I have been going to Gifford for 30 years. It has always been good. I will be there in the group site over Labor Day weekend.
When I left on Wednesday and went to dump my tanks at the dump station, I could not as it was overflowing with waste. Extremely
disappointed. There was at best 15 campers at the campground so I wonder how it was full. I hope that does not happen again.

Restrooms were very nice. Sites on the beach do not have much shade and all sites are pretty tight in together.

Gifford is one of my new favorite place to camp. I'm not sure why I've never been. It was very clean and quiet during the week. The bathrooms with the flush toilets and running water were a game changer. I can't wait to go back.

Nice campground with flush toilets, outdoor shower, paved spots, water spigot, RV dump/water. Access to and expansive views of lake from most spots. However, many sites are arranged such that they are tight with others and lacking adequate privacy/personal area. Also, noise from the ferry is fairly constant from early to late.
Stayed in site #13 on a Mon in Aug. Nearly empty campground.
