Need Feedback on Jekyll Island Campground

I just made reservations for Memorial Day week at Jekyll Island Campground. We have reservations for Site B10, a full hookup 50A site. I cannot locate any pictures of the site or get a clear view of the campground from Google (too much tree cover). We are driving a longbed 3500 RAM crewcab dually pulling a 38ft Carriage Cameo 5th wheel with 3 slides. I just wanted to make sure that we could fit comfortable in this site. It appears to be a shorter site on the map, but the reservation desk said we should be fine. It is sized for a 45' unit and there is additional room for our truck that is not included in that. Anyone familiar with this site and park? Not a lot of flexibility on Memorial Day so before we do the long drive, I want to make sure we fit. Thanks

    I've recently driven through this CG to check it out, and maybe it's just me, but I don't like it. It was raining, so very muddy. The sites look close and cramped, and nothing separates them. Google the CG name and then click on the images link. The park gets good reviews, but again, not my idea of a nice CG.

    The better options - IMO in that area are Crooked River State park and Ft. McAllister State park.

    See both here

    Of course, the positives are the water park and site seeing on the island. Not a whole lot to do at the CG.

    This is a view of the row you will be in. I personally don't like the campground for bigger rigs because of all the trees. You can fit and will be fine just take your time: See it
