This just in: The Canadian cottage that served as the emotional fulcrum for the hit hockey series Heated Rivalry is officially opening to visitors. On March 3, 2026, Barlochan Cottage, the three‑bedroom property where those cottage scenes were actually filmed, will be bookable as a vacation home on Airbnb for $248.10 CAD—about $181 USD—per night. If those numbers sound familiar, they should: Shane Hollander, played by Hudson Williams, wears jersey number 24 while Ilya Rozanov, portrayed by Connor Storrie, dons number 18.
Although Shane’s cottage in the show is said to be located outside of Montreal, Quebec, Barlochan Cottage can be found in the Muskokas, Ontario’s lake-lined cottage country beloved by tony Torontonians and international A-listers alike. The two-story home, which was built in 2020 by Canadian architect Trevor McIvor and previously served as a private property, sits at the end of a narrow, tree-hugging road that opens onto a lake and stretches of northern sky. In the Heated Rivalry season finale, this seclusion shapes many defining (and tension-heavy) moments between the pro-hockey-playing protagonists, from free-flowing conversations in the living room to cuddles around the firepit and deep, reflective pauses by the water.
If you secure a booking, you can expect a stay as stunning as the moment Scott Hunter called Kip down to the ice. Three bedrooms, all with king beds, branch off a central living area oriented toward both a wall-mounted TV and walls of glass overlooking the lake. The living room, oriented toward both a television and walls of windows, is picture-perfect—and the site of several memorable scenes. As for the kitchen, wide counters and a central island can accommodate late-night tuna melts, casual burgers, and post-workout smoothies with extra bananas.
All in all, it’s a minimalist-chic escape, where mornings bring sunlight across the warm wood floors, afternoons soften over the lake, and evenings stretch into hot tub soaks and rounds of firepit s’mores. Whether you watched the show or not, this is a bucket-list property in one of Ontario’s most beautiful enclaves. And if you are a fan of Rachel Reid and her popular Game Changers book series, the cottage offers the chance to occupy a space where story, setting, and everyday life intersect.
Ready to sign on the dotted line? The property will be bookable on Airbnb starting March 3 at 12:00 p.m. ET—but it surely won’t be available for long.
