Ok congradultaions on learning to drive your rig in tight places.
Now to play devils advocate, what if the perfect line you attempted turned out to be not so perfect and you are now forced to unhook your toad while half-in you site and in a bind. You will in most cases now be blocking the campground road for several minutes or more while others are trying to use that same road, that's a good way to endear yourself to your fellow campers.
I bring up this point because twice I have been blocked by people who "just missed" that perfect line and spent many minutes, one was 20, trying to get un-hooked and out of the way.
Usually pays to think more about what happens if a plan goes wrong than right
Yes, paranoid thinking is always the way to enjoy your trips. There are a million things that can go wrong with any trip and you cannot avoid all of them. The OP did the RIGHT thing, considering his coach and his driving ability. To speculate on a bunch of "the sky is falling" scenarios is just ridiculous. The fact that someone was blocked in by a driver that did not know what he was doing has absolutely no bearing on drivers that DO know what they are doing. I have seen RV owners get stuck in fueling stations where hundreds of other RV owners go into every day without a problem. Some people just can't drive their rigs, period. The only way to avoid bad drivers is to stay home. The OP knew what he had to do and did it, end of story.
