly very useful! Flashlight gloves.
