For me, the cleric and druid have almost completely different spell sets. The druid has a lot of interesting spells that the cleric can't have. Spiked growth/stones, insect plague, conjure elementals, and creeping doom to name a few.

The only problem I'm having is deciding what to leave behind. I've never played a party that didn't have a little of everything in it. This is basically impossible to do with a smaller party. I have two choices, put some multiclasses in there to cover my bases, and essentially mute the leveling benefits of a larger party, or go without a lot.

I don't think having a smaller party, and only have 1-2 extra levels is worth it. But if you do a small 3 PC single classed party, you could generally be looking at an extra 4-6 levels, which is pretty nice. With only 3 single-classed PCs though, I'd be leaving behind a lot.
