We have done exactly that ... it is so nice to know before arriving what size the site is plus from what direction we needed to be coming in order to easily back into a Host/Volunteer spot
At one state campground we arrived while the previous Host was leaving, and they advised us to not go into the site like they did, but to go in so that our rig would be angled differently.
Stepping out and looking around, we could see that it was one thing to back into the site, but quite another to pull directly out due to the fact that the Host site was in the state campground's cabin area. Area not designed for general camping.
