I've never been, but all I can say is look now and get something ASAP. It only gets harder closer to the date, and from what I hear much of the lodging in that area gets sold out pretty quick. And since the race filled some months back... good luck!

One idea might be to find a place and split it with the 4 of you or something...

Want to go cheap? There are some great camp sites not foar from town (4 to 6 ) miles. you should still be able to get in those.
I've been at IMLP 4 of the last 5 years to race or vol...it has gotten harder every year to get a place unless you are there the day after the race.
An Example: We stayed at the Golden Arrow this year. The day after the race reservations were accepted, in person only. No online reservations allowed. People started lining up at 2am!
If you really want a room...call around in Late March early April...I got a place one year when someone canceled.

Thanks for the list Gary

I'm shooting for staying from July 18-21, possibly bringing a friend but definitely going myself. I'm all for splitting a room with people or even doing the camping thing (been so long since Boy Scouts). Any other solid-ish numbers or preferences?
