If you’re a fan of HBO’s Emmy and Golden Globe Award winning show Succession, we hope some of the locations from Season 2, Episode 6 “Argestes” looked familiar to you (don’t worry, no spoilers, but if you’re not caught up you may skip the photos for now). The show shot on location here at our beloved cabin in the Adirondacks – affectionately referred to as “The Lodge.” Below we’re sharing scenes of The Roy family in action that you may recognize if you’ve dined at our delicious Adirondacks restaurant, along the Artisans deck, or if you’ve stayed in our luxurious Lake Placid hotel and cabins.

Browse the gallery below to check out scenes from the episode or explore Nicholas Braun (cousin Greg’s) behind-the-scenes photo diary of the shows shooting locations on VanityFair.com, (you should recognize a shot of our lakeside pavilion from the shoot).

Check out the “Argestes” trailer and be sure to watch the full episode to see our close up.
