First is to contact your state and national associatoins. CampCal Now , and ARVC Do not even think of building a camp without the guidance of these regulatory bodies helping you.
NHPA guidelines are not law, are helpful in design.
to answer your simple questions, Less is more. The expansion in size, of RVs (yes a trailer is an rv) demands more space, L x W so less units will occupy your land, but at lower cost and demand on utility.
Trends today with slides and awninggs demand a minimum of 40' width post to post, with todays 45' MHs and 5ers with tow and toys mean that with disconnect , unload 80' is the mean length of a pull through
Site sizing at this time is the foremost of your issues, I would say that 5 acres is not enough to open enough sites to make it a profitable venture.
