Is 27' too long?

We are considering down-sizing from a 32' fifth-wheel to a smaller bumper pull trailer. We'd still like a trailer large enough for longer trips (3-5 weeks) but, small enough to allow us to get into some smaller camping areas. 27'(bumper to hitch) seems to be a popular size. My question is for those of you with this size trailer; does the trailer length cause any access problems for you?

    I down sized from a 35ft fifth wheel to a 30ft/tongue to bumper trailer. In my opinion 30ft is max to get into the areas I go. So far, I've got it everywhere I wanted to camp.

    I had some issues with the big fifth wheel getting it into the places I wanted to be and getting it out.
