Ilya Rozanov’s coming to the cottage? No, we’re all coming to the cottage.
Fans of the Crave–HBO Max series Heated Rivalry can now stay at Shane Hollander’s Canadian cottage, Airbnb announced Tuesday. Located in Muskoka, Canada, the cottage will be available to book on Airbnb starting on March 3 at 9 a.m. PT.
Reservations for the lakeside home are priced at $248.10 per night, in local currency. The price being a nod to the hockey numbers for the show’s two main characters — Hudson Williams’ Shane Hollander and Connor Storrie’s Ilya Rozanov.
The cottage became a central part of Heated Rivalry thanks to the show’s heartfelt and swoon-worthy finale, which takes place entirely at the cottage, and thanks to Storrie’s now-iconic line — “I’m coming to the cottage” — from the show’s fifth episode.

Heated Rivalry, produced by Bell Media for Canadian streamer Crave, airs on HBO Max in the U.S. It centers on the fictional hockey universe found in Rachel Reid’s Game Changers book series, focusing on two rival professional players — Canada-born Shane Hollander (Williams) of the fictitious Montreal Metros and Russia-born Ilya Rozanov (Storrie) of the fictitious Boston Raiders. The series follows the pair as they navigate an increasingly complicated yet deeply romantic near-decade long secret affair.
Crave renewed Heated Rivalry for a second season, and HBO Max confirmed it will continue to air the series. Jacob Tierney — who created the series for television, serving as the sole writer and director for the show’s entire first season — has confirmed that he’ll return to direct season two. However, he told The Hollywood Reporter ahead of Heated Rivalry’s finale that he was considering the possibility “that other writers will come in to help” him out for the next season, but that he wasn’t sure yet.
Reid has announced that she’ll be publishing her seventh book in the Game Changers series, Unrivaled. The book is slated to be the next chapter in Shane and Ilya’s story. It was expected to hit shelves on Sept. 29, however, Reid announced Tuesday that the novel has been pushed to June 2027.
