I wouldn’t know if there is still availability but last year I was late booking and i found a place quite easily in the town of Easton. I tihnk it was tha days inn and was pretty popular with eagleman competitors. although it isn’t in cambridge itself the drive is only 15mins or so and parking is plentiful very close to transition (even though last year they moved parking further away than normal due to the excessive rain it was still only 5mins walk). try looking on expedia.com for places in easton - there is a whole bunch of motels on the main route to cambridge.
If all else fails, you can do what I did last year. Drove over to the school where they allow you to camp, parked in the parking lot, and slept in my truck. It’s only one night. I’ll be there again this year - good luck!!!
Check out the website for host housing, if you are interested. I was fortunate enough to stay at my brother’s house when I did eagleman a few years ago. I’ve heard the host housing thing is a pretty good deal. From what I’ve heard, you stay in someone’s house in the town that may or may not be there for the weekend. A few other triathletes might be staying there, as well. Check it out. It might be worth at least a look. Other than that, there must be some hotels 20-30 mins down the road somewhere. Good luck in the race. It’s a good one.
hey…i just made my res about 2 weeks ago, so hopefully there will be something there…i’m staying at the Hampton Inn in Salisbury. The number is 410-334-3080. Its 30 minutes from the race, but its the closest i could find. If you get a room let me know, and I’ll c ya there.
