I think it depends greatly on the when and where of your travels. For coming up on weekends, I'd never go near Meredith again. The traffic was pretty bad 20 years ago, and has only gotten worse. Yes, there have always been shortcuts, but they only help so much.
Obviously it's a lot different living there rather than visiting on peak days. Gilford provides for great access to many venues. I'd much prefer to be there from a boating standpoint, and the mountains are also close by. My vote is towards the Gilford end of things.
